Andritz Sprout Bio Fuel Pelleting
Process system solutions & machinery

   
 

Bio-Fuel Pellets are considered an excellent source of renewable energy, extensively used as an environmental friendly substitute to fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum products.

Why pellet?
Pelleting is used to increase the specific density of the product, for example the density of sawdust can be increased from 9 Lb/ft3 to 40Lb/ft3 by pelleting.

Advantages of this include:
• Improved handling.
• Reduced transport costs.
• Allows for stable storing.

The industry is growing rapidly in North America and Europe. End users include residential market, commercial power generation facilities and export users. Main driving force includes:
• Increasing prices of fossil fuels
• Fossil fuel shortages
• Local and national government tax systems
• Disposal problems

Andritz Sprout offers:
