The Remarkable Transformation of Agricultural and Forestry Waste
Biomass pellets are made from what can be considered nature's "leftovers," primarily from three categories:
Crop residues: Rice husks, corn stalks, cotton stalks, etc.
Forestry by-products: Sawdust, branches, bark, etc.
Processing waste: Peanut shells, coconut shells, sugarcane bagasse, etc.
After crushing, drying, and compressing these raw materials, the calorific value can reach over 4000 kcal/kg, equivalent to 70% of ordinary coal.
Three Key Aspects of Raw Material Processing
Moisture control: Raw materials need to be dried to a moisture content of less than 12%, otherwise it will affect the molding process.
Particle size: Crushing to a particle size of 3-5mm is most conducive to compression molding.
Impurity removal: Foreign objects such as metal and stones will damage the molding die.
Double Value: Environmental Protection and Economic Benefits
1 ton of biomass pellets can replace 0.6 tons of standard coal, while simultaneously reducing:
Carbon dioxide emissions by 1.5 tons
Sulfur dioxide emissions by 4.5 kg
Nitrogen oxide emissions by 3.2 kg
