3. Market analysis of 50,000 tons/year biomass fuel wood bamboo branch straw pelletizing plant project

(1) Overview of the sales market

Producing biomass pellets, replacing traditional coal, firewood and other fuels, as fuels for various boilers and fuel heating devices, is currently relatively easy to achieve industrialized operations and create considerable economic benefits in a relatively short period of time Direction of development. Biomass pellets can be used as fuel for combustion equipment such as steam boilers, hot water boilers, organic heat carrier boilers, steam generators, fireplaces, etc. The manufacturing technology of the corresponding combustion equipment has been mature, and various biomass pellet making equipment are also widely available. Whether it is factories, hotels, hospitals, schools, bathing, catering, office buildings, etc., or industries such as food, chemical, printing and dyeing, heating, power generation, etc., biomass molding fuels can be used, and even ordinary households can also use them.

The principle and materials of combustion equipment using biomass briquettes as raw materials are the same as those of coal-fired combustion equipment, so the equipment prices are basically the same. In addition, traditional combustion equipment can be transformed into combustion equipment using biomass briquettes as raw materials. The use of biomass briquettes does not require repeated purchase of equipment. Regarding the biomass pellet fuel market, RICHI conducted a simple sample survey. The Zhejiang area sampled and surveyed the coal, oil, gas and other boiler units currently used by three customers. They all intend to use biomass pellets, and use biomass pellets every year. The fuel is about 30,000 tons. The result of this simple sample survey shows that the market sales of biomass pellet fuel is not a problem.

The ex-factory price of biomass wood chips (bamboo chips) pellets in China's domestic market is 1,000 yuan/ton for small packages (50 kg), and about 950 yuan/ton for large packages (tons); corn stalks (cotton stalks) The retail price of small packages of pellets is 450 yuan/ton, and the price of large packages is about 400 yuan/ton. In 2008, the purchase price of Japan and South Korea was about US$140-US$160/ton; the retail price of small packages in the US market was US$170/ton, and the price of large packages was about US$135/ton; the delivery price in Sweden was US$150 /Ton. The National Development and Reform Commission’s Biomass Briquette Development Plan proposes that by 2015, in combination with addressing rural basic energy needs and changing rural energy use methods, the construction of biomass pellet fuel application demonstration sites will be carried out to achieve annual consumption of 8 million tons of pellet fuel, replacing 5 million. Tons of coal. During the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, the government will invest a lot of financial and manpower to promote biomass energy utilization technologies nationwide.

(2) Supply of raw materials:

①Utilize existing local resources: According to the statistics of Zhejiang Provincial Forestry Department, within 200 kilometers of each prefecture and city in the province and the surrounding area, we need biomass raw materials such as: urban garden pruning branches, forestry waste , Rotating branches, sawdust, urban decorations, wood processing plant waste, waste bamboo, rotating bamboo, etc., there will be more than 5 million tons per year. If 2% is recycled, there will be 100,000 tons of waste wood ( Branches) and moso bamboo. According to RICHI's market survey, at that time, each city in Zhejiang Province had an average of less than 1 biomass power plant and only 1 small pellet manufacturing plant. Therefore, at that stage, there would not be a situation of mutual snap-up and vicious bidding of biomass raw materials.

②Establish biomass fuel base: adopt contracting barren hills and wastelands, riverside beaches, tidal flat wastelands, inland river wetlands, etc. to plant fast-growing trees, which can not only help water and soil moisturizing, but also green the environment, and improve the role of climate change in preventing wind and sand fixation. At that time, RICHI inspected a number of fast-growing tree species such as poplar, eucalyptus, willow, bamboo and willow, etc. The highest annual biomass growth per hectare was 13 tons, 39 tons, 67 tons, and 150 tons. The material produced per mu is about 0.7 tons, 2.3 tons, 4.3 tons, and more than 10 tons. 

Bamboo willow is a new variety of hybrid fast-growing willow. It is a deciduous tree with obvious central leading stem, straight body, strong top growth advantage, fewer lateral branches and small branch angles, and the crown is smaller than ordinary willows. It grows vigorously and fast, and is very suitable for high-density planting. It is an excellent tree species for establishing a biomass fuel base. The planting number per hectare reaches about 1 million (equivalent to 67,000 plants per acre-about 100 plants per square), and the growth per plant reaches more than 0.15 kg, and the growth per hectare will exceed 150 tons, equivalent to more than 10 tons per acre. Therefore, bamboo willow is more suitable as a species for ultra-short-term rotation coppice forest operation system. At the same time, a short rotation period makes it easier to ensure the frequency of production raw material supply, thereby increasing the utilization rate of biomass molding fuel production equipment and saving costs.

Bamboo willow is suitable for planting in most areas of China, and the suitable planting area covers almost the entire China. Bamboo and willow are water-resistant and resistant to saline and alkali, and a large number of unsuitable forests and barren hills, valleys, river beaches, river islands, river islands, coastal beaches, developable wetlands, artificial reservoir wetlands, seaside land, inland saline-alkali land, groundwater Marginal land such as higher sandy wasteland, mines, and oilfield reclamation land can be planted and used; under the conditions of pH 8.0-8.5 and salt content 14000ppm, it can grow normally. If the customer builds a biomass fuel base of more than 10,000 acre, it can provide more than 100,000 tons of bamboo and willow trees each year. Then, the raw materials required by customers are more secure.
