New Perspective -“Lowest Cost” Energy From
Vast Biomass -7, Wood Pellet 2
• -->cont: •1FOREST RELATED:
1e Pellet:
• Some producers use Steam Explosion for cell weakening and densification
(also see p90 Torrefaction , p98,99 Hydrothermal carbonization). High
combustion lignin pellet(50-90% range lignin instead of 30% range in regular
wood) as Dilute Acid Hydrolysis alcohol production leftover(Бионет пеллет
лигнин, Lignineko+), sometimes from 30millon+ m3(Russia only, other CIS
excluded) accumulation of “hydrolytic lignin” landfill dump .
•
1f Biomass Briquettes: Usually non-industrial size production unless part
of large pulp/peat/lumber/composite wood operation(often in Russia+): by
shredding and compressing when stock is dry enough(moisture <16%), some
are stand alone with 20,000ton+/yr scale with other biomass(Biocoal co in,
KGN Biofuels +), Lignin based briquette(Бобруйский гидролизный завод,
Banisa Energy + ). System providers:(WEIMA Maschinenbau, Briquette-
Machine, C.F. Nielsen+), Generally speaking this sector's leader is India,
where product is called "biocoal" which is confusing with torrefied pellets.
