Analysis on the Economic Benefits of Biomass Fuel Processed by Small Pellet Mill

When traditional energy is depleted and some new energy cannot be widely promoted due to the influence of climate and environment, more and more people are turning their attention to forestry biomass energy. As a new sustainable energy source, biomass pellets have attracted much attention for their unique economic and ecological advantages. Investment in biomass pellet mills business has also become a new fashion for low-carbon economic development and profit-making.

Small Scale Biomass Pelletizing Plant

Biomass pellet fuel is produced by pressing agricultural and forestry wastes through a biomass pellet mill such as a wood pellet machine or a straw pellet machine. Biomass pellets have attracted much attention due to their unique economic and ecological advantages. More and more people start their pellet processing business by investing in small-scale pellet mills. So, what are the economic and social benefits of biomass fuel processed by small pellet making machines? And what specific matters should be paid attention to when investing in a small-scale pellet plant?  Now,GEMCO Machinery will briefly introduce the above two issues for you.

Analysis on the Economic and Social Benefits of Biomass Fuel

Social Benefits

The pellet fuel processed by small pellet mill has the characteristics of high density, high calorific value, sufficient fuel, low cost, easy to use, clean and hygienic, easy to transport and store, etc. It can be used as a gasifier, heating stove, agricultural greenhouse, boiler and power generation. It can be used as a raw material for the production of biogas, fertilizer, feed and high-density board, etc., and has a wide range of uses. Nowadays, small pellet machine suppliers are increasingly emerging in Japan, the European Union, the United States and other countries and regions.

Economic Benefits

Although the price of biomass fuel is slightly higher than that of coal, its overall economy is the lowest cost energy source other than coal. The cost of pellet fuel processed by small pellet machines is less than half that of natural gas, so the cost advantage of investing in the biomass pellet fuel making industry is obvious.

According to the advantages of the pellets processed by small pellets mill, it is concluded that biomass fuel is a kind of fuel with environmentally friendly emission characteristics. It is a green renewable energy with high calorific value, replacing coal, and its raw material sources are abundant. More importantly,biomass fuel is the lowest cost environmentally friendly energy source except coal.

Specific Matters That Should be Paid Attention to When Investing in a Small Pellet Mill

Construction cost depends on raw materials

The raw materials for pellet production should be considered to use recycled wood or virgin fiber. It is cheaper to use recycled wood. The price of raw materials for small pellet machines depends on the moisture content. The average moisture content is 40%-60%. Therefore, the higher the number, the more expensive the pellet production. The reason is that the high moisture content will bring about the cost of the drying process. So, The moisture content of recycling wood is much less than that of virgin fiber, which is obviously cheaper. Therefore, considering the production capacity of small pellet factories in the future, investors can calculate the raw material costs involved.

Choose a trusted pellet mill supplier

The fact is that more and more pellet mill suppliers are emerging in the world. As a professional manufacturer and supplier of pellet machines and production lines in China, we understand the precautions of investing in pellet machine factories better than most customers. Therefore, when choosing a supplier, you can follow some tips below.

3 Tips of Choosing a Trustable Pellet Making Machine Manufacturer

The impact of plant equipment on costs

• Investors should calculate the cost of raw materials

The pellet production line consists of several units, each of which has different types. The key is that each type of flat-die pelletizing equipment is used to process different raw materials. More importantly, different raw materials require different processing conditions. For example, softwood or hardwood The compression ratio requirements are different. Therefore, choosing the right equipment should take this into consideration.(Read more:Ring Die Pellet Mil >>)

• The important factor to consider is the size of the raw material

Oversized materials cannot be processed by a pellet machine. Therefore, if the wood is too large, a post-crusher crusher is also needed. In this case, the cost of the pellet line unit should also be included in the calculation.

• The output of pellets should be considered

If the expected output of pellets is higher, more expensive equipment needs to be installed. More importantly, equipment with greater production capacity requires a large number of plants, which will obviously increase the construction cost of the plant.
