Quantity of Raw Material for Pellet Production
Millions of tons of agricultural waste are burnt every year in India. According to 2000-word analyses, to make 1 ton of pellets, about 1.2 tons of dry waste (like stubble, corn stalks, peanut shells) is required. Pellets have a very high calorific value, making them an excellent alternative to coal. This not only reduces pollution but also gives the farmer an opportunity to earn good money from his useless stubble.
Where are Pellets Used?
Their primary use is in "industrial boilers" and "power houses" with coal (Co-firing). Apart from this, the use of pellets for cooking in hotels and keeping houses warm is also increasing. Farmers can also set up small pellet plants for energy needs on their own farm. This is the most scientific way of waste management. Transport is easier compared to biogas production because the density of pellets is very high.

Result: Pollution-Free Environment and Extra Income
Making pellets eliminates the problem of stubble burning and the farmer gets a price of up to 5-8 rupees per kg.
Protection of Soil Creatures
By not burning stubble, friend pests and microorganisms living inside the ground remain safe.
Proactive Protection of the Environment
Reducing air pollution is the real protection. Pellets are a source of green energy.
