feed pellet mills for sale
A pellet mill is the core piece of equipment in the pellet manufacture line or pellet plant There are several unlike designs of pellet mill including the flat die pellet mill and the ring die pellet mill At PelHeat we promote for sale predominantly the flat die pellet mill Flat die pellet mills are in most cases used for small scale to medium scale pellet production set ups Flat die pellet mills are smaller plus easier to maintain that sphere die pellet mills A pellet mill works on the principle of pressure and warmth The core workings of the pellet mill are the pressing rollers plus the die The die is where pellet formation takes place As the rollers force the matter through the holes in the die the pellet takes shape Until the finished pellet is forced out the other side of the die The die in addition to its condition are one of the most important features of the pellet mill The die must create sufficient resistance for a strong durable pellet to be created but not too much resistance that the die becomes blocked A range of metals are used to produce the pellet mill die These

electric car pollution
Virgil Sandberg asked Building your own electric car is good for the environment Yet many people believe they will pollute the air almost as much as gasoline powered cars because power plants create their own pollution while they are generating the electric power needed by an electric car This is simply not true The reason people are big on electric vehicles is because the total amount of fuel consumption involved is much less than what gas vehicles consume thanks to the efficiencies involved in a power generating plant Even on today’s electrical grid plug-in cars are cleaner than a gasoline car Even better while electricity is getting cleaner and more renewable every year even the cleanest gasoline car still keeps adding to pollution and always will When you do an electric car conversion on the other hand it just gets cleaner over time as the power plants gets cleaner Grid power comes from unclean as well as increasingly clean sources of energy such as scrubbers for the burning of fossil fuels solar panels wind turbines geo thermal generators and other sources of renewable power This means that electric vehicles will be charged with increasingly clean sources of power as the

It’s outrageous Oil is still spewing out at a rate of at least gallons a day into the Gulf of Mexico It’s never been clearer just how costly our dependence on dangerous and dirty fossil fuels is Yet here in California on Monday oil companies appear to have succeeded in introducing an initiative onto the November ballot that would keep us hooked Largely backed by Texas oil giants Valero and Tesoro dirty energy supporters have already poured more than two million dollars into a campaign to roll back California’s groundbreaking climate and clean energy laws — with tens of millions of dollars waiting in the wings It’s up to us to stop this dirty energy proposition from passing Will you help expose the truth behind the big oil-backed proposition using your local newspapers to help galvanize public opinion against it As our nation is scrambling to contain one of the worst environmental disasters in our history there is no better time to demand that we end our dangerous addiction to dirty fossil fuels and transition to energy sources that are clean renewable and ultimately free Clean energy has been a bright spot in our rough economy and California’s climate and

Jim M Watson asked Electric car conversion kits are becoming more and more popular every day Converting your current vehicle to run on electricity can help you save thousands of dollars on gasoline costs By building your own electric powered car you can Completely eliminate your gas bill Drive up to miles on a single charge Receive tax refunds for driving a clean fuel vehicle Stop emitting heat and pollution and help reduce global warming Soon this technology will be standard in all new cars but until then you can retrofit your existing car to run on electricity even if you are not mechanically inclined Instead of paying an auto-shop up to you can follow the step-by-step instructions of a diy manual and build the system yourself for less than The majority of vehicles can be converted to use electricity but it’s better to choose an automobile that is light and has room for batteries After removing all the gas engine parts you will need to install the electrical components like the electric motor the batteries and the water pump All the parts are easily available at your local auto-shop The cost for the conversion is under and will pay

New American Chemical Society podcast economical biodiesel from sewage sludge WASHINGTON Sept Biodiesel fuel could be produced from municipal sewage sludge at a cost that is within a few cents a gallon of being competitive with conventional diesel refined from petroleum according to the latest episode in the American Chemical Society s ACS award-winning podcast series Global Challenges Chemistry Solutions To boost biodiesel production sewage treatment plants could use microorganisms that produce higher amounts of oil says study leader David M Kargbo Ph D with the U S Environmental Protection Agency EPA That step alone could increase biodiesel production to the billion gallon mark which is more than triple the nation s current biodiesel production capacity he reports Kargbo points out in the podcast that demand for biodiesel has led to the search for cost-effective biodiesel feedstocks or raw materials Soybeans sunflower seeds and other food crops have been used as raw materials but are expensive Sewage sludge is an attractive alternative feedstock the United States alone produces about seven million tons of it each year Sludge is a good source of raw materials for biodiesel Kargbo s results appear in ACS Energy Fuels a bi-monthly journal Biodiesel Production from

The choice of wood pellet storage can have a substantial impact on the wood pellets charge For case biomass pellets in bags are more expensive than bulk deliveries in either large bags or blown loose into a silo The obvious reason for this is there is no fee associated by way of bagging the pellets Though there is the initial fee of installing a silo In the long term however the constant savings on energy costs will benefits the investment on the silo Wood pellet manufactures are seeing more people opt for the pellet silo’s and are thus changing their delivery methods more to pellet tankers instead of pallet deliveries For manufactures moving onto a more loose pellet delivery approach has benefits and compensation The benefit is the reduced investment in pellet bagging machines along with the associated costs Yet they have another price in the pellet tankers required There will be a further market evolution by means of pellet deliveries handled by separate companies Making the process more efficient for the pellet manufactures in addition to also cheaper for the end users Learn more about Pellet Fuel Biomass pellet construction is a rapidly growing market More people are interested
