There's a new source of renewable energy: Biomass Pellets
Wood is no longer the only biomass alternative.
Pellet Technology USA provides a new, sustainable source of non-food biomass, focused on corn stover that is abundant, environmentally sound, and free from political controversy.
Pellet Technology USA has developed a turn-key solution for organizing corn stover and other biomass that addresses all of the supply chain steps: 1) stover contracting; 2) sustainability and harvest management; 3) pellet production technology; 4) site location, harvest, and production economics; 5) understanding and addressing biomass customer needs.
The USDA estimates that the U.S. can produce at least 1.3 billion dry tons of cellulosic biomass a year without affecting our food supply or soil quality. That's enough biomass to meet more than half of America's transportation fuel needs or generate about half of our electricity. (USDA Biofuels Strategic Production Report June 23, 2010)
But today's biomass industry is fragmented, unorganized, and not yet up to the task of helping America realize energy independence. There are too many operational gaps between the biomass in our fields and forests and the fuel in our tanks or the electricity in our homes.
Pellet Technology USA's unique, proprietary PowerPellets™ are dense, dry, and free of binders. They can be directly substituted for coal in generating electricity, or they can be specifically formulated as feedstock for cellulosic biofuels or bio-chemicals (green, petro-chemical substitutes). PowerPellets™ don't require any new transportation or storage infrastructure because they ship and store exactly like grain. And PowerPellets™ can be made from corn stover, wood residue, and many other forms of agri-industrial wastes including energy crops such as switch grass.
