Pelheat Mobile Pelletizer
Make fuel pellets from a variety of biomass materials for heating
biomass | shoppingPellets are made by compressing
biomass - for example wood and waste wood products, straw, and grasses. The pellets created burn cleanly and efficiently and a small volume of burning pellets can produce a large amount of heat as they are a dense store of
energy.
Biomass is a
carbon neutral fuel since the carbon released when it is burnt is offset 100% by the carbon absorbed when the raw materials were growing.
PelHeat Mobile Pelletizer
While pellets can be purchased from a range of retail outlets, there are many people (particularly those working in forestry and agriculture) who have the necessary biomass raw materials in abundance, and would like to make use of them rather than wasting them. A
Pelletizer is a machine into which you put raw
biomass such as waste wood chippings, and out of which comes
pellet boiler ready pellets.
Pictured above is a
mobile pelletizer manufactured in the UK by
PelHeat. This single-axle trailer mounted unit can be driven dicrectly to the location of the raw biomass to make pellets. It consists of a hammer mill, cyclone separator, hopper, pellet mill, Perkins diesel engine (made in Stafford, UK), and a control panel thereby making it a complete*
mobile solution.

Note that if waste wood is to be turned into pellets it must first be chipped, and any biomass with a moisture content in excess of 15% must first be dried.
As the
PelHeat Mobile Pelletizer can be moved from location to location (easily towed behind a typical car), it is perfect for a shared group purchase - greatly reducing the cost for each member while still meeting the needs of the whole group. This pelletizer makes
local energy production and consumption a practical option, and can help reduce
energy costs, and
wastage.
