As heating oil and natural gas prices soar, people seek alternative fuel sources for heating. The cheapest is biomass material, in this case wood pellets. Pellets are readily available, low-priced, safe, easy-to-use and environmentally friendly. They can be made from switch grass, grain, corn cobs and stalks, paper, sawdust, leaves and other waste material containing cellulose. If you can reduce the size of your biomass to granular form, you can make pellets. It’s not difficult to make wood or biomass pellets, but you need to invest in equipment and time.


Considering the prospects for biomass fuel industry, many customers plan to invest in wood pellet plant. However, they don't really know about the pellet processing industry. In the purchase of wood pellet machine production line, they do not know their actual needs and easy to make the wrong choice.

We know that a set of wood pellet complete plant combines crushing, drying, pelletizing, cooling, screening, packaging and the computer control automation production line. The price varies according to the output, generally a ton of complete wood pellet machine production line prices in 600 thousand or so. Taking one ton of production as the standard may help us judge the price of the machine. We should purchase according to own actual situation. We suggest customers make field trips of manufacturers as much as possible and do not sign the contract in a hurry. You can get the quotation of each manufacturer, then you can decide which product is suitable for you according to the quality and price of each pellet machine as well as your own situation. Meanwhile, the following questions should be considered before building the pellet plant:
