🔎 What are the challenges of high-silica biomass in pellet production? Characteristics of High-Silica Biomass: ✔️ High Ash Content: Leads to slagging and fouling in combustion systems.✔️ Abrasive Nature: Causes excessive wear on pellet mill dies and rollers.✔️ Low Energy Density: Results in poor combustion efficiency.✔️ Hard to Pelletize: High friction makes densification difficult. ⚠️ […]
India’s biomass pellet production capacity, as of 2023, stands at approximately 7,000 tonnes per day, equating to an annual capacity of 2.5 million tonnes. This production primarily utilizes agricultural residues such as rice husks, wheat straw, and other crop residues, converting them into biomass pellets for renewable energy generation. Driven by government policies and increasing […]
