1. The working principle of dried hay/grass/alfalfa biomass pellet processing equipment

Dried hay/grass/alfalfa hay processing equipment is mainly used to convert agricultural and forestry waste such as alfalfa hay into high-density pellet fuel or feed. The raw materials need to be pre-treated: dried and then crushed. If used for feed processing, concentrated feed and additives can be added and mixed as needed.

2. Characteristics of dried hay/grass/alfalfa biomass pellet processing equipment

(1) Output Adaptability: A single pellet mill can produce 0.8-5 tons per hour, suitable for the needs of small and medium-sized ranches.

(2) Raw Material Compatibility: It can process various forages such as alfalfa, tamarisk, and straw, without complex pretreatment.

(3) Automation and Durability: Equipped with a variable frequency feeding system and an automatic lubrication system, the alloy steel ring die has a long service life and is easy to maintain.

(4) High Efficiency and Energy Saving: It eliminates the drying process, resulting in low energy consumption and stable output.

(5) Multifunctional Adaptability: It can produce cattle and sheep feed, biomass fuel, etc., making it a multi-purpose machine.

3. Application scenarios of dried hay/grass/alfalfa biomass pellet processing equipment

(1) Application Method: Farms can equip their premises with small pellet mills (0.8-2 tons per hour) to grind dry hay/grass/alfalfa into pellets based on daily feed intake. The pellets can be processed and used on the same day, or stored for a short period (1-2 months) to prevent the feed from becoming damp and spoiling.

(2) Reasons for Suitability: Small and medium-sized farms (such as beef cattle farms and sheep farms) can purchase dry hay/grass/alfalfa at a lower cost than wet feed (eliminating the risk of wet feed transportation losses). Furthermore, dry feed can be stored as needed, and processing with equipment eliminates the need for complex drying processes, resulting in simple operation and low energy consumption.

TONY Brand 15-18 TPH Dried Hay/Grass/Alfalfa Line can process dried grass and various biomass materials related to agricultural waste into biomass pellets. Grass processed into biomass pellets has a wide range of uses. As fuel: Grass pellets can be used as fuel for power plant boilers, industrial boilers, and residential heating. Its calorific value is similar to coal, but it is cheaper and produces fewer pollutants during combustion, making it a more environmentally friendly fuel. As animal feed: Grass pellets processed by a grass pellet mill can be used as livestock feed. This method can make full use of grass, reduce feed costs, and also help solve the problem of grass disposal. These uses can not only effectively use agricultural waste, reduce environmental pollution, but also create economic benefits and promote sustainable agricultural development.

1. Capacity: 15-18 Ton/Hour

2. Raw materials: Dried Hay/Grass/Alfalfa

3. Moisture: About 10-15%

4. Application: All kinds of  biomass materials suitable for pellet production.

Suitable customers: Green energy companies, agricultural cooperatives, and small - scale rural processing units that have ready access to dried grass and related agricultural residues.

5. Finished Pellets Markets: The core applications of grass pellets revolve around two main directions: "clean energy substitution" and "feed supplementation," covering diverse scenarios such as industrial heating, agricultural breeding, and residential heating. This not only solves the pollution problem caused by grass waste but also provides low-cost energy and feed resources.

1. Project Core Background and Advantages

Dried hay/grass/alfalfa is a high-quality feed ingredient due to its high protein content and palatability. Processing it into pellets can extend its shelf life (6-12 months), improve transportation efficiency by over 30%, and meet the standardized feed needs of large-scale farming. Furthermore, it can benefit from agricultural industrialization and ecological project subsidies.

2. Typical Cost-Benefit Analysis

Investment: Investment in small to medium-sized production line equipment, including drying, pelleting, and auxiliary equipment.

Raw Materials: The purchase price of dry hay/grass/alfalfa is relatively low; processing it into pellets increases its added value by 40%-60%.

Risks: Attention should be paid to raw material price fluctuations (such as seasonal shortages) and market competition due to a single feed product structure.

Grass pellet feed: Emphasizing "nutritional attributes," it prioritizes palatability and nutrient retention. Its characteristics revolve around "nutrition, safety, and easy digestibility," primarily serving the needs of herbivorous animal husbandry.

1. Nutritional indicators meet livestock needs: 

When using high-quality alfalfa as raw material, the crude protein content can reach 15%-20%, and the crude fiber 25%-30%, meeting the basic nutritional needs of ruminants such as cattle and sheep. The formula can be adjusted by adding corn flour, minerals, etc., to suit animals at different growth stages (such as calves and fattening cattle).

2. Processing technology emphasizes nutrient retention:

Low-temperature pelleting (temperature ≤80℃) avoids high-temperature damage to core nutrients such as protein and vitamins; the finer particle size (1-3mm) increases animal digestibility and absorption by 15%-20% compared to loose hay, reducing feed waste.

3. Significant safety and usage advantages: 

Raw materials are strictly screened, with mold rate controlled below 0.5% to avoid residues of toxins such as aflatoxin; the uniform particle shape facilitates precise control of feeding amount, and it is not prone to dust, which can improve the farm environment.
