Pellets Machine Line Wood Pellet Production
Wood pellets are small cylinders made from sawdust within the wood pellet production line, which is a process carried out mechanically to introduce the raw material such as forest and agricultural waste to transform it into wood pellets. In a simplified way, it is an ecological fuel with a neutral CO2 balance that helps to protect the environment from the harmful gases produced in common energy and heating processes. Wood pellets are the ecological element that should replace any fossil fuel source that emits greenhouse gases to protect the atmosphere. It is necessary to use alternative energy sources to protect and care for the environment.
Biomass Wood Pellets
Globally, more and more people turn their investment eyes on starting a wood pellet business. But, how the wood pellets are manufactured? What equipment are involved in the wood pellet production process?
Wood Pellet Production Machines & Process
There are 6 processes that are carried out to treat and produce the biomass pellets in biomass pellet mill:
Wood Pellet Production Process
- Receive and Prepare Raw Material: To prepare the pellets it is necessary to convert the material into sawdust, for this straw, wood chips, wood logs, forest waste and agricultural waste are used.
- Dry Sawdust: Sawdust can store moisture and it is necessary to dry the sawdust to continue with the subsequent processes. For this, the established humidity level is 11% -17%, so it undergoes different drying processes according to the capacity of each machinery. In case the pellet line is less than a thousand kilograms per hour, it is subjected to flow drying. This process can remove 20% of the moisture from the sawdust. However, if it exceeds the capacity of a thousand kilograms per hour, it is subjected to a 3-layer rotary dryer, being a long process, but with great results since it eliminates humidity by 40%.
- Wood Pelletizing: The pelletizing process will depend on the capacity, for this, if the capacity is less than 1 ton per hour, the die of the pellet machine must be flat. In case the line is of greater capacity, a ring die machine is needed, which supports a capacity between 1 and 20 tons per hour.
- Cool Pellets: After granulating the wood, the granules containing 15% humidity and a temperature between 60-80 degrees are cooled. The short-current cooler lowers the temperature and the humidity of the wood granules to be stored.
- Packing: In this phase, the pellets are weighed and packed to hold them against humidity.
- Storage: After being packed, the wood pellets can be stored for a long time.
Machinery in Wood Pellet Mill
The complete wood pellet mill plant and wood pellet production process requires different wood pellet machines, including Mixed Chipper, Hammer Crusher, Mechanical Fan, Cyclone Separator, Conveyor, Ring Die Pellet Machine, Dryers, Steam Steam Conditioner, Short Current Cooler, PLC control system, etc..
In additon to large biomass pellet production plant designed with ring die pellet machine, we also provide small pellet plant that is equipped with flat die pellet mill, and mobile wood pelletting plant. If you are interested in building wood pellet production plant project, please contact us to get customized plan!

The whole biomass wood pellet production line has low power consumption, clean environmental protection, low energy consumption and high production efficiency, high pelletizing rate and high quality pellets. For the drying process in wood pellet production line, it is more easy to pollute, we use clean energy as a heating fuel by forming biomass burning or directly use the low carbon sulfur pollution energy such as gas, coal gas, also can use steam drying, heating equipment mainly includes biomass combustion machine, coal stove, biomass gasifier, etc., this not only make full use of client resources, but also can ensure the wood pellet production line can meet the environmental standards. If you have any questions about biomass pellet machine or wood pellet production line, please contact us for more details, like equipment parameters, project cost, facotry layout, and more.
