Biomass Wood Pellets for Clean, Renewable Energy
Our earth’s fragile eco-system is under a threat as human activities deplete it in an enormous rate. The massive surge in industrialization, growing population and over consumption has resulted in huge consumption of precious resources like forests, water bodies, fertile soil and biodiversity. So, an alternative is very much needed that may not disturb but instead helps to recycle waste materials and provides fuel sustainably. This is only possible through efficient management of available resources.
A New and Sustainable Alternative for Clean Energy: Biomass Wood Pellets
Biomass wood pellets are an excellent alternative for
clean energy. They are produced by compressing forest industry residues into
pellets, and they become more energy dense. Raw materials like wood chips and
sawdust do not produce high energy density as they store less energy in
comparison to coal or diesel. As an important feature in power generation, wood
pellets have a very low moisture content, giving them high combustion
efficiency. This fuel is dense in the context of energy generation.
We at Ecostan biofuels are processing
biomass: including wood shavings, plant residue from agriculture and forests to
turn into important, renewable and environment friendly fuel. These are known
as Briquettes and Pellets which are a great substitute for steam coal. Ecostan
uses high-quality briquetting and pelletizing machines with close monitoring to
ensure top quality Biomass Pellets that generates minimum ash residue.
How Are Biomass Pellets Made?
Biomass
wood pellets are
produced at a biomass plant. The wood that is not fit for other
factories like sawmill residue are accumulated together. Then the sawdust is
converted into fiber of an equal length by hammering at a hammering mill. At
the next point, the strands are moistened with steam. After that, the fibers
are forced through the holes with the help of a pallet machine to form pellets.
The end product is cooled and vacuumed off to remove the loose dust by the
vacuum machine. They are heated to reduce the moisture content and are
compressed at a very high pressure to form solid, small and dense biomass
pellets.

A Renewable Source of energy
These pellets work on a similar
pattern to coal by transforming present coal power houses into renewable
resources of energy. The pellets are crushed into fine powder by grinding mills
and then they are burnt as a fuel in that station’s boiler to generate steam.
That hot vapor then powers the generators to produce electricity. It can be
stored as well as transported in large quantities with their uniform shape and
density. It is
mandatory to keep them dry while transportation and storage. These should be
kept in controlled and monitored conditions to prevent unwanted incidents.
Conclusion
Ecostan being one of the
established names among the Biomass Plant Manufacturing Companies in India that
has been providing clean and renewable Biomass
wood pellets for more than two decades presently. Besides providing best
biofuel solutions. We also provide biomass machines for briquette, palletizing,
chipping, drying for sustained growth and overall enhanced performance. Our
expert team continuously works on collecting necessary information that helps
in raising up the quality of our products. Our vision is to be the world’s most
sought after manufacturers of biofuels known for replacing fossil fuels. Our
mission is to accelerate the use of renewable and sustainable sources for
energy consumption.
