6mm Paddy Straw Pellets

Paddy Straw Pellets are a sustainable, high-energy biomass fuel made from compressed agricultural residue (paddy straw), formed into 6mm diameter pellets. With an impressive calorific value of ~3950 kcal/kg and very low moisture content (~4%), they are ideal for clean, efficient combustion in industrial and commercial heating systems. At a competitive price of Rs 12/kg, these pellets provide a powerful and eco-conscious alternative to coal and firewood.

Key Features & Benefits:

• High Heating Value (~3950 kcal/kg): Comparable to standard coal.

• Ultra-Low Moisture (~4%): Quick ignition, consistent combustion.

• Uniform 6mm Pellets: Suitable for automated feeding systems.

• Eco-Friendly & Renewable: Made from paddy waste that would otherwise be burned in open fields.

• Cost-Efficient: Affordable at Rs 12/kg for industrial-scale applications.

• Supports Pollution Reduction: Helps mitigate stubble burning and reduces PM2.5 pollution.

Primary Applications:

1. Industrial Boilers & Steam Generators
   Used for heating processes in food, textile, paper, and agro industries.

2. Biomass Pellet Burners & Gasifiers
   Compatible with pellet-fed systems in commercial settings.

3. Rural & Community Energy Systems
   Employed in decentralized biomass-based heating initiatives.

4. Furnaces & Heat Treatment Units
   Reliable for operations needing sustained high heat output.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. What are paddy straw pellets made from?
A: Theyre made by compressing dried agricultural paddy straw a waste product from rice harvesting without adding any binders or chemicals.

Q2. How do they perform compared to coal?
A: They offer nearly the same calorific value (3950 kcal/kg) as coal but are cleaner, with less sulfur and heavy metal emissions.

Q3. Can I use them in any biomass boiler?
A: Yes, especially in pellet-compatible or multi-fuel biomass boilers. Due to the ash content (~1518%), systems with ash-handling capacity are recommended.

Q4. Why is ash content higher in paddy straw pellets?
A: Paddy straw naturally contains more silica, leading to higher ash. However, this ash is non-toxic and can often be recycled as fertilizer or soil enhancer.

Q5. Is there a risk of clinker formation?
A: Paddy straw may cause clinkers in poorly designed boilers. Using a properly tuned combustion system with temperature control reduces this risk significantly.

Q6. Are these pellets safe for long-term storage?
A: Yes, if stored in a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.

Q7. Can using these pellets help reduce air pollution?
A: Absolutely. They provide a clean-burning alternative to open field burning of straw, thus reducing particulate pollution and supporting cleaner air initiatives.
