This makes wood not only a central building material, but also an important energy supplier \u2013 and an elementary adjusting screw of sustainable climate policy.
\nHowever, sustainability also includes the complete utilization of biomass \u2013 and this is precisely where efficient belt dryers from Hans Binder play a decisive role. The demand for high-quality dried wood extends far beyond Germany \u2013 it is global.[\/vc_column_text][eud_button button_text=”Inquire without commitment” link=”\/en\/contact\/” button_size=”eud_button_large” el_class=”arrow”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” eud_bottom_shape=”tilt” eud_bottom_shape_flip=”tt-shape-flip” eud_bottom_shape_color=”#0069B4″ el_class=”shape”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” padt=”100″ padb=”100″ mobpadt=”50″ mobpadb=”50″ content_placement=”middle”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_custom_heading text=”Unbeatable Advantages at a Glance:” farbe=”gruen” fontsize=”fs40″ schriftschnitt=”black” text_transform=”eud_text_transform_uppercase” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” gap=”35″ el_class=”pad_row nogap”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1754291003349{background-color: #0069B4 !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1848″ css=”” el_class=”marg_t40″][vc_column_text farbe=”weiss” fontsize=”fs22″ fontweight=”bold” css=”” el_class=”marg_t10″]Minimal

Large sawmills and planing mills are taking advantage of this development by pressing sawdust and wood shavings into high-quality pellets. <\/p>\n

Before pressing, wood residues often have to be rid of more than 50% moisture. Container belt dryers from Hans Binder bring the material to the desired residual moisture \u2013 precisely, energy-efficiently and without the need for large construction projects. The systems are modularly expandable, weatherproof and ready for operation within a few days.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1849″ css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”35″ padt=”50″ padb=”50″ mobpadt=”20″ mobpadb=”20″ content_placement=”middle”][vc_column pp=”vc_col-sm-push-” width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Wood-based Material Industry” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” farbe=”gruen” fontsize=”fs25″ schriftschnitt=”black” text_transform=”eud_text_transform_uppercase” css=”” el_class=”marg_b10″][vc_custom_heading text=”Utilization down to the smallest fiber” farbe=”blau” fontsize=”fs40″ schriftschnitt=”semi” css=””][vc_column_text fontsize=”fs18″ css=””]Wood chips, wood wool, wood shavings or wood fibers are the basic material for fiberboard, chipboard or insulation materials. Before further processing, the material must be dried to a uniform moisture content. <\/p>\n

Hans Binder offers suitable belt and container belt dryers for pre- and main drying of fibers, chips and OSB strands. By-products such as sawdust are also given a new lease of life \u2013 for example, for pellet production.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column pp=”vc_col-sm-pull-” width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1850″ css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”35″ padt=”50″ padb=”50″ mobpadt=”20″ mobpadb=”20″ content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Wood Gasification and Wood Carbonization” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” farbe=”gruen” fontsize=”fs25″ schriftschnitt=”black” text_transform=”eud_text_transform_uppercase” css=”” el_class=”marg_b10″][vc_custom_heading text=”Electricity and activated carbon from wood” farbe=”blau” fontsize=”fs40″ schriftschnitt=”semi” css=””][vc_column_text fontsize=”fs18″ css=””]For forest owners and wood processors, wood gasification is an interesting way to generate electricity from industrial wood. Activated carbon or fertilizer is also produced during wood carbonization. <\/p>\n

Before both processes, wood chips or shavings must be dried exactly to the required residual moisture. Container belt dryers of the Woody series from Hans Binder offer a modular, efficient and location-independent solution for this.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1851″ css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”35″ padt=”50″ padb=”50″ mobpadt=”20″ mobpadb=”20″ content_placement=”middle”][vc_column pp=”vc_col-sm-push-” width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Wood Processing” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” farbe=”gruen” fontsize=”fs25″ schriftschnitt=”black” text_transform=”eud_text_transform_uppercase” css=”” el_class=”marg_b10″][vc_custom_heading text=”Wood waste as an additional source of income” farbe=”blau” fontsize=”fs40″ schriftschnitt=”semi” css=””][vc_column_text fontsize=”fs18″ css=””]In sawmills, carpentry shops and joineries, large quantities of sawdust, wood shavings and wood residues are produced. Instead of disposing of this biomass at great expense, it can be dried and recycled directly on site \u2013 for example, for pellet production. <\/p>\n

The weatherproof container belt dryers from Hans Binder do not require an additional building, are flexible to relocate and ready for use within a very short time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column pp=”vc_col-sm-pull-” width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”1852″ css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” padt=”100″ mobpadt=”50″ content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_custom_heading text=”Technology & Processes” farbe=”blau” fontsize=”fs25″ schriftschnitt=”bold” css=”” el_class=”marg_b10″][vc_custom_heading text=”Innovative drying,

Whether sawdust, wood chips, OSB strands or coarse chips \u2013 each system is modularly expandable, energy-efficient and can be operated with waste heat, biomass or conventional energy sources.[\/vc_column_text][eud_button button_text=”Discover Our Dryers” link=”\/en\/dryers-technology\/” button_size=”eud_button_medium” el_class=”arrow”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1752998413849{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”1798″ overflow=”yes” overflow_pos=”eud_overflow_img_right” max_width=”960″ max_height=”577″ css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row padt=”100″][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”Other Application Areas:” farbe=”blau” fontsize=”fs40″ schriftschnitt=”black” text_transform=”eud_text_transform_uppercase” css=””][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]
