Burning a wood pellet generates smoke and particulate emissions, does it not? |
|
Wood pellets are a highly refined heating fuel, which is dried to a uniform 4-6% moisture content. The wood pellets are burned in well controlled systems that run extremely hot and with sufficient airflow to ensure complete combustion. As a result, pellets being burned annually in the United States, particulate emissions from the wood pellets only amount to <1% of the particulate emissions from forest fires and <2% of the emissions from less well controlled wood combustion. |

How is a wood pellet carbon neutral? |
|
It is because that above ground carbon returns to the atmosphere through decomposition if not through combustion. When a wood pellet is burned, the carbon returns to the atmosphere. Unlike propane, electric or oil heating system, no fossil fuels are brought up from underground that accelerate climate change.
It is a fact that combustion of a modern wood pellet appliance is cleaner than organic decomposition in a forest from the perspective of global warming.
