Raw materials suitable for bamboo pellet machine

Bamboo pellet mill as an efficient biomass pellet mill can process all biomass raw materials. The raw materials applicable are also very wide, such as wood, straw, straw and so on.

• Wood: wood chips from wood mill and furniture factory waste, shavings, sawdust, trimmings, construction panel waste, garden trimmings, mountain logs, etc.
• Bamboo: waste from processing bamboo handicrafts, such as chopsticks and toothpick factories.
• Straw: Crop straw, such as corn stalks, wheat straw, soybean stalks, cotton stalks, rice straw, etc.
• Grass: alfalfa grass, hay, giant king grass and other kinds of grass can be processed with bamboo pellet machine
• Others: coconut shells, efb, rice husk, peanut shells, coconut shells, organic fertilizers, chicken manure, cow dung and so on.

Bamboo pellet mill can process a lot of raw materials, but the specific processing flow depends on the raw material. Take woody biomass raw materials as an example, if the raw material is dry wood chips, there is no need for drying and crushing process, after screening, it can be put into the pelletizer for pelletizing. However, logging yard trimmings and construction panel waste need crushing and drying before pelletizing. If the raw material is forest logs, it needs peeling and chipping before crushing.

The above is just a part of the raw materials that can be processed by the bamboo pellet machine, if you are not sure whether your raw materials can be processed by the machine, you can contact us at any time, we can do the raw material test for you and give you professional advice on the selection of the machine.

How to make bamboo pellets?

After learning so much about the benefits of bamboo pellets, I’m sure you’re more than eager to start making your own! How do you make bamboo pellets? Here is the answer!
The actual production process of bamboo pellets needs to be adjusted according to your raw materials and actual needs, which is why we are all about customized pellet production solutions for our customers. For example, one customer’s raw material is freshly collected bamboo with a high moisture content and a relatively large size. The customer is trying to build a complete bamboo pellet plant, we developed a complete bamboo pellet production line according to the customer’s needs, the production process includes bamboo slicing, bamboo crushing, bamboo drying, bamboo pelletizing, bamboo pellet cooling, bamboo pellet packing. However, some customers’ raw materials are already crushed bamboo crushed material and other crushed raw materials, but the moisture content is about 50%. Then it can directly enter the drying process!

The production process of bamboo pellets is generally: slicing – crushing – drying – pelletizing – cooling – packing. The following is a brief introduction to the various processes of bamboo pellets and the biomass pellet processing equipment that needs to be used.

01 Bamboo slicing: Bamboo slicing machine

Freshly collected bamboo is large in size and cannot be directly put into the crusher. At this time you will need to slice it first. Bamboo chipper is often used to reduce the size of bamboo pellets. Using bamboo chipper can shorten the bamboo size to 3-5cm thin slices.

02 Bamboo Crushing: Bamboo Crusher

After slicing, thin bamboo slices can be dropped into a bamboo crusher. After crushed by the crusher, the thin bamboo slices turn into 2-3mm bamboo chips, which is a suitable size for raw material for bamboo pellet mill processing.

03 Bamboo Drying: Bamboo Dryer

In order to ensure the quality of bamboo pellets, as well as the molding rate of the pelletizing machine, bamboo chips usually also need to be dried before entering the pelletizing machine. The most common machine for drying bamboo is bamboo dryer.
Here we need to remind you that not all raw materials need to be dried. Authoritative data show that bamboo moisture content of about 15% is most suitable for pelletizing. So you can measure the moisture content of your raw materials, and then decide whether you need to dry processing.

04 Bamboo Pelletizing: bamboo pellet machine

After drying the bamboo, the most expected pelletizing process comes next! Put the processed bamboo directly into the pellet making machine feeder, the uniform size, the inner solid bamboo pellets will come out from the discharge port!

05 Bamboo Pellet Cooling and Packing: bamboo pellet cooler & packing machine

The cooling of bamboo pellets is also a key step that should not be ignored. Because the temperature and humidity of the freshly made bamboo pellets are very high, they are easy to break and affect the quality of the pellets. So before packing and storing bamboo pellets, you need to cool them. The specific cooling method depends on your production and demand, if the production is small and the bamboo pellets are used for home use, you can use natural air-drying to cool down the bamboo pellets, but if your production is large, such as to build a bamboo pellet factory, then it is recommended that you use the bamboo pellet cooler, which has high cooling efficiency and uniform cooling. After cooling, you can pack the bamboo pellets according to your demand.

RICHI Machinery has been in the pellet making industry for 30 years and has successfully served thousands of customers from all over the world. Here are some cases of project on bamboo pellet making mill.
