Here is a video of one of our pellet plants making grass pellets made from Reed. The Reed grass is harvested several times a year and has no local value, therefore the grass is been made into fuel pellets. These grass pellets can be burnt in suitable biomass pellet stoves and boilers. The reed grass when harvested has a moisture content below 15% which makes it suitable for making pellets in the pellet mill without the need for drying. In the pellet plant process first the grass is sent through a shredder to reduce the grass to particles roughly an inch long. The grass is then collected from the shredder via a fan and placed into a silo via a cyclone seperator. The silo is fitted with several proximity sensors that alert the operator if the pellet plant is low on material. The grass is then metered into a hammer mill which is fitted with a 5mm screen. The grass is then sent via an auger to the hopper on the ring die pellet mill. There the grass is mixed to provide consistency, and additional water or vegetable oil maybe added to adjust the compression within the pellet mill die. The grass is then processed through the ring die pellet mill into 8mm fuel pellets suitable for some biomass pellet stoves and most biomass boilers. The grass pellets are then seived to reduce fines and travel up a variable speed conveyor to be cooled. The grass pellets can then be sent to a silo or packaged into large dumpy bags or small plastic bags for domestic pellet fuel customers. This setup is similar to how we would setup a pellet plant to process Switchgrass, Miscanthus or Hemp.
