The True Environmental Advantages
Biomass pellets emit only 1/10 the amount of carbon dioxide compared to coal when burned, and their raw materials come from agricultural and forestry waste (such as sawdust and straw), achieving carbon cycle utilization. However, please note:
Complete combustion requires specialized furnaces.
Moist pellets will produce more PM2.5.
Environmental benefits decrease when transportation distance exceeds 200 kilometers.
How to Calculate the Economic Benefits
Currently, the price per ton is 30% higher than loose coal, but the thermal efficiency is increased by 50%:
15% fuel cost savings during the home heating season.
Automated feeding saves labor time.
80% reduction in ash residue reduces cleaning costs.
The key is to choose high-quality pellets with a calorific value > 4000 kcal/kg.
Suitability of Application Scenarios
Most suitable for three situations:
Areas with a stable source of agricultural and forestry waste.
Urban-rural areas requiring clean heating.
Small and medium-sized food processing enterprises.
Avoid:
Low-quality pellets with humidity > 12%.
Old boilers without dust removal equipment.
Small-scale users with daily consumption < 1 ton.
