Making Pellets Is About Quality, Productivity and Energy Used

Putting material into a pellet mill to make a 'pellet' is not difficult at all. For a fuel pellet to be fit for purpose it needs to have a good density and low moisture content, and you cannot tell the difference just by looking at them. The only way to produce a quality pellet is to know what you are doing.

As well as the quality of the pellet, to make pellet production a worth-while venture you need to achieve maximum productivity and keep pellet mill energy consumption to a minimum. For instance, just a 2% change in raw material moisture content has shown to reduce pellet mill productivity by 70% and pellet mill energy consumption to increase by a massive 39%!
