Small Pellet Plants For Wood Pellets

The biomass and pellet fuel industry has to address difficult questions when it comes to raw material transportation and finished pellet transportation. Even if the transportation costs of a pellet plant can be covered, is it correct to market a fuel such as wood pellets as a 'green fuel' when the raw material and pellets have covered hundred if not thousands of miles.

Part the problem is a blind faith in that bigger is better when it comes to wood pellet production. While larger scale pellet plants will always have a lower production cost per ton within the factory, when you look at the total cost per ton including delivery for large plants it often does not make sense if there is not a fairly significant local demand. Many research institutions agree that the future of the biomass and biofuel industries are on a local scale. Therefore small pellet plants are more suitable for many locations, and particularly to get the wood pellet industry growing. However, just because a pellet plant maybe small does not mean it has to be basic and require more manual labour. Here at PelHeat we offer high quality and highly automated small scale pellet plants that only require one operator. The whole process is controlled through one control panel. If at any time there is a issue with the process, the operator will be alerted and can easily see where the issue is. In the UK more pellet plants will be set up to meet the demand generated from the Renewable Heat Incentive that will pay renewable energy users for the pellets they need. Therefore the supply of wood pellets within the UK needs to be increased, and increased quickly. To learn more about pellets, please click the link below. You will also be able to see videos of our small scale wood press and small pellet plants making various pellets.
