This article primarily introduces several common knowledge common to those working with biomass pine wood pellet fuel. This information will provide both prospective and existing entrepreneurs with a more intuitive understanding of biomass pellet fuel. We often receive inquiries about basic biomass pellet fuel knowledge. A high number of inquiries indicates a booming industry; a lack of interest suggests a lack of potential. To help fellow biomass pellet fuel professionals learn and communicate more quickly, we have compiled the following biomass pellet fuel knowledge:

1. Calculating Biomass Pellet Production in Tons/Hour

Experienced biomass pine wood pellet fuel manufacturers know that the production capacity of a biomass pellet machine is calculated in tons per hour, not in days or months as many people tend to believe. Why? Because biomass pellet machines require downtime for maintenance, grease refilling, mold changes, and other procedures. Therefore, we can only measure production capacity by the hour. For example, if production is 8-10 hours a day, we produce one ton per hour, and if production is 25 days a month, we can calculate overall production capacity in this manner.

2. Biomass pellet machines have strict requirements for raw material moisture.

For different raw materials, it's best to keep the moisture content around 15%. This moisture content is beneficial for biomass pellet machine molding. Raw materials that are too dry or too wet are not suitable. If the raw materials are naturally low in moisture and high in moisture, it is recommended to install a dryer.

3. Biomass pellet machines also have requirements for raw material diameter.

The raw material diameter for biomass pellet machines must be kept within 1 cm. Larger diameters can easily get stuck in the feed port, hindering the machine's molding process. Therefore, don't throw any raw material into the pellet machine; it will malfunction. Only crush what needs to be crushed.

4. Although the appearance of pellet machines may vary, their underlying principles and structures remain the same.

Currently, the most mature type of pellet machine in China is the ring die pellet machine.

5. Not all pellet machines are suitable for large-scale pellet production.

Currently, the only machine suitable for large-scale pellet production in China is the ring die pellet machine. This type of pellet machine has high production capacity and is suitable for large-scale production. 6. Although biomass pellet fuel is environmentally friendly, poorly controlled production processes can also cause pollution.

The biomass pellet fuel we produce is an environmentally friendly, renewable, clean energy source. However, environmental awareness is also required during the production process. For example, the pellet machine consumes electricity and produces dust during processing. Therefore, biomass pellet plants must effectively manage dust and reduce energy consumption.

7. Biomass pellet fuel comes in a wide variety of raw materials.

The types of raw materials that can be used for biomass pellet fuel are: pine, miscellaneous wood, wood chips, peanut shells, rice husks, sawdust, Scots pine, poplar, redwood, shavings, straw, pure wood, fir, wood, pure wood chips, reeds, pure pine, wood, solid wood, hard miscellaneous wood, husks, oak, cypress, pine miscellaneous wood, bamboo chips, psammophila, wood powder, bamboo powder, caragana, miscellaneous wood shavings, fruit wood, elm, furfural residue, larch, templates, jujube, birch, sawdust shavings, red pine, biomass, cypress, logs, furfural, pure pine sawdust, round wood, miscellaneous wood, solid wood shavings, elm, pine powder, pine red material, rice, charcoal base, demolition wood, poplar, corn stalks, red miscellaneous wood, hard miscellaneous wood shavings, shavings sawdust, peach wood, sawdust, miscellaneous wood sawdust, radiata pine, jujube branches, corn cobs Wood scraps, redwood chaff, flax, pine sawdust, pine sawdust, miscellaneous wood chips, bamboo sawdust, wood, wood shavings, bagasse, empty palm fruit bunches, willow, gorgon shells, eucalyptus, walnut, fir sawdust, pear wood, rice husks, Pinus chinensis, waste wood, cotton stalks, applewood, pure wood pellets, coconut shell fragments, hardwood, beech, hawthorn, miscellaneous wood, reed grass, caragana shrubs, template sawdust, bamboo sawdust, camphor, firewood, pure wood, cypress pine, Russian pine, pine and miscellaneous wood, sawdust, hardwood and miscellaneous wood, sunflower shells, palm shells, bamboo sawdust, pine shavings, bamboo, burning, oak powder, miscellaneous wood, redwood. Seeing so many raw materials, isn't it eye-opening? Currently, the mainstream pellets on the market are still made from pine, miscellaneous wood, peanut shells, rice husks, etc.

8. Not all pellet coking is caused by pellet fuel.

Biomass pellets burn differently in different boilers, and some may coke. The cause of coking is not only related to the raw materials, but also to the boiler design and boiler operator's operation.

9. Biomass pellets come in a variety of diameters.

Currently, biomass pellets on the market primarily come in diameters of 8 mm, 10 mm, and 6 mm, with 8 and 10 mm being the most common. 6 mm is primarily used as fireplace fuel.
