1.Biomass wood pellet market in Canada

A report recently filed with the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service's Global Agricultural Information Network predicts Canadian wood pellet production will increase this year. Domestic use and exports are also expected to be up.

According to the report, wood pellet production in Canada has achieved linear growth averaging 12 percent annual increases from 2013 through 2018. Production is expected to reach 3.3 million metric tons this year, up from 3.1 million metric tons in 2018 and 2.7 million metric tons in 2017.

The demand for wood pellets in Europe and Asia will continue to be an important outlet for Canadian producers. Across Asia, South Korea is expected to continue to be an active market, with some independent power producers and industrial sectors (such as steel mills) beginning to use wood pellets. Japan's future growth may be the largest, depending on how many coal plants determine the conversion. The increase in demand in the Japanese market is expected to be about 10-12 Mt per year.

2.Introduction of RICHI 2-5 ton per hour best design wood pellet production line for energy pellets in Canada

Richi Machinery offer whole biomass wood pellet manufacturing plant not only small scale for farm and workshop, but also large scale production for commercial pelletizing factories. The capacity of our wood pellet processing plant for sale ranging from 300kg to 40 tons per hour. We have built lots of successful projects around the world including USA,Romania,Spain,Albania,Iceland,Slovakia,Germany,Austria,etc. Today we will focus on“2-5 ton per hour wood pellet making plant business plan and factory desgin”.

(1)Process flow of 2-5 ton per hour wood pellet production plant for biomass fuel pellets in Canada

A 2-5t/h hot selling complete wood pellet making line is the process structure that transform wood logs, timber or lumber (or other raw material) to pellets. In most cases it includes: raw material crushing, drying, pelletizing, pellets cooling and packing. The wood pelletizing plants manufactured by Richi Machinery cover a wide range of target production,the raw materials suitable for 2-5t/h biomass wood pellet production plant is presented hereafter.

①Debarking

The debarking is made by removing the logs' bark, making easier the chipping and pulverization steps. It can be done mechanically or hydraulically. This step prevent an excess of impurity in the continuation of the wood pelletizing process.

②Chipping

The chipping process is mainly to reduce the material from logs to wood chips. The size of the chips should be about 2 cmX2 cm for maximum efficiency on pulverization step.

③Crushing

CE good quality biomass hammer mill is used to crush the wood chips in even smaller pieces, until it's like a powder. In some cases, an integrated crusher can be integrated to decrease the size even more, so the pelleting step will be more efficient. The addition of one integrated wood crusher also ensures stability to the wood pelletizing equipment.

④Screening This step objective is to clean and purify the material from impurities. These impurities may be leavings from the debarking step or iron scraps, oversized impurities that were accumulated from other parts of the plant. Besides the special sifting equipment, it is also offered magnet tubes installed on conveyors and on pre-pelletizing surge bins to remove residual impurities from metals.

⑤Drying

The material's humidity may be higher than what's desired by the pelletizing step. So, it must be dried in drying equipment. The drying process is made by hot air. The specified humidity is from 12% to 15%.

⑥Pelletizing

Depending on the biomass pellet production scale, a type of wood pellet machine (also called wood pellet press or wood pellet mill) is recommended. For all kinds of factory sale new design biomass fuel wood pellet production line, the recommended is the Ring Die Wood Pellet Making Machine.

In a 2-5 ton per hour customized wholesale wood pellet plant, the wood pellet press machine is the most fundamental machinery. When the material is finished being pelletized, it's shaped in granule or column cylinder. For very wood energy pellet production plants, sometimes more than one wood pellet mill is needed; the Richi Machinery excels in providing biomass pellet plants with assembled ring die wood pellet productioon equipment.

⑦Dedusting System

To reduce fly ash emissions, the pellet plant is designed with a dedusting system which works together with the pelletizing system. The cleaning system consists of a pulse dust collector, cyclone, pipeline and an air lock. The Richi Machinery works with the concept of environmental protection and purifying work environment.

We are very happy to offer clients a manual dust collector and pneumatic pulse dust collector based on different needs. The dust pulse collector is an upgrade of the manual dust collector but has a metal coating and is equipped with a pneumatic system to replace manual force by an automatic dedusting system. Moreover, the dust bags can be renewed with low costs and low maintenance.

⑧Pellets Cooling

Freshly produced biomass pellets may damage the integrity of the package due to high temperature and pressure during production, the temperature of these fresh pellets can be from 80AC to 90AC. For this reason, a cooling system is required to ensure the package content quality and a longer storage time. In addition to the cooling device, the system should be equipped with a cyclone separator to separate pellets from powder and send these last back to the pelletizing step.

⑨Sifting

Besides the powder that may flow with the pellets, some of them may be mealy at this point, so a sieve separate the good pellets from the small amount of mealy ones and qualify the packages.

⑩Packaging and Sealing

Richi Machinery can also provide a packing system. Biomass pellets will be weighed and accordingly packed in bags to facilitate storage, transportation and marketing. The packing models are diverse, according to client's requirement. The automatic packing machine offered by Richi Machinery is integrated with a sealing machine, maximizing the process efficiency.

⑪Electric Control System

A PLC electric control system is very useful in a biomass pellet plant, offering a much more professional experience, which Richi Machinery is able to offer due to abundant experience accumulated over years in connecting a variety of electrical control systems with the pellet plant. The electric system can be based on China's standard or according to client's requirement. The PLC cabinet can be assembled on the surface with an explanatory diagram instructing the operators with the control procedures.

(2)Cost to build a 2-5 ton per hour complete wood pellet plant in Canada

2-5TPH wood pellet plant investment cost in Canada is usually between 100000USD-700000USD.

3.RICHI customized biomass wood pellet line project in Canada

Raw material:50% moisture wood chips , 50% moisture sawdust

Output:2-3 Tons Per Hour

For this project, biggest problem is the workshop part. Customer have a very very special type workshop, and very small,workshop size is 26m*20m*12m(L*W*H),so it is very difficult to build a 2 ton full-automatic wood pellet production line in a factory building that already has a height limit.,so we need to customize the wood pellet line to fit this workshop.
