In depth guide into wood and how it is used for biomass boilers. Includes Log, Wood Pellet and Wood Chip.
Wood has traditionally been regarded as a simplistic fuel that everyone has an inherent understanding of, but the reality is that it is the most chemically complex fuel that anyone will come into contact with and to compound wood’s chemical complexity it does not have even the consistency we take for granted in oils and gasses because it does not receive any refinement. When you add to all the uncertainties of wood’s makeup, the problems associated with transporting it and to delivering quantifiable amounts to the point where it is to be burned, then only the fact of it being produced by nature in a relatively short time makes it a desirable fuel to burn without the wide range of engineering skills that have been invested into your Zero Ridge supplied boiler.
