September 11th, 2008 by admin Leave a reply »

At PelHeat we mainly talk about biomass pellets as fuel pellets, as this is the designed purpose of our mobile pelletizer. The biomass pellet however is seen in many different markets not just as fuel pellets, below are a few examples.

Fuel Pellets
To provide heating for small properties and large industrial buildings, using pellet stoves and pellet boilers. Coal power stations also use pellets in co-combustion with coal, straw pellets are most common for this purpose. Power stations use pellets as it reduces transportation costs and is safer to transport than straw dust, as dust explosions can occur.

Animal Feed Pellets
The animal feed pellet industry is a very large producer of pellets, with added vitamins and nutrients to feed to horses for example.

Animal Bedding Pellets
Pellets made from straw for animal bedding as they absorb moisture and keep the animals living space clean and warm.

Gardening Pellets
Pellets made from chicken manure to use as a garden fertiliser.

Pond Pellets
Barley straw pellets are used to purify ponds from algae.

Fishing Pellets
Used as fishing bait, there are many different types.

BBQ Pellets
Special wood pellets are produced to use in Pellet BBQ’s. Pellet BBQ’s are becoming very popular as they give the food better flavours, below is a video from one of the major Pellet BBQ’s manufactures.

As you can see there are many different and diverse ways to use pellets and pellets can be made from a wide range of materials.
