Wood Pellet Plants For Fuel Pellets

Wood pellet machines are most commonly used to produce wood pellet fuel. Wood pellet fuel over recent years has grown rapidly in popularity due to high oil prices and concerns over climate change. Once the wood has been processed through the wood pellet machine, a high quality, high density, high heat value fuel is created. One of the many advantages to wood pellet stoves and boilers, is that they can feed fuel at a controlled regulated rate into the burn chamber to obtain the desired heat value. Wood pellet fuel also burns far more efficiently than traditional wood logs. This means a higher heat value can be achieved with less fuel, less maintenance is required and much less smoke is produced improving air quality. In fact once a pellet fire is up to temperature, no visible smoke or particulates are seen coming from the flue.

Are There Small Wood Pellet Machines?

We offer a range of wood pellet machines, the smallest unit is the Mini Pellet Mill. This is available as a single of three phase press. We provide different dies for different materials, and we can provide both high and low compression wood dies. Wood pellets produced with the Mini Pellet Mill have been sent for testing and comply with all required standards. Unlike most small pellet machines the unit is highly automated and does not require constant hand feeding. As long as the feed bin is kept full the variable speed auger will feed the conditioner which in tern drops the material into the centre of the die. Replicating professional equipment.

Help With Quality Wood Pellet Equipment

Using a wood pellet machine to produce quality wood pellets is a technically demanding process. The operator must have an in-depth knowledge of how the process operates, and the possible complications and issues that could arise. As more individuals and organisations are looking into wood pellet machines, at PelHeat we have developed a guide on the process, to provide a background knowledge before purchasing any equipment. We also offer a mini pellet machine which you can use to test your new skill on a range of raw materials before investing in a pellet plant.

The Wood Pellet Prices You Can Expect

Obviously when working out whether its a good idea to start a pellet business you look at what price you will get for the product you produce. In terms of wood pellets it depends on the quality of the pellets, and also current market supply. For example in 2007 there was a shortage of wood pellets due to a lack of sawdust. This made the price of pellets double.
