Two ways to detect the product quality of biomass pellet machine

Biomass pellet machine can be used to process agriculture and forestry wastes such as sawdust, straw, rice husk and bark into pellet fuel of high density through pretreatment and process. The pellet produced by biomass pellet machine is a kind of high efficient, clean and renewable energy that can be used to replace kerosene, which can not only save energy and reduce emissions, but have great economic benefits and social benefits.

Qualified pellet produced by biomass pellet machine refers to the pellet with moisture content of less than 10%, and from the angle of mechanics, the density of pellet is high, thus it is quite firm. Then, how to detect whether the finished product of pellet mill is qualified or not? Although it can be seen that in some cases, people are not clear about the fundamental principle. Here are two ways to detect the quality of pellet that users can have a try.
 
The first test method is that put the pellet produced by biomass pellet machine in a glass of water. If the pellet sinks, it proves that its density is high enough and the forming pressure is sufficient. If the pellet floats on the surface of the water, it proves that its density is low and the quality is poor. From the mechanical point of view, the durability of pellet is very poor that it is easy to be crushed or turn into fine powder.
 
The second test method is that take a container that can hold at least 1 litre of water and weight it. Fill the container with pellets, then weight it again and minus the net weight of the container. Divide the weight that filled with pellets by the weight that filled with water. The calculation result of qualified pellet should be between 0.6 and 0.7 kg/l, this value could also be seen as the specific proportion of pellet. It is an important parameter, which indicates whether the pressure is correct or not in the manufacturing of pellet. The value of unqualified pellet would be lower than 0.6, they are very easy to be broken and shattered that would produce a lot of fine powders.
 
Above are the methods to test whether the pellet produced by pellet machine is qualified or not. If you are not sure whether the pellet produced by your biomass pellet machine is unqualified or not, you can test with the methods above. If you have any question in the test, do not hesitate to contact us.
