The promotion and application of Biomass burning pellets in rural areas has many advantages. First, rural areas are rich in biomass resources, such as crop straw and branches, which can be used as raw materials for Biomass burning pellets. They are easy to obtain and relatively low in cost. It can provide rural residents with a relatively economical energy option and reduce their dependence on traditional high-priced energy. Secondly, Biomass burning pellets have a high combustion efficiency. Compared with the direct combustion of raw biomass, they can make more full use of energy and generate more heat to meet the needs of rural families for heating and cooking. Moreover, its combustion is relatively clean, and the pollutants such as sulfur oxides produced are relatively small, which has a certain improvement effect on the air quality in rural areas.
However, the promotion and application also faces some challenges. In terms of raw material collection, although rural biomass resources are abundant, they are scattered and difficult to collect. A certain amount of manpower and material resources need to be invested in collection, transportation and storage, which may increase costs. Technical awareness is also a problem. Some rural residents are not familiar with the use of Biomass burning pellets and supporting combustion equipment, and relevant training and promotion are needed. In addition, the production of Biomass burning pellets requires a certain scale of equipment and technical support. Building production facilities in rural areas may face the problem of shortage of funds and technical personnel. Moreover, the quality of Biomass burning pellets on the market is uneven, and the lack of unified quality standards and regulatory mechanisms may lead to some low-quality products flowing into the rural market, affecting user experience and promotion effects. In addition, the initial investment cost may be high for some rural users. Although there are economic benefits in the long run, it is difficult to convince them to invest. In short, in order to successfully promote and apply Biomass burning pellets in rural areas, it is necessary to solve these problems of coexistence of advantages and challenges, and promote its development through reasonable policy guidance, technical support and market regulations.
