Rappelez-vous toujours bien d’une chose : l’achat de pellets se fait au kilo. Si vous achetez des kilos de poussière, c’est de l’argent jeté par les fenêtres !
wood pellet with or without additives is a compressed feedstock material, normally cylindrical with broken ends, with a length of typically 5mm to 40mm and a diameter of maximum 25mm. The moisture content of wood pellets normally is less than 10% and they have an ash content of up to 3%. The pellets usually were produced with a pellet mill.
The advantages of pellets compared to log wood or wood chips are among others: the possibility to optimize the combustion because of the uniform fuel, the reduced costs for transportation because of the increased fuel bulk density and the improvement of thermal and combustion properties.
