Pellet’s business

Even 20 years ago, there was not a separate industry as pellet’s. Then, in the EU and in North America companies only began to produce small quantities of wood pellets and mainly for domestic use. Now in the EU establishing of the industry sector ended.

In many countries pellet’s plants work successfully. People are accustomed to use extensively white wood pellets for heating houses and water heating. At large thermal power plants and heat stations burn low-quality gray pellets in large quantities. At many plants the waste is compressed and sparingly used for technological needs. It is clear, that the fight for the environment, reducing carbon dioxide emissions, fossil fuel prices lifting have yielded results. Pellet’s business successfully works or is in the formation process in many countries.

Distinctive features of the pellet’s industry:

The existing resource base using. It previously was simply waste, polluted the environment, require disposal and did not bring any profit;
New technologies for processing biopolymers with full biorefining (four redistributions) development;
New markets for finished goods development (from energy to domestic use);
New and unique eco-friendly construction materials creating, valuable organic chemicals production, and exclusion traditional fossil fuels from energy balance;
Industry sector high profitability, introducing the newly created technologies and a high level technological processes automation. The industry there is not old, poorly automated enterprises. Those companies that are using the wrong technologies that are not appropriate to the kind of the feedstock and its physicochemical properties, simply can not compete in this market, and will cease to exist.

The future will show our pellet’s business successfulness! We have no doubt his viability and success.

In the harvesting process and agricultural products processing we remain solid waste. In
recent years, the special energy crops cultivation is expand. This biomass creates a diverse
raw materials source not only for biofuel production, but also for the full biorefining —
high-tech production with high value-added cost based on deep mechanical and chemical
processing biological raw materials directly in the region of its growth.
Biorefining includes:

- deep chemical processing for a pulp and a variety of organic substances producing;
- agricultural sector waste energy recycling to finished biofuels;
- chemical processing for a pellets, torrefied fuel, ethanol, biological products producing;
- construction materials production, based on polymers;
- food grain, microcrystalline cellulose receiving;
- medicinal agents production.

Sharing automated control systems and second-generation biofuels (pellets) using in industrial and individual automation heating systems will allow not only go to the «green» housing construction, but also reduce the agricultural production and processing cost by cogeneration own «green» energy.

Seminar Pellet’s Production Foundations

Some companies began to create Ukrainian pellet’s production in the forestry and agricultural sector in the past 10 years. They mainly used obsolete equipment designed for the mixed fodder manufacturing. They does not take into account the fundamental
differences in technologies and, consequently, in the equipment design. Company «BM-Engineering» offers in essence new
approaches to pellet’s production creation. It is necessary to use for biomass processing such technologies, that take into account
physical and chemical properties, characteristics of raw materials and allow you to control the quality of products at all stages of
production.
Our correct approach to the of biomass lines processing creation is in:
. feedstock don’t need drying with high energy costs. It needs to be washed and heated and then milled through the use of
shear strain between the biopolymer layers and melting;
. grinding mode is completely determined by the physicochemical and rheological properties of raw materials in a particular
party. The technical regime characteristics must be chosen by trial operation with the technical process parameter changes
step by step in accordance to the procedures offered by our company;
. you must have fully automated processing lines;
. we propose special mechanism for raw material residues removal from the inner cavity in case of equipment power failure.
We offer pellet’s producing lines with different manufacturing capability. They cover an industry
equipment needs range, taking into account the volume of the raw material base and the types
of feedstock.

Certification and auditing of the pellet’s production

Certification and auditing of the pellet’s production in accordance with the European standards series EN 17461 provides that at all stages from the biological raw materials preparation and quality control to pellet’s manufacture, their packaging, labeling, storage, delivery and use, you must strictly comply with single standards, specifications and rules. In accordance with the ENplus system the certificate is necessary to obtain on a specific bio-fuel batch after appropriate tests in all parameters in a certified laboratory. Remember! Certified products worth several times more expensive!

A full range of engineering services performed by the company «BM-Engineering», include: a business plan with energy efficient, profitability and the cost of production calculation, design, construction, commissioning, commissioning and service. In addition, the company supplies equipment of its own production, fulfill the certification and automation of built plants.

Solid fuel boilers

The gas- producing КГГП-25 (50, 75) Series wood pellets class A1 are using as a solid fuel. They generate thermal energy for domestic use — heating and water heating. Pellet’s combustion allows to increase the duration of the burning in 4 times on a single load. Buying gas- producing boilers КГГП-25 (50, 75) Series producing «BM-Engineering» company you get a high-performance, economical, safe and reliable heating and hot water system for years to come.
Let in your home will always be warm and comfortable!
In the original boiler’s КГГП-25 (50, 75) design all the parts with high thermal load are made from refractory concrete!
This solution has allowed to raise the combustion temperature of the resulting synthesis gas process and has led to an increase in boiler efficiency due to more complete fuel combustion.
The boiler’s КГГП-25 (50, 75) design is implemented new technological solution obtaining of quality synthesis gas from the wood pellet, and burning it at an elevated temperature in a vortex burner considering the aerodynamic properties of the gas stream.
Thus wood pellets are burned completely with high heat output, as opposed to combustion in a fluidized bed schemes, which are implemented in boilers of other manufacturers.
The tube heat exchanger is built in the hopper of top-loading, which warms loading fuel.
This design allowed to reduce the boiler’s size in 2 times, increase volume of the fold hopper in 5 times, and reduce the fuel rate downloads in such times.
