General comment Data obtained though a semi structured interview made in 2021 with the industry owner in a technical visit at the enterprise located in São Paulo State, Brazil. It is considered from biomass collecting point to industry (distance: 10 kilometers in average).
The pellets manufacturing considers a Lippel pelletizer machine with production capacity 10 ton/Hour in a cogeneration system:
#17.845 MJ/Kg = Average calorific value for penut husk, based on the paper "Optimal use of condensed parameters of ultimate analysis to predict the calorific value of biomass" (Ozyuguran et al., 2014).
#Furnace heating power (Kcal/h) 7,000,000 = 29,307.6MJ
#Total peanut residue to the furnace = 1,642.34 KG
Annual Production of the site = 1,048 ton/year pellets
1 Year is equal to 8,760h average time for production of 10 tons = 83h35min |
