Sunflower husk pellets
Sunflower husk pellets
Sunflower husk pellets for technical purposes is an alternative biofuel obtained by pressing dried and crushed sunflower husks. Flowability of pellets allows automating their burning in both household and industrial boilers – pellets are poured into the fuel hopper and stoked to the boiler with the help of a screw feed. Consequently, the boiler is able to work without refueling for several days until the fuel hopper is empty.
