Use Of Biomass Pellets For Power Generation: Perfect Guide (PDF)
Biomass pellets are biomass fuels derived from solid waste, agricultural residue, and forestry residue. Some of the commonly used raw materials in the production of biomass pellets include sawmill residue, tree barks, branches, leaves, rice husk, sugarcane bagasse, coconut shell, cotton stalk, etc. Biomass pellets are used as biofuels for commercial and residential heating, power generation, cooking, and other applications. Biomass pellets are clean burning and renewable sources of fuel, which generally emit less particulate emissions.
Biomass pellets have a high calorific value. The calorific value of carbonized wood pellets is in the range of 7000 to 8000Kcal/kg and is extensively used as fuel for industrial boilers. These biomass pellets can be directly burnt in the coal firing boilers without needing any refitting. Industries operating coal-fired boilers are increasingly using biomass pellets to power the boilers and reduce the expenditure on costlier fossil fuels. The rising adoption of biomass pellets across various industries is anticipated to create significant demand for biomass pellet manufacturers in the forecast period.
Biomass pellets are a renewable source of energy, and the surplus availability of biomass feedstocks in the form of forest waste and agricultural crop residue is anticipated to provide lucrative business opportunities for biomass pellet producers. Moreover, the growing uses of biomass pellets in domestic heating, heating stoves, fireplaces, and water heating is likely to create significant demand for biomass pellets in the forecast period.
