Hemp Pellet Machine

Product Description

---

The fuel pellet market is currently dominated by premium grade wood pellets, with some niche companies also offering grass and straw pellets. However, the waste wood used for fuel pellets is a limited supply and grass and straw pellets produce more ash, plus clinker and corrosion issues, so many stoves and boilers cannot use them.

The demand for woody shiv is still in its infancy in Canada and the UK and the United States is interested in hemp harvesting and renewable energy. With the Farmer’s Almanac reporting a colder than usual winter season this year, legislators need to step up efforts in recognizing hemp as a natural alternative for energy.

The biggest issue with hemp is the current legal restrictions around its growth. Industrial hemp under many laws today is covered under the umbrella of laws restricting the growth of marijuana. While hemp may look very similar to marijuana it is not the same plant. The THC content of industrial hemp is so small it’s said you would have to smoke a whole field of hemp to feel any effect. Even where hemp is currently legal there are restrictions on its growth. In the UK you can only grow hemp if there is a suitable processor to take your crop. But this creates the ‘chicken and egg’ scenario. It’s very hard to grow hemp as there are very few legally registered processors. And they are very few hemp processors because they don’t have a ready supply of industrial hemp

Is all of the Hemp Plant used to make Fuel Pellets?

No, hemp fuel pellets are only produced from the shiv. Hemp shiv is the woody core of the hemp plant. First, the outer fibre is separated from the hemp plant and goes to make clothing and other products. Large hemp shiv particles can be used in construction in combination with lime. What’s left over are small shiv particles and its these particles that can be processed into hemp pellets.

While wood pellets are currently where the fuel pellet market is focused, hemp pellets could hold significant market share in the future. As the use of industrial hemp scales up, more hemp shiv and shiv dust will be produced. That’s a particular aspect of hemp fuel pellets I find so appealing. The raw material is a byproduct of a byproduct. It means making fuel pellets from hemp is the most efficient fuel pellet process there is.
