020304050607Did you know that Pellets emit 15 times less CO2 than diesel?
1L of diesel emits 3.04kg of CO2 while the equivalent in pellets (2kg) emits only 0.2kg of CO2.
Another interesting comparison is that Pellets develop 4.8kWh/kg and firewood about 4.2kWh/kg.
In other words, the calorific value of Pellets usually ranges between
90-95% while the average of dry firewood is 70-75%.
Discover the manufacturing process
of our chestnut pellets!VERTICAL INTEGRATION MODELWe promote the circular economy by taking another step in the wood cycle through the use of chestnut wood scraps, previously treated to low humidity in other production phases.In each production phase there must be control and aspiration so that dust does not accumulate, and guarantees good calorific value and ash!LET'S TRANSFORM THE CHESTNUT TREE INTO CHICKENSThrough the mill we transform it into fibers and sawdust. We further reduce the moisture levels by drying it. Through different filters the dust and leftovers are eliminated.
FIBERS (MICROSTAR) + SAWDUST
= THE PERFECT COMBINATIONFROM CHIPS TO SAWDUSTWe transform chestnut tree cuttings (dry, without bark and treated to low humidity) into chips. Through a sieve, the large pieces are discarded and crushed again.
It is stored, protecting it from humidity and rain.
Dry chips (8-10% humidity) and with a granulometry of G30THE GRANULATOR
FROM SAW TO PELLETSThrough the matrix and the high pressure and temperature, the pellet comes out at 100ºC. The second phase of dust suction and “fines” is carried out.
THE MAGIC MOMENT...IT IS STORED IN HOPPERS
IT IS COOLEDIt is stored in different hoppers for several hours, managing to cool the pellet to the necessary level. The third suction phase is carried out.QUALITY CONTROL
PERIODICALLYWe measure the presence of “fines”, durability, humidity, etc.
We also immerse the pellet in water and measure the decomposition and density.
WE MANAGE TO OBTAIN 5-7% MOISTURE IN THE PELLET
AND A HIGH HYGROSCOPIC LEVEL!BAGGING IS PROCEEDED
DIFFERENT FORMATSWe offer different formats, adapting to your needs. We distribute both wholesale and retail throughout Catalonia!Chestnut pellet01
