When producing you own pellets, corrosion is an issue that should be taken seriously. Different fuels produce different levels and different types of corrosion when burnt. Also different boilers and stoves have different abilities in withstanding corrosion.
It is not cost efficient to pelletize a fuel that will destroy your pellet burner in a few years, so these factors must be considered before choosing your raw material and your pellet burner.
Soon I will produce the following articles on corrosion:
1. What causes Corrosion?
2. Which Biomass causes Corrosion?
3. Corrosion Resistant Pellet Burners
To offset the corrosive qualities of a biomass raw material it can be mixed with another biomass, I will explain this in more detail in:
1. Mixed Biomass Pellets
