1. The working principle of dried wood pallets biomass pellet processing equipment

The core principle of wood pellet processing equipment, such as wood chip pellet mills, is to convert biomass feedstock into high-density pellet fuel through mechanical compression. The basic process involves three steps: feedstock pretreatment (crushing, pulverizing, and drying), mechanical compression, and finished product processing (cooling and packaging). For example, in a vertical ring die pellet mill, a motor connected to a reducer via a coupling drives the ring die. The feedstock enters the compression zone under gravity, where rollers squeeze the material into the ring die holes. After forming the pellets in the die, a cutter cuts them into pellets of fixed lengths.

2. Characteristics of dried wood pallets biomass pellet processing equipment

(1) High-strength crushing/smashing system to cope with "large block + hard" raw materials

Wood pallets are mostly whole boards (usually 1.2m×1.0m, 1.1m×1.1m in size), and some are plywood and solid wood hard materials. The crusher needs to have high torque and wear resistance

(2) High-efficiency impurity removal device to accurately separate "metal + non-metal" impurities

The key pain point of wood pallet processing is "containing metal nails and plastic accessories". The equipment usually integrates a multi-stage impurity removal system to ensure the purity of the particles

(3) Wide range of moisture content adaptation to reduce drying energy consumption

Wood pallets have different storage environments and large differences in moisture content (15%-30%). The drying system of the equipment (mostly a drum hot air dryer) can achieve precise temperature control (80-120℃) and humidity adjustment, stabilizing the moisture content of wood chips at 10%-15% (the optimal humidity for pelletizing)

(4)Wood pallet pellet processing requires multiple steps:

crushing → impurity removal → pulverization → drying → pelletizing → cooling → screening. Equipment typically comes in the form of a complete production line, with core features including a consistent process flow and a high degree of automation.

3. Application scenarios of dried wood pallets biomass pellet processing equipment

Wood pellets (also known as "biomass pellet fuel") are a key alternative to traditional fossil fuels like coal and heavy oil due to their high combustion efficiency, low pollution emissions, and convenient storage and transportation. They are also the most popular application for wood pallet pellet processing equipment, including:

(1).Industrial Boiler/Kiln Fuel:

Small and medium-sized boilers (steam boilers and hot water boilers) in the food processing, textile, chemical, and building materials industries, as well as heating equipment such as ceramic and glass kilns, can directly use wood pallet pellets (with a calorific value of approximately 4200-4800 kcal/kg, similar to medium-quality coal).

(2).Residential Heating/Household Energy:

Wood pallet pellets can be used as fuel for household biomass heating stoves and fireplaces. The pellets burn stably (no black smoke or odor) and are automatically fed through a dedicated hopper, eliminating the need for frequent refills. Furthermore, some catering businesses (such as small restaurants) use them to replace liquefied petroleum gas for heating, reducing energy costs. 

(3).Power Plant Supplemental Fuel:

Some biomass power plants mix wood pallet pellets with other biomass fuels, such as straw and sawdust, for power generation or combined heat and power (cogeneration) (generating both electricity and steam). The high density of wood pallet pellets (0.8-1.2 g/cm³) reduces transportation and storage space, lowering raw material storage costs for power plants. Furthermore, the high purity of the wood fiber (free of sand and impurities found in straw) reduces the risk of boiler slagging.

TONY Brand 15Ton/Hour Dried Wood Pallets Pellet Manufacturing Plant can take dried wood pallets, various types of wood - related biomass materials, such as branches, small - diameter logs, and wood shavings. After pretreatment and processing, dried wood pallets is solidified into high - density wood pellet fuel.The content of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides produced by biomass pellets during combustion is extremely low, and the dust emission is also low, which can effectively reduce air pollution. Moreover, the raw material sources of biomass pellets are very wide, and the combustion efficiency is high. Compared with traditional fossil energy, it reduces the production and use costs and has higher economic efficiency. It has received a lot of attention and promotion.

How to ensure the stability and sustainability of the raw material supply chain for pallet pellet projects?

Dry pallets are the core raw material, and their supply stability directly determines the life and death of the project. Raw material sustainability must be achieved through "multiple channels + resource expansion + cost lock-in":

1. Establish a diversified recycling network to avoid single dependence

(1)Sign long-term recycling agreements with local and surrounding logistics parks, manufacturing factories, and e-commerce warehousing companies (such as waste wooden pallets in the home appliance, furniture, and machinery industries), clarify the recycling price, frequency, and quality standards (such as no mold, no heavy metal pollution, no chemical coating), and avoid the interruption of raw material supply due to the loss of a single customer.

