Specialists in Biomass Energy Systems and Biomass Fiber Drying

WET AND DRY FUEL STORAGE SYSTEMS

The Teaford Company offers several options for wet and dry biomass storage systems. The biomass storage systems include a Teaford designed unloading system as well as screw, belt and chain conveyor systems. The wet biomass storage systems include durable and tough designed walls with a ladder unloading system. The reciprocating floor is designed to allow for control of material unloading speed depending on the process needs. The wet biomass storage bins can be designed with by-pass conveyors and chutes as well as multiple feed systems. The wet bin is designed to hold wet bark, sawdust or any other biomass with high moisture content needed for biomass combustions systems on pellet plants, OSB, MDF, particleboard, steam boilers or cogeneration facilities. The dry biomass storage systems are designed for lower moisture content materials like sanderdust, planer shavings or other lower moisture content biomass materials. The dry bin is a round silo with a rotating screw auger in the bottom to unload the biomass material.

The Teaford Company also provides multiple styles of conveyors and reclaimers to fit the need of any process. From fuel bypass systems with screw conveyors to reclaim hoppers with multiple screw conveyors, we can provide the type of material handling systems you need. The belt conveyors and drag chain conveyors are also available for fuel handling. The conveying systems are designed and engineered for long life and low maintenance. Call us today to discuss your biomass storage and handling needs.
