Briquetting and pelletizing are processes of energy densification of biomass. They are processes to transform waste into solid fuel. The principle of the briquetting process is the same as pelletizing, the plasticization of lignin.

The pellet size varies between 6 mm and 16 mm, while the briquette has a diameter starting from 50 mm. Pelletizing is a more demanding extrusion process than briquetting. The presses are more demanding and the process is more selective with waste.

Any plant-based waste can be compacted by briquetting or pelletizing, just meeting the granulometry, lignin, and moisture content requirements demanded by the process.

There are several technologies for compacting lignocellulosic waste:

Mechanical piston extruders or mechanical crank piston press (forms briquettes) Hydraulic piston extruders or hydraulic briquette press (forms briquettes) Screw extruders or screw briquette press (forms briquettes) Pelletizers (forms pellets) or pellets.

Automated and environmentally friendly heating with pellet burning

The new line of water heating boilers developed by Lippel uses biomass in pellet form as a fuel source in a burner specially developed for this dual fuel.

With the support of the state government - FAPESC, we have created solutions to diversify our energy chain without harming the environment, generating alternatives in water and heat heating with a demand between 50 and 500KW.

The boiler and burner are fully automated and designed to burn pellets efficiently and without producing harmful gases to nature.

As it is a dual fuel derived from waste from wood processing industries, pellets are considered to have no CO² emissions. The microprocessed system receives information from an oxygen Lambda sensor that controls gas levels, always adjusting combustion to the most ideal possible.

Water heating using biomass (pellets) as fuel offers considerable economic advantages in most cases for these types of consumers, being relatively simple to install and low maintenance.

Thus contributing to the use of renewable energies, diversifying our energy chain, and reducing the use of fossil fuels harmful to the environment.
