1. Diversity of transportation methods
Biomass burning pellets have certain conveniences in transportation, which is first reflected in the diversity of its transportation methods. It can be transported in bags, and the particles are packed in standard packaging bags, which is similar to the common transportation of bagged cement. Bags of Biomass burning pellets are easy to carry, load and unload, and can be operated relatively easily whether they are carried by manpower or using small mechanical equipment, such as forklifts. Moreover, the specifications of bags can be customized according to actual needs, suitable for transportation and use scenarios of different scales. For example, small users can buy small bags, while large users can use large bags to improve transportation efficiency.
In addition, Biomass burning pellets can also be transported in bulk. In some large-scale production and use scenarios of Biomass burning pellets, such as transportation from large production plants to large power plants, bulk transportation can use special bulk transportation vehicles, such as bulk trucks or pneumatic conveying systems. This method can increase transportation volume and reduce packaging costs, which is more beneficial for long-distance and large-scale transportation.
2. Convenience brought by physical properties
The physical properties of Biomass burning pellets also contribute to the convenience of transportation. Its granular form gives it good fluidity, and it can pass through conveyor belts, chutes and other equipment relatively smoothly during loading and unloading. Moreover, the size of the particles is relatively uniform, which allows for better stacking and fixing during transportation, reducing the risk of shaking and scattering during transportation.
Compared with some irregularly shaped biomass raw materials (such as straw bundles), burning pellets are more compact and occupy relatively less space. In the same transportation space, more Biomass burning pellets can be transported, which improves transportation efficiency.
3. Transportation safety
From the perspective of transportation safety, Biomass burning pellets are relatively safe. It does not belong to dangerous goods such as flammable and explosive. Under normal transportation conditions, special safety protection measures are not required like the transportation of dangerous chemicals. This allows it to be transported relatively smoothly in multiple transportation channels such as roads and railways, and there are relatively few transportation restrictions.
4. Challenges faced
However, there are also some challenges in the transportation of Biomass burning pellets. It has certain requirements for moisture-proofing. If it is damp during transportation, it may affect the quality of the pellets and even cause mold and deterioration. Therefore, during transportation, especially in areas or seasons with high humidity, appropriate moisture-proof measures need to be taken, such as using packaging bags with good sealing performance or installing moisture-proof equipment in the transportation vehicle. Despite these challenges, in general, Biomass burning pellets have certain convenience in transportation and can meet the needs of users of different sizes.
