Biomass Pellets

Turning Grass into Industrial Heat

Coal prices yo‑yo with global politics; firewood supply shrinks; and carbon taxes loom. Enter our torrefied fuel—engineered at a fully‑automated biomass pellets plant in Phaltan. We mill napier residues to < 5 mm, flash‑dry to 8 % moisture, torrefy at 280 °C and press through ring‑die lines. As one of the largest biomass pellets manufacturers in India, we guarantee:

  • 4,000 kcal/kg GCV with ±2.5 % tolerance.
  • Bulk density 650 kg/m³—double that of raw cuttings.
  • Fines < 1 % thanks to anti‑crumble binders.

Benchmark: Biomass Pellets vs Coal

  • Parameter | Napier Pellet | E‑Grade Coal | Advantage
  • CO₂ (net) | 0 (biogenic) | 2.4 kg/kg | Carbon‑tax immune
  • SOₓ | < 0.05 % | 0.65 % | 13× cleaner
  • Ash | 3 % | 18 % | Less disposals

Market Opportunity for biomass pellets in India

Government mandates already require 5 % biomass co‑firing in all coal power stations—unlocking a 30 Mt demand. Our rail‑linked warehouse loads bottom‑dump wagons, ISO containers and 20‑kg retail sacks. Export buyers value our dual audit status as bio pellet manufacturers in India compliant with ENplus A1.

Financial Case Study

A 4 TPH steam boiler at a textile mill switched 100 % fuel from coal to pellets:

  • Capex for grate & feeder retrofit: ₹7 Lakh.
  • Fuel cost delta: –₹1.35 / kg steam.
  • Payback period: 14 months.
