Agricultural Waste Pellets Production

Agricultural waste particles

Whether a material is calculated for making fuel pellets mainly depending on the following principles. First,the material should have a relative high combustion value. The second is that the combustion value of thematerial should be higher than the cost to process it into fuel pellets. Verified by test, A wide array of agriculturalwaste materials are available to make biomass pellets.

How to turn agricultural waste into treasure?

The use of biomass pellet machines to turn agricultural waste into treasure has become an important means of promoting sustainable development and green transformation in agriculture. The biomass pellet machine converts agricultural waste such as straw, sawdust, rice husks, sawdust, and livestock manure into high-density, high calorific value biomass pellet fuel, which not only achieves efficient resource utilization but also effectively reduces environmental pollution, providing a new solution for the resource utilization of agricultural waste.

Principles and advantages of biomass pellet machine

Biomass pellet machine is a device that compresses loose and amorphous agricultural waste into solid particles with a certain shape and density through mechanical pressure. The core principle is to use high-temperature and high-pressure technology to tightly combine biomass materials that were previously difficult to utilize, forming directly combustible particulate fuels. This granular fuel has the advantages of high calorific value, high combustion efficiency, and low pollution, which can replace traditional coal and oil and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Directions for Agricultural Waste Pellets Production

The agri-waste pellets making procedure is similar to wood pellets making.including raw material collection, raw material crushing, moisture contentcontrol, biomass pelletizing, pellets cooling and packaging. However there aretwo matters you should pay attention in agricultural waste pellets making.

  • A.Binder:Sawdust is a suitable feedstock for pelleting because the lignin naturally in the wood could act as a glue to holdthe pellet together. However this will varies with different agricultural materials, When the materials can’t sticktogether in a pellet machine, it mean that there are not enough lignin in the materials. In this case, you may adda “binder” material to the biomass to help it stick together, or to mix a fraction of sawdust to the raw materials tohelp them stick into pellets.
  • B.Imperative feeder device:The agri-waste materials is commonly in low-density thus it won’t fall into the pelletizing room smoothly. Addingan imperative feeder device to your biomass pellet machine will work and improve the production efficiency.

Agricultural Waste Materials Available for Biomass Fuel Pellets

  • crop stalk: corn stalk, sorghum stalk, sunflower stalk, cotton stalk, mustard stalksoybean stalk, etc.
  • straw materials: rice straw, wheat straw, peanut straw, alfalfa straw, etc.
  • shell material: groundnut shell, peanut shell, coconut shell, sunflower seed shell,rice husk, coffee husk, etc.
  • Other materials: sugarcane bagasse, bamboo dust, tobacco waste, tea waste, etc.

Agricultural Waste Pellets Application Directions

With features of economical, clean, and easy to operate, agricultural waste pellets have got flaming popularity in home and industries. Agricultural waste materials have a higher ash content than wood pellets. In addition, someagricultural materials generate ash that tends to form clumps and deposits at high temperatures. Because of this,most wood pellet stoves are not suitable for burning fuel pellets made from agricultural waste pellets. So aspecially designed “biomass pellet stove” is needed when burning the agricultural waste pellets to avoid jam inpellet burning place.
