WOOD PELLETS
Wood pellets are a type of compressed biofuel produced from the excess of natural materials such as sawdust, wood chips, rice husks, corn stalks, etc. These materials are collected during the process of material production and agricultural surplus, put into a modern production line, with a high-speed pressing process and the impact of temperature and pressure, compressed and naturally bonded into finished wood pellets.
With a compact size and high efficiency, especially completely natural origin, wood pellets are increasingly popular and prove their position in the market of other clean fuel sources.
Depending on the type of raw material, wood pellets are divided into different types. Some popular and widely used wood pellet products today are:
-
Wood pellets from plantation wood waste
Wood pellets from agricultural waste
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF WOOD PELLETS
Diameter: 6-8 mm
Length: 10-40 mm
Moisture: max 10%
Ash: max 5%
Calorie: 4,500 – 4,800 Kcal/kg.
ADVANTAGES OF WOOD PELLETSProduced from natural materials on modern production lines, wood pellets have many outstanding advantages compared to other fossil fuels:
Much cheaper than popular fuel sources: According to many studies, using wood pellets in the long term will help users save a lot of costs, specifically as follows:
One ton of wood pellets produces energy equivalent to 120 gallons of oil but the cost is 42% cheaper than oil.One ton of wood pellets produces energy equivalent to 170 gallons of Proban but the cost is only 67%.
One ton of wood pellets produces BTU energy equivalent to 4,755 kWh of electricity but the cost is only 38%.
Environmentally friendly: Unlike many other fuel sources that produce a lot of toxic smoke and dust when used, wood pellets not only utilize agricultural and industrial waste but also have a low ash content of only 1.17% – 4%.
-
High heat: Wood pellets emit quite a lot of heat when burned, on average, 1 kg of wood pellets when burned can generate 4260 – 4600 kcal and can be higher or lower depending on the type of raw material used for production.
Little smoke: Produced by modern production lines, wood pellets have a fairly low humidity <12% so when burned, little smoke is produced, good for the health of users.
APPLICATIONS OF WOOD PELLETSWith many outstanding advantages, Wood pellets are applied in many fields from industry to residential life, some outstanding applications of wood pellets are as follows:
Used in combustion systems in industrial and civil sectors
Used in heating equipment systems such as fireplaces, replacing heating with electricity, coal
Used in steaming, drying, pasteurization, and sterilization systems in food and beverage factories.
Used to generate heat in thermal power plants
Lying barns, farms for raising chickens, horses, cows, goats, etc.
Used in heat supply systems for four-season hot water swimming pools, hot water networks for playgrounds, restaurants, hotels, schools, rehabilitation areas
Used for alcohol cooking systems, industrial kitchens in large restaurants, hotels, etc.
And many other applications that require high temperatures.
Benefits of using wood pelletsWith many outstanding advantages in quality and efficiency, wood pellets bring users significant benefits such as:
Stable source of raw materials: Unlike fossil fuels such as coal, oil, etc., which will gradually wear out over time, causing prices to increase. Wood pellets utilize renewable materials such as wood dust, pulp, sawdust, rice husks, etc. for production, ensuring stable reserves and the least fluctuation in prices.
Increase the life of boilers and combustion equipment: Wood pellets are produced through a modern production line, ensuring that the average heat output/kg is always stable, without causing too much difference in heat, contributing to increasing the life of boilers and combustion equipment. In particular, during use, wood pellets when burned also produce less smoke, helping to increase the life of stoves and boilers, and significantly increasing consumer benefits.

In addition, the amount of ash produced from Wood Pellets is also very small, not causing too much impact on the boiler and the accompanying combustion equipment.
Save costs and transportation time: Wood Pellets are produced according to a modern production line, compressed into long pellets and packed into small bags in many different weights, very convenient for use and transportation.
Does not pollute the environment and affect the health of users: Made from purely natural materials, when burned, Wood Pellets will not produce toxic gases that affect the quality of the living environment. Using wood pellets is contributing to creating a cleaner and more natural living environment.
Simple to use, clean, convenient: Compressed into convenient long pellets, you will not need to spend a lot of effort and time to process before burning like coal or oil
In particular, wood pellets produce very little ash, so you can quickly clean the furnace after use.
Can utilize the remaining ash to make clean fertilizer: A feature that many people like about wood pellets is that the ash residue after burning can be utilized as clean fertilizer for agricultural production, which is extremely economical and convenient. This is also one of the highly effective biological fertilizers.VINAGREENS – in addition to providing Biomass fuels from wood, is also one of the enterprises with a large biomass fuel production output with a capacity of more than 100 thousand tons/year. As a commitment to the environment, we always prioritize the development of clean energy through the use of wood fuels and agricultural and forestry waste, contributing to sustainable development.
