EFB Pellet Mill

How EFB Materials Are Made into Pellets?

Drying: Dry the palm fiber to certain moisture content which is suitable for pelletizing.Crushing: Crush the fibrous EFB materials into small pieces. Material Sizing is very necessary before the material enter pellet mill, otherwise if the strand is too long it will choke and jammed the machine. This is where the skill and experience comes into play.Pelletizing: For EFB pelletizing production, a ring die type large pellet mill is needed. Flat die pellet mill is not capable of processing palm fiber materials.Cooling,Packing.

About EFB / Palm Fiber Pelletizing

Palm fiber or palm silk is a kind of biomass materials is by-product of palm after oil extraction. It is also called EFB for short. It is featured of high content of oil and water, high hardness and strong tenacity. These features make palm EFB a great material for pelletizing, but also make it more difficult to pelletize. Specialized EFB Pellet Mill is needed to produce pellets from palm fiber or palm silk.

The Tricks of making high quality EFB pellets is at the material preparation side. Appropriate material preparation with suitable pellet making machine, there will be no problem in pelleting EFB.

Why Choose Palm Fiber for Making Fuel Pellets?

Need No Additives While Pelleting: Oil palm fiber is extracted from empty fruit bunches. It contains about 13-25% of lignin and 43-65% of cellulose. And the content of lignin is a key component for making pellets without adding additives.Low Moisture: The moisture content of EFB pellets is around 8-12% while the moisture of shredded EFB fiber is generally around 60%. It means that you can save your costs on transportation.High Heating Energy and Thoroughly Combustion: EFB pellets have a high calorific value of 4300-4800kWhr/ton, which equals to sub-bituminous coal and high density wood pellets. Palm fiber is proved to be very effective when burning. EFB pellets can be burned thoroughly and there is only 5% of substance left over as ash content.Generate Little smoke During Combustion: EFB pellets generate little smoke while burning which means very minimum particulate being discharge to the air.Abundant Material Resources: It is very popular and common in Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia. You can easily get sufficient materials from palm oil plants with very low price.Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in knowing more about EFB Pellet Mills and Palm Fiber Pellet Making Process.
