Download or read book Wood Pellet as a Renewable Source of Energy written by Mohammad Ali Abdoli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes the reader on a journey from the moment that raw wood material enters the factory to the final pellet consumption. It starts by reviewing biomass application and its role for the future development of renewable energies, discussing different biomass conversion methods as alternatives to direct utilization. The second chapter then comprehensively examines densification processes, with a focus on the pelleting process. Chapter three further elaborates on the pelleting process, including an overview of the pellet structure and properties, and the history of this process. The subsequent chapters provide a detailed account of the production process from raw material delivery to final distribution, addressing the chemical and physical quality, and presenting measurement methods and standards. In the final chapters, the authors describe in detail the pellet combustion process and emissions.

Download or read book Biomass Pelletization written by A. Garcia-Maraver and published by WIT Press. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental and energy dependency problems derived from high fossil fuels consumption have made necessary the development of new energy models to be renewable and sustainable, efficient, practical and economical, and cost effective, to meet the demand for a sustainable energy supply. Among renewable resources, biomass is destined to play an important role in these new energy models since agricultural and forestry residues are an energy resource which is produced in relatively large amounts throughout the world and regarded as a renewable and environmentally safe way of providing energy. Compiling information on the conversion of energy from biomass, the book focuses on the use of pellets as homogeneous solid biofuels. It describes all the changes that forestry and agricultural biomass undergo to be converted into thermal energy and analyses the inputs and outputs of the process. It has to be noted that the standards used as guidelines and references in all the chapters of the book are there in order to not to forget the thresholds and guidelines established and thus to ensure a proper use. This book guides the reader through the entire biomass-to-energy process, emphasising important aspects and how the quality of the biofuel can be identified. It acts as a starting point for professionals and researchers interested in working with biomass and a guide for those people interested in the implementation of the technologies described.

Download or read book Theory and Practice of Wood Pellet Production written by Zoltán Kocsis and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the agriculture, forestry, the primary and secondary wood working industry there are considerable resources of raw materials which can only be used in a rational manner for energetic purposes. Due to requirements from the users. one of the most retinal way of utilization is to make pellets with high density and specific energy content. Making pellets of 6-8 mm diameter, their utilization in furnaces allows an almost fully automated operation with high thermal efficiency. This book describes both the theoretical and practical aspects of pellet production including material requirements and preparation, pressing technologies, quality requirements, burning properties, investments and the overall economy of pellet production.

Download or read book North America s Wood Pellet Sector written by Henry Spelter and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American wood pellet sector is profiled in this paper. A small pellet industry has existed since the 1930s, but its main growth occurred in the wake of the energy crisis in the 1970s. Its current spurt is even greater, growing from 1.1 million metric tonnes in 2003 to 4.2 million 2008. It is set to reach 6.2 million in 2009. Most plants are small, relying on sawmill residues for fiber and thus are limited to 100,000 tonnes or less per year. A number of new mills have been built to process chipped roundwood and have capacities three to four times as large. Most pellets made in the United States are consumed domestically, but a growing offshore market is boosting exports. By contrast, most Canadian pellets are shipped overseas. The reliance on sawmill residues led to imbalances between supply and demand for fiber as the sawmilling sector retrenched in the 2008-2009 recession. This has led mills to turn to roundwood or other non-sawmill sources of fiber. The wood pellet industry and use of wood pellets as energy are in their relative infancy in North America and the recent growth of both has been fueled by increases in the cost of fossil energy. However, policies aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere could loom as bigger factors in the future.
