Fuel pellets from sunflower husks are a highly efficient and environmentally friendly biofuel type manufactured from oil production waste (meal). This type of pellet is characterized by many advantages of use, making it widespread for heating and energy production.
The main advantage of straw pellets have a low moisture content (W), which is only 8–10%, compared to a more classic type of fuel, such as firewood, which has a moisture content of 30%. Due to this, less heat is spent on evaporating moisture during combustion, which, in turn, affects the calorific value: for straw pellets, it averages 17 MJ/kg, and for firewood (W 30%) – 12 MJ/kg (the more indicator, the more heat we get from fuel combustion). For example, 1 ton of fuel pellets is enough to produce 4000 kW/h of thermal energy, and the combustion of 1 ton of
wood (W 30%) will deliver approximately 3,400 kW/h. Sunflower husk pellets are excellent for heating private homes, commercial premises, and industrial facilities. They have high energy value and provide stable and efficient heating.
The production of pellets from selected sunflower meal is based on secondary resources, which makes this type of biofuel environmentally friendly and responsible for the use of production waste.
The following conditions must be provided at the place of their storage to keep pellets in good condition:
• Dryness and sufficient ventilation of the room;
• High level of fire safety;
• Protection from direct sunlight;
• Stand (it is better to use pallets or wooden boards).
