Me too


In this regard do you know wood pellets and flax? (Chatoune pet store) there is probably linseed oil in it (it smells very good!)

Absorption capacity of 200% can burn in a stove, and costs in a bag € 11 / 45L

w / volumique350 / 450
ph.moyen: 9
absorbency: 200%

Grade: 9

If someone has the opportunity to try it ???

No, don't know.
Using it in a stove is when you don't use it as litter ...

Think again; it cannot be used as a fuel if it has already been used as a litter ... Furthermore, the smell should no longer be the same ...

Well imagine that they think about it ...

And I imagine that under certain conditions, it must be doable ...

I thought to myself that if we find it in a bag at 11 € we should be able to find it in bulk ... for at least 1/3 less, right?

It remains to be seen where ... : Cheesy:

But, I'm talking about it, because I tell myself that someone on econology will one day test ...

Unfortunately, I can't, not even having a fireplace in my home (which as Francis Cabrel would say with the accent please: "is not even a house ...")

Christophe, have you already burn your cat's litter ???


No not mine, miawww! it would not be livable !!! : Mrgreen:

I did not understand how the crusher works ...

But I have always said that "the pellet", we can do without a shredded biomass and very dry green waste, and also as said Citrus, all cartons and wrapping paper.

So I can only encourage Steff !! 8)

For Lietseu's litter, it is certainly excellent for compost. : Cheesy:

In general, these are hammer mills which break down the material into small particles, which can therefore be pelletized in the ad hoc machine.

For biomass hoses, they are perfectly suitable for the production of pellets.
The interest and the purpose of the pellets consists in their particle size calibrated to operate reliably with the fuel supply and metering systems.
:?
Finally, the very structure of the pellets (density, hygrometry) makes them very superior to ground materials, whether in terms of volume energy or mass energy. It must surely be the same for the quantity of ash resulting from combustion.

Lots of superlatives in previous posts. At my venerable age, I have a natural tendency to be wary of discoveries of genius ... It does happen, but not every day!

At least one doubt: use a material with more than 20% humidity, dry it "more or less"during the process and obtain a product of higher quality than Din + (I remind you: 8% maximum humidity) ... ??? Mwouai, I don't mind ... But to get below 10% of humidity is not spinning!

But go ahead. There is always a scetique on a forum...

Afterwards, it is certain that even unstandardized pellets will burn in multi-fuel boilers liable to swallow cereals, sawdust, etc. So there, yes, I think there is a way to recycle all kinds of biomass.

Finally, watch out for emissions other than CO² when you burn a little anything ...



And probably a second

And there is also that a pellet should not be too hard, otherwise it may block the screw.
STEFF, you seduced us and your device interests me.

New production of wood pellets

Someone will have news of this project, soon a year that this message has been published.
In Brittany he mixes potato starch to have dust-free granules.

fine grinding and extrusion in a single operation, significant heating and therefore drying. The shape of the rollers is very important
