Description

We are a certified manufacturer of wood pellets and agro pellets. Our wood pellets are manufactured from selected pine sawdust without any additives. We want to combine the interests of environmentally conscious energy users with those of modern organic matter manufacturers, at the same time enhancing the quality and price efficiency of pellets. The project implementation will allow us to introduce an innovative process of drying biomass in our plant. It combines the production of heat carried by 90°C water heated in a fresh (wet) biomass boiler with the process of drying high-quality biomass in a biomass belt dryer. The introduction of the biomass drying process will contribute to lower pellet production costs, and thus it will lower the final product price. In addition, clean warm technological air will make it possible to obtain very clean dried raw material free of discolouration and smell of fumes, which will increase the pellets quality and directly affect the competitiveness of our company.

The project costs include the purchase of machinery and equipment - a dryer (drying facility) and an energy unit for converting the biomass chemical energy as fuel with high moisture content (up to 55%) into heat.

As a result of the project CO2 emissions will be reduced by 5.952 tons per year and electricity consumption will be reduced by 0.11 GWh.
