Suitable Fuels
Pellet is a solid fuel which is obtained by compressing wood wastes at high pressure after drying,
grinding and making shavings and diameter of pellet 6-8 mm.
Wood pellet contains approximately 7-12% moisture. Its calorie higher than wood since its moisture
rate is low.
There are at least 3 steps while producing pellet. Firstly, wood wastes are made shavings by grinding,
after that they are dried with minimum moisture, later compressed, made cold and packaged. After
these process,, combustion and energy efficiency of trees increases 300% and so contribute
economy, environment and nature. It means that fuel amount decrease at rate 1/3, in addition lower
damage on forest and lower cost.
Advantages
It is a sustainable source. It contributes to economy and decreases imports of fossil fuel
It is acceptable for environment and health. After using ash is very low.
It is less dangerous than the other fossil fuels
It is used for producing electricity
It is under acceptable CO oscillation threshold values according to Kyoto Protokol
The cleanest of solid fuel is pellet
It is easily provided over the World
Transpotation of wood pellet is very easy
It is not necessary to cut trees for commercial pellet. Wood wastes are used and so it can be burned
easily. Also, it contributes to avoid forest fire since wastes are collected
It needs smaller area compared to wood
During using other solid fuels, creosote occurs on chimney and for pellet there is almost no creosote.
Thus it is not neccessary to connect to a chimney, smoke can be given outside directly from its
chimney output
