What do you need to consider before setting up a biomass pellet mill plant ?
 
1. You funds and budget: your budget determines the scale of the biomass pellet plant . Sometimes you may want to set up a large scale one, but may not have enough funds. In this case, you can lower your capacity, or reduce some relatively unimportant equipment. It is not advised to replace the necessary equipment with low price and low quality ones, otherwise you will regret.
 
2. You workshop: in fact, the funds you have also determine your workshop size. The more funds you have, the larger workshop you can build.If you do not have workshop, you’d better build it near your raw material. This can save you a lot of raw material transportation cost. If you already have your own workshop, you shall tell us your workshop height, width and length, so that we can design the pellets production line depending on your workshop size. Otherwise your workshop may not be enough to place the equipments.
