Sawdust or wood dust is a byproduct of cutting, grinding, drilling, sanding, or otherwise pulverizing wood with a saw or other equipment. Sawdust as one of the best raw materials for fuel pellet production is abundant world widely. The global potential of sawdust is around 75Mm³, and 2/3 of which are potentially located in Brazil, Russia, Canada, and China, presented in Global sawdust potentials and pellet supply chains. The availability of large amount of sawdust at a fair price from the sawmills and planning mills enables the large scale sawdust pellet production possible.

Which is the more suitable raw materials for pellet making?The heat value of sawdust depends on the density, lignin and extractives contents of its wood species. Since softwoods contains more lignin than hard woods, the calorific values of the softwood sawdust are higher than that of the hardwood. And also lignin is a natural binding materials for pellet production, so the softwood sawdust is better than the hardwood sawdust in terms of sawdust pellet production. Therefore, the sawdust of hardwood are usually mixed with softwood sawdust for pellet production.
