Why do the biomass pellets produced by the biomass pellet machine coke or slag after burning?

First of all, biomass pellets coking and slagging are two concepts:

Coking is caused by some non-flammable organic matter, mainly sugar or oil content.

The slag-like material formed is silica. There are two reasons for slagging. One is because the sand burns in the furnace and reaches high temperature, forming a glass-like or coke-like slag-like object. This is the state of slag formation, which indicates that the material There are more impurities in it and the sand content is relatively high. The second is because the substance is not fully burned.

How to solve the problem of coking and slagging of biomass pellets?

There are different solutions for different problems:

In response to coking, we can minimize the sugar and oil content in the raw materials

For slagging, quicklime and bentonite can be used. These two materials are helpful in reducing slagging.
