Not all pellet stoves and boilers can burn such a extensive choice of biomass fuel pellets. The design of the pellet boiler at PelHeat gives it the ability to be flexible enough to use high ash content and clinker fuels, and also resist the corrosion that a number of biomass fuels can create. Pellet fuel can be constructed from various unlike biomass resources, and each substance has different combustion distinctiveness. For example wood pellets and particularly premium pellets produce very little ash. However other pellet fuel such as straw or grass pellets produce more issues. These issues can be a higher ash content, possible clinker and slag formation, and high temperature corrosion risks.

The exemption to the rule is hemp pellets. Hemp can be used to create textiles such as clothes and rope, it can also be used to manufacture plastics, paper and building materials as well as being a food creation. The remainder which cannot be processed is ideal for fuel pellet construction, as the pellets are low ash. A wood pellet press is used to form the wood into pellets. Inside the wood pellet press there is a roller and die set-up. Through a mixture of heat and force, the wood is melted and reformed into a pellet shape. When the wood pellets leave the press they are extremely hot and soft, once the pellets have chilled they are hard, and have a exterior shine. A wood pellet press is also know by a wood pellet mill or a wood pellet machine, they all explain the same piece of apparatus, however there are different designs available, namely flat die pellet mill and ring design. At the moment more and more people are moving from oil and gas heating systems on to wood pellet
systems.

However many people are still unaware of the benefits of wood pellets, and the reasons to buy wood pellets. Wood pellets are a form of alternative energy, as they are produced from wood residues. Therefore the wood assets can be re-grown and replaced, to meet future demand. Fossil fuels such as oil and gas on the other hand are forms of none renewable energy, as they take thousands and millions of years to develop. Our rate of consumption of fossil fuels, and global population increase will deplete gas and oil reserves within the next generation. Buying wood pellets helps to save reserves of oil and gas, and is a sustainable form of energy. Fossil fuels such as oil and gas are partly responsible for climate change and global warming. Fossil fuels such as oil and gas place additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which reflects the suns power and increases global temperatures. Wood pellets on the other hand are part of the present carbon cycle, and do not put any added carbon into the atmosphere. They are therefore regarded as a carbon neutral form of fuel. Therefore an additional reason to buy wood pellets is to play a hands-on role in tackling climate change. The cost of wood pellets is competitive or cheaper to the price of oil and chiefly gas. It must also be remembered the price of oil and gas will only raise in the long term due to increased demand due to population increase, and reduced resources. Also due to their result on climate change, higher taxes will soon be placed on oil and gas.
