Wood chip heating systems are popular because they are environmentally friendly and cost-effective. For your wood chip heating system to function optimally, you should screen the wood chips before burning them. In this blog post, you will learn why a wood chip screening plant is worthwhile and how to find the right system for you.
Why screen wood chips?
Screening offers many advantages:
- Improved fuel quality: Impurities such as dirt, stones, and bark are removed. This leads to cleaner and more efficient combustion, saves fuel, and reduces emissions.
- Reduced risk of clogging: Impurities and large wood chips can clog the heating system. Screening reduces this risk and ensures trouble-free operation.
- Extended system lifespan: Fewer impurities and cleaner combustion extend the lifespan of your heating system and reduce maintenance costs.
- Increased safety: Stones and other hard objects are removed. The risk of damage and injury decreases.
- Improved appearance: Screened wood chips look cleaner and more attractive. This improves the appearance of the boiler room or storage area.
What types of wood chip screening plants are there?
There are various systems that differ in size, performance, and functionality:
- Drum screens: Rotating drum with screen linings of different mesh sizes. Wood chips are fed in and separated by rotation. Drum screens are available in various sizes and performance levels for private and commercial use.
- Vibratory screens: Screen deck that is vibrated horizontally or vertically. Wood chips are placed on the screen deck and separated by vibration. Vibratory screens are compact and inexpensive, making them well-suited for private use.
Screening wood chips is important to optimize the performance and efficiency of your wood chip heating system. With a wood chip screening plant, you save fuel costs, extend the lifespan of your heating system, and protect the environment.
