Introduction

Biomass is one of the most attractive resources for generating sustainable energy. This renewable resource, when harnessed correctly, is capable of generating large amounts energy which makes it a secure market to invest in.

Grain Tech LTD is specialised in and fully dedicated to supplying biomass energy equipment and facilities for pelleting various renewable loose biomass materials that include: crop waste, straw, sawdust, wood chips, bark, wood shavings, along with other industrial and household wastes. These biomass materials can be used for household and industrial applications instead of fossil fuels, which have significant advantages over fossil fuels due to its increased bulk density and energy efficiency, lower transport costs, reduced storage volumes, safer handling, and due to its significantly reduced environmental impact in comparison to fossil fuels.

Grain Tech's experience and engineering capability provides advanced equipment, technological solutions, and turnkey installations for the Biomass sector that will not only be technologically advanced but will also be future proof. Our advanced equipment and technology enhances agricultural production while also benefiting the environment.

Application fields

 

Biomass energy solutions application includes: crop residues, wood and its processing residues, manure, municipal solid waste processing.

 
Wood and wood processing residues
Forest growth and forestry biomass energy production processes, including firewood in the forest tending and thinning operations in the fragmented wood, branches and sawdust and other residues; timber harvesting and processing of branches, sawdust, wood chips and skins, etc. ; forestry waste byproducts, such as the fruit shells and cores.

Crop and crop processing residues
Agricultural waste in the production process, such as crop straw harvest residues (corn stalks, sorghum stalks and straw, etc.); agro-industrial wastes, such as agricultural production process, the remaining rice husk.

Animal manure
Livestock manure, it is the other converting forms of biomass (mainly grain, straw and forage crops, etc.) , including animal manure and their mixtures with bedding.

Wood Pellet Cooler

SLNF SERIES TIPPING TYPE COUNTERFLOW COOLER

• On the principle for advanced counterflow cooling, the cooler is equipped with a tipping type discharging device driven by a hydraulic system. This is characterised by its smooth material flow, adjustable discharge rate and discharge speed as well as uniform discharging.

• The octagonal cooling bin eliminates dead cooling corners - which is beneficial in the cooling of materials.

• The new rotary spreader ensures the material is uniform and is completely cooled with minimum breakage. It also features an adjustable range of material distribution and lower power consumption.

• The temperature of the material after cooling is not 5ºC greater than the ambient temperature while the moisture removal rate is not less than 3.8%, which extends the storage life of high-grade-pellets.

 

---

COUNTERFLOW COOLER

• On the principle for advanced counterflow cooling, the cooler is equipped with a reciprocating type discharging device. This is characterised by its smooth material flow and uniform discharge performance.

• There are pressure relief plates provided above the discharge device which greatly improves the load of discharging, reduces the torque while extending the service life of the component's parts.

• Power transmission is via a camshaft which is driven by a geared motor featuring smooth driving motion reliability, lower noise as well as easy installation and maintenance.

• The temperature of cooled materials is not 5ºC greater than the ambient temperature - which extends the storage time of high-grade pellets.

 

---

Fully Automatic Packing System
