Biomass refers to all organic matter that can serve as an energy source, including agricultural by-products, forestry waste, and certain types of industrial waste. The key aspect of biomass is its renewable nature, allowing energy production in a sustainable manner. Pellet machines enable us to harness the energy potential of these raw materials effectively.
Pellet machines, also known as pellet mills, are central to the pellet production process. These machines compress loose biomass material into dense, efficient fuel pellets. These pellets are significantly more efficient and cleaner compared to the raw materials from which they are derived.
Each machine consists of a feed hopper, a conditioner, a pelletizing chamber, and a discharge area. Biomass is introduced into the machine via the feed hopper and is conditioned with heat, which helps bind the materials together. The heat-treated biomass then enters the pelletizing chamber, where it undergoes transformation. The biomass is subjected to extreme pressure and high temperatures as it is forced through a die, compressing it into small cylindrical pellets.
