Predicted Market Condition of Wood Pellet in 2020

It is acknowledged that one source that is causing air pollution is burning fossil fuel. In order to protect environment on the earth where we live, as human beings, we should take some measures. One of the protection measures is that we can use more clean wood pellets as fuel instead of using fossil fuel. So, what is wood pellet? And where can we use it?

Wood pellet, which is also called biomass pellet, is mainly made from crushed poplar branches, white pine logs, camphor pine branches, as well as apple wood, oak and crop straws. It is a kind of high-density and high-calorific solid fuel. Most importantly, this is clean energy. Wood pellet can be used in many places. First of all, it can be used as fuel in some industries such as textile, printing and dyeing, paper-making, food, rubber, plastics, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Secondly, it can be used in hotels, schools, restaurants and service industries for heating up water. What’s more, you can also use wood pellets at home if you have fireplace indoors, or you can use wood pellet as fuel for cooking.   

The combustion efficiency of wood pellet is above 80%, which is quite high compared with other types of fuel. High combustion efficiency means there are just little sulfur dioxide, ammonia nitrogen compounds and dust generated during the burning time of wood pellets.

Using wood pellet as fuel began in 2005. After more than ten years’ development, nowadays, wood pellet fuel is very popular among its users. Currently, the market of wood pellet is expanding. Wood pellet fuel is widely used, and the raw materials for making wood pellets are reproducible. In addition, using wood pellet as fuel is in line with environmental requirements. Therefore, the market space of wood pellet is very large. It is believed that wood pellet fuel will definitely occupy a place in the energy market!
