Chapter 2
WHAT ARE PELLETS?
Pellets are made by applying very high pressure to sawdust; i.e. the residue of raw timber (without paint)
produced by sawmills, carpentry works and other activities involved in processing wood.
This type of fuel is completely environmentally friendly, as no binders of any kind are used to keep it
compact. In fact, the compactness of the pellets over time is guaranteed by lignin, a natural substance
found in the wood itself.
As well as being an environmentally friendly fuel, since wood residues are exploited to the maximum,
pellets also have technical advantages.
The density of the pellet is 650kg/m3 and the water content is 8% of its weight. For this reason, pellets do
not need to be seasoned to obtain a suffi
cient heating yield.
Pellets used must be compliant with norms:
Ö-Norm M 7135
DIN plus 51731
UNI CEN/TS 14961
Extrafl ame recommends using 6 mm pellets.
