Bioburn®Pelletizer

Thebioburnenergysystem.Energyproductionfromunusedbiomass. BiomassThe Bioburn pelletizer can produce pellets fromalmostall typesofbiomass,providing for resourcerecovery from unused, no longerrecyclable or discarded local orregionalbiomass.FeedstockMost feedstock is mixedwith one or moreadditional biomasses toobtainanoptimalmixtureforproducinghighqualitypellets.

PelletizingThepelletizeristhecentrepieceof the system. The whole systemincludesamixer,ashredder,adryinghopperandanumber of storage silos. The entire system isdesigned to achieve energy-efficiency with lowenergyconsumption.

PelletsBioburn pellets are the only pellets on themarketformedwithahelicalextrusion,giving

them a unique stability. Bioburn pelletsare odourless and dust-free which

guarantees clean and efficienttransport, storage andcombustion.

EnergyBioburn pellets can produceheat or electricity withconventional combustiontechnologiesavailableonthemarket,includinggasification.

SoilconditionerBioburn pellets are valuable

resources of nutrients and organics.Following energy recovery, the remainingashes can be used in farming as a soilconditioner.

BioburnenergysystemThebioburnenergysystemprovidesanintegratedclosedloopbetweenenergyproductionandenergyconsumption. Thereby Bioburn acts as intermediary between our partners. Bioburn provides bothmachinery and knowhow to our pellet-producing partners, and markets the pellets to our energy-producing partners. To guaranty consistent pellet quality, Bioburn has developed a qualitymanagement system (QMS) which integrates initial biomass sourcing, pellet production, pelletcombustionandphosphorusrecoveryfromthecombustionash.

ModularSystemThe Bioburn pelletizer is part of a modularandexpandablesystem.Itconsistsofmultiplepelletizingunits,withaproductionrateof35kg per hour each. Therefore, the bioburnpelletizer can be customized to actualvolumesoffeedstock,fromaproductionrateof35kgperhourupto2000kgperhourpersystem.HighqualitypelletsThe Bioburn extruder technology offerspellets formed by twisting not layering. Thisresults in high quality pellets in terms ofstrengthandabrasion.Thispropertyincreasesthe pellet’s storage, transportation andcombustionquality.Analysesshowupto40%lower abrasion compared to layered pelletsproducedbycommonpelletizers.
