Abstract

The growing global demand for energy, as well as the global demand for a higher share of the use of renewable energy sources, is leading to intensive development of the production of solid biofuels in the form of pellets. Biomass pelleting technology is successfully used to produce solid high-grade biofuel in the form of pellets. This biofuel is currently an important trade item in the energy markets. The development of pelleting technology also brings higher demands on pelleting machines and tools. Pressing tools are the powerful core of the entire technological line for the production of solid biofuels. The paper deals with biomass pelleting technology and describes the requirements and limits of this technology. It focuses in great detail on the pressing tools of pelleting machines. The work examines in detail the design of pressing dies and pressing rolls. The above knowledge are based on the personal experience of the authors as designers of pelleting machines and tools. The published information is of great practical importance for the development of pelleting technology and for moving forward in the design of pressing tools
