New Perspective-“ Lowest Cost” Energy From Vast Biomass-7, Wood Pellet 2
•-- > cont: •: 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.
• 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.
