overview
Biomass energy is the use of biomass to produce energy. At present, biomass used as energy mainly refers to crop straw, forestry and wood processing waste, which replaces non-renewable energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas. Biomass energy is an important renewable energy source. Increasing the development and utilization of biomass energy is of great significance to improving energy utilization, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and protecting the ecological environment.
After the completion of this turnkey biomass pellet line in Netherlands project, 20,000 tons of biomass pellet fuel will be produced annually. The project has 330 production days throughout the year, 8 hours of work per day, and 2,640 hours of work throughout the year. The total labor quota of the whole plant is 12 people, including 10 workers and 2 managers.

Main raw and auxiliary materials and their physical and chemical properties
The main raw and auxiliary materials and energy consumption of this turnkey biomass pellet line in Netherlands project are shown in the table below.
Name of raw and auxiliary materials | Usage | Maximum storage | Remarks |
Agricultural and forestry waste and waste wood | 20,140 t/a | 0.2 | Purchased from outside |
Lubricating oil | 0.05t/a | 0.01 | Purchased |
Water | 4.7.5m3/a | / | Municipal water supply and rainwater collected in the project area |
Electricity | 1.1 million kw·h | / | Supplied by the local power grid |
Physical and chemical properties of some raw and auxiliary materials:
Engine oil: It can lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal and prevent leakage, prevent rust and corrosion, and reduce shock and buffer. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. Base oil is the main component of lubricating oil and determines the basic properties of lubricating oil. Additives can make up for and improve the deficiencies in the performance of base oil and give it some new properties. They are an important part of lubricating oil.

Process design of the Dutch biomass pellet project
The production process adopted by this turnkey biomass pellet line in Netherlands project is as follows:
(1) Loading:
Transport agricultural and forestry waste and waste wood to the coarse crusher through a screw feeder;
(2) Coarse crushing:
Crush the raw materials according to the feed particle size requirements of the fine crusher (coarse crushing) to make them into small fragments;
(3) Fine crushing:
Crush the coarse crushed materials according to the feed particle size requirements of the pelletizer to form semi-finished products.
(4) Granulation:
Transport the semi-finished products (finely crushed materials) to the semi-finished product stacking area, and then transport them to the pelletizer through a conveyor belt. The materials in the pelletizer are subjected to the action of centrifugal force, so that the materials continuously move in a circular motion and adhere to the inner wall surface of the die, forming a uniform annular material layer.
The attached materials are continuously rotated and squeezed by the pressure, so that they are forced into the ring die hole to form, and continuously extruded outward. The equipment’s own cutter cuts them into the required length, and finally the dial gradually pushes these particles out of the discharge port.
(5) Packaging and warehousing:
The biomass pellet fuel produced by the pellet mill is quality inspected and qualified products are packaged. The bagged products are transported to the warehouse for storage by a loader.