(2)Expand "supplementary raw material" channels: If the supply of some pallets is insufficient, other agricultural and forestry waste (such as sawdust, straw, and branches) can be used in combination. By optimizing the formula (such as dry pallet fragments accounting for 60%-80%, mixed sawdust improves formability), the dependence on a single raw material can be reduced, while meeting the raw material standards of biomass pellets. 

2. Control raw material costs and transportation radius

(1)Raw material transportation costs usually account for 15%-25% of the total cost. The recycling radius needs to be controlled within 50-100 kilometers (adjusted according to the regional raw material density) to avoid long-distance transportation resulting in excessive costs.

(2)Agree on a "tiered price" with raw material suppliers: when the monthly recycling volume reaches a certain scale, give price discounts; or sign a "long-term fixed price agreement" to avoid the cost risks brought by fluctuations in wood raw material prices (such as the increase in pallet recycling prices during the peak season).

3. Establish a raw material reserve and pretreatment system

(1)Build a standardized raw material warehouse (ventilated, moisture-proof, and fire-proof) to reserve at least 1-2 months of raw material consumption to cope with the surge in demand during the peak season or sudden recycling interruptions (such as factory shutdowns and epidemic control).

(2)Add a "sorting + impurity removal" process in the pretreatment stage: remove impurities in the dry pallet by manual or mechanical means (such as magnetic separators to remove nails, vibrating screens to remove mud and sand) to avoid damage to subsequent pelletizing equipment and improve the purity of pellet fuel (reducing ash content).

1. Outstanding Environmental Protection and Low Carbon Emissions

Carbon Neutral: Wood pellet fuel is derived from wood processing waste (such as wood chips and sawdust) and is a biomass energy source. The carbon dioxide absorbed during plant growth is roughly balanced by the carbon dioxide released during combustion, making it a "carbon-neutral" energy source, significantly reducing its contribution to the greenhouse effect.

Low Pollutant Emissions: Compared to coal, wood pellets produce extremely low levels of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides (often far below environmental standards) when burned, and dust emissions are also low, effectively reducing air pollution and meeting increasingly stringent environmental regulations.

2. Wide Source of Raw Materials and Controllable Costs

Abundant Raw Materials: The main raw materials are scraps, wood chips, sawdust, branches, and bark generated during wood processing. These materials are readily available and stable in forestry, furniture manufacturing, and papermaking. They can even be "turned waste into treasure," reducing the environmental impact of landfills or incineration.

Cost Advantages: The raw materials are mostly industrial waste, resulting in relatively low procurement costs. Furthermore, some regions offer subsidies for biomass energy projects, further reducing production and usage costs. Compared to other energy sources like natural gas and fuel oil, biomass energy is economical.

3. High Combustion Efficiency and Efficient Energy Utilization

High Density: Wood pellets are compressed and formed, resulting in a density significantly higher than that of raw wood or sawdust (typically 1.1-1.3 tons/cubic meter). They are less prone to loosening during combustion, maintaining a stable combustion state and a long-lasting flame. They also offer high thermal efficiency (typically exceeding 85%, compared to the 40%-50% of loose firewood).

Stable Combustion: The pellets have a regular shape and uniform size, facilitating automated feeding and combustion control. They can be precisely adjusted with a matching pellet stove, reducing energy waste and making them suitable for applications requiring a stable heat source.

4. Convenient Storage and Transportation

Small Size: Compressed pellets are only 1/5-1/8 the volume of raw sawdust, significantly saving storage space. They can be stored in bags or in bulk, eliminating the need for specialized storage facilities, making them suitable for homes, businesses, and other environments.

Low Transportation Costs: The high density allows for higher energy transport per unit volume, improving transportation efficiency and reducing transportation costs. Furthermore, the pellets are resistant to moisture (some products are treated to prevent moisture), minimizing loss during transportation.

5. Diverse Application Scenarios

Civilian Applications: They can be used for home heating and cooking (using devices such as pellet fireplaces and pellet stoves). They are simple and clean to operate, replacing traditional coal and firewood to improve the indoor environment.

Industrial Applications: They can be used as boiler fuel to provide steam or hot water for factories, hotels, and hospitals. In agriculture, they can be used for greenhouse heating and drying agricultural products (such as grains and medicinal herbs).

Power Generation: They can be used as fuel in biomass power plants, either mixed with coal or burned alone to generate electricity, contributing to the transformation of the energy structure.
