How to make wood pellets? Process flow of wood pellet manufacturing plant
RICHI wood pellet manufacturing plants usually include these processes: Material Preparation Section – Drying Section – Grinding Section – Pelleting Section – Cooling Section – Bagging & Storage Section
Most pellets are produced in large-scale wood pellet plants. If you’re considering making your own pellets, this guide will teach you how to make wood pellets and better teach you how to choose wood pellet making equipment.
The following is an example of log wood pellets. The steps for using log wood pellets from various trees such as pine, fir, beech, oak, and eucalyptus are as follows:
Peeling Section
The equipment used to peel the logs is the RICHI tooth roller peeling machine. Peeling can increase the combustion calorific value of the finished pellets, reduce the ash residue after combustion, and reduce emissions.
Slicing Section
After the trunk of the log is peeled, it is cut into small wood chips by a slicer. The size of the wood chips is 20-30mm and the thickness is about 5-10mm, and then enters the subsequent processing section.
Crushing
The wood chips cut into blocks are fed into the crusher and finely powdered into 3-4mm wood chips. This section works without dust emission. After the materials are crushed, they are pneumatically transported and discharged by the negative pressure suction of the fan.
Drying
Before making wood pelletss, the raw materials must be dry. Depending on the raw materials used, the moisture content should be between 13% and 15%. In order for the granulation process to work properly, the raw materials should have the right amount of moisture. Drying the raw materials to the right moisture content is critical to making high-quality pellets.
Granulation
Finally, the granulation process is carried out, and the diameter of the processed finished granules is 6-10mm. RICHI’s MZLH series wood pellet making machine can process various biomass wood pellets.
Cooling and packaging
After granulation and cooling, it is packed and packaged. The temperature of the pellets after cooling is generally not higher than room temperature 5℃, and the moisture content of the wood pellets after cooling is less than 10%, which is convenient for storage. RICHI can adjust packaging equipment according to customers’ requirements for finished product packaging. It can also be stored in bulk or in steel warehouses.
The pre-treatment process for each raw material is different. If you have any questions, please contact us at any time. We will customize the wood pellet manufacturing plant according to your raw materials and provide comprehensive technical support for your wood pellet production line construction!
