BAKAS

The company has a group of professionals working in the renewable energy sector. Production of wood pellet is the first planned project of the company. Wood pellet production has not been introduced yet in Nepal and BREPL will be the first to establish this kind of industry in the country.  BREPL has selected undergrowth species of Sagarnath Forestry Development Project (SFDP). SFDP is a government-managed plantation in the central Terai of Nepal covering 13,500 hectares. The undergrowth on the plantation site is the cause of fire hazard of Sagarnath Forest and the forest management is spending a huge amount of resources to remove or control burn these materials every year. The green biomass to be removed from the project site will be 30,000MT. Using this quantity of biomass, BREPL has developed a proposal to produce biomass pellet around 10,500 MT/year.  Wood pellets are fuel made from compressed biomass or sawdust used for burning and heating. It is a proven technology of renewable fuel being introduced since two decades. It is most popular in European countries and the United States. The popularity of using pellet as fuel is spreading over the world. The fundamental of being popularity is the environmentally friendly renewable fuel. It is made from renewable resources and helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

How does it work?

Collection of Wood

Transforming forest floor waste alongside discarded materials from the plywood and furniture industries into the essential raw materials for wood pellet production.

Industry image

Chipping of Wood

The collected wood waste and forest floor debris are chipped into small pieces, ready for the next process to reduce moisture.

Rotary Screen

The chipped biomass is dried in the RFD dryer, which includes both rotary and flash drying processes to accommodate sawdust as well as wood chips.

Pelletization

The dried wood chips are processed through pelletization using an Andritz European machine. This PLC-automated machine hammers the wood into dust, pelletizes the raw material, cools the formed pellets, and then sends them to the packaging chamber.

Baggage of Pellets

The pellets are sieved into the required sizes and then packaged using a semi-automatic machine, with package weights varying according to the requirement 25 kg, 30 kg, 50 kg, and even 1 ton.
