The binding capacity of the lignin, contained in the wood, allows to obtain a compact product without adding additives and chemicals foreign to the wood. A high yield natural fuel is thus obtained. The humidity of the material must be within a narrow range (around 15% m / m) to ensure correct pressing. The combustion of wood pellets produces carbon dioxide and pollutants typical of the combustion of solid biomass. Typical residue are the unburnt materials, and in particular the ashes, the quantity of which is strictly dependent on the type of biomass (about 3% for wood, 9-15% for straw). Thanks to pressing, the calorific value of the pellets, with the same volume but not weight, is approximately double that of wood. The percentage of hardwoods of origin also minimally affects the caloric yield. The pellet is used as fuel for the latest generation stoves, replacing the wood logs. This involves a series of ecological, energy and heating management improvements compared to traditional stoves. Among the environmental and economic advantages it should be noted that the production of pellets is not strictly linked to the felling of whole trees: in fact they can be produced from numerous waste materials such as sawdust and carpentry processing waste, which in this way are revalued as consumer fuel.
