Cooperations
WEIMA briquetting presses are able to process a wide range of biomass types. Whether miscanthus, straw, wood chips, agricultural waste, peat, hay, tobacco or nutshells – all these materials can be efficiently compacted into compact, dimensionally stable briquettes. These biomass briquettes offer a wide range of possible applications. They are particularly suitable as high-quality fuel for heating stoves, pellet stoves or industrial heat generation. The briquettes are also ideal for sale or self-sufficiency and provide a sustainable source of energy.
Pressing biomass into briquettes offers considerable advantages for companies. The volume reduction of up to 90 % saves valuable storage space. At the same time, it significantly reduces transportation costs. Compared to loose material, the briquettes have improved combustion efficiency. This makes them particularly attractive for use in heating systems. They also enable energy independence by allowing companies to generate their own sustainable heat. Briquetting biomass is therefore an economical and environmentally friendly solution.
Whether miscanthus, straw, wood residues, hay, tobacco, agricultural waste or cotton – WEIMA briquette presses are designed for a wide range of materials. These machines produce high-density briquettes that not only take up less space. They also have a high calorific value. The briquettes are ideal for generating heat. This makes them a sustainable and economical solution.
The briquette form makes your waste transportable and ready for profitable sale. The calorific value of the highly compressed briquettes is much higher than that of loose material, and the combustion properties are ideal. The efficient reuse of biomass as a low-cost alternative for feed production for the agricultural industry has also become indispensable.
Did you know?
For dimensionally stable briquettes made from biomass, the water content of the material should be less than 15 percent.
With WEIMA briquetting presses, companies can not only reduce their biomass waste, but also use it profitably. The compact briquettes are perfect for sale or for your own heating requirements. In this way, companies not only save on heating costs, but also create an additional source of income by selling the briquettes.
Biomass as a fuel offers a sustainable, regional energy source with great potential. Pressing it into briquettes improves its combustion properties and makes its use in heating stoves particularly efficient. In briquette form, the stored energy can be optimally released, enabling an independent and sustainable heat supply. Rely on your own resources and make yourself independent of rising energy costs – with WEIMA biomass briquettes.
Tangible advantages through briquetting
The dust produced during the processing of biomass is not only a nuisance. It also poses a health and explosion risk. WEIMA briquette presses reduce this dust considerably. The dust is fed into the briquette press using the extraction system. It is then compacted and used as briquettes for energy recovery or for sale. This increases safety in the workplace. At the same time, briquetting ensures a clean working environment.
From small to large operations: WEIMA offers briquette presses for every production size. With a throughput capacity of 40 kg/h to 400 kg/h, the machines offer flexible solutions for processing biomass waste. This allows companies to recycle their waste efficiently. At the same time, they minimize their storage and transport costs.
