With the rising cost of fossil fuels and the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions, industries across the world are turning to biomass pellet heating systems as an eco-friendly, economical, and sustainable alternative. These systems utilize compressed biomass pellets, made from agricultural waste, sawdust, and wood chips, to generate consistent and clean thermal energy.
A biomass pellet heating system is an advanced combustion setup designed to burn biomass pellets efficiently. It typically consists of a pellet burner, a boiler or furnace, a fuel hopper, and automation controls for efficient fuel feeding and temperature management.
Biomass pellet burners can be integrated with existing boilers or heat exchangers to provide central heating, hot water, or process heat in:
Biomass pellets are made from renewable sources such as wood waste, rice husk, sugarcane bagasse, cotton stalks, and agro residues.
Biomass fuel is cheaper than fossil fuels like LPG, diesel, and furnace oil. It offers excellent return on investment (ROI) within 12–24 months.
With low sulfur and negligible ash content, pellet combustion is cleaner, meeting strict pollution norms.
Modern pellet burners and boilers are equipped with PLC and HMI controls, allowing for automated fuel feeding, temperature control, and ignition.
Under India’s National Bio Energy Mission and MNRE schemes, biomass-based heating systems are eligible for capital subsidies, tax benefits, and carbon credits.
| Component | Description |
| Pellet Burner | High-efficiency combustion unit with auto ignition and modulation. |
| Pellet Storage Hopper | Stores biomass fuel and feeds burner through screw conveyor. |
| Control Panel | PLC + HMI for auto operation, temperature monitoring, and alarms. |
| Boiler / Furnace | Converts heat into hot air, water, or steam depending on application. |
| Chimney with Smoke Collector | Manages emissions and maintains draft. |
| Fuel Feeding System | Screw or chain-based conveyor for smooth fuel delivery. |
| Pellet Type | Calorific Value (GCV) | Source |
