This is a straw pelletizing plant in Uganda project, and it is also our latest fuel pellet processing project in Uganda. At present, our projects in Uganda have covered the processing of livestock and poultry feed, grass feed, fish feed, straw feed, biomass fuel and organic fertilizer. In addition, it also includes products such as straw grass drying system and straw crushing system.
Biomass resources are renewable resources. Biomass solidification molding fuel, as a commodity energy, completely solves the problem of burning crops everywhere, seriously polluting the environment and causing a large amount of resource waste.
It can completely replace the crop straw directly burned by farmers, and partially replace coal ash, oil, natural gas and other mineral energy. It can be developed and utilized on a large scale, which is of great significance to alleviate the current energy shortage, ensure energy supply, improve the level of rural energy use, and change the living environment of farmers.
Under this situation, the project client, an agricultural product company, decided to invest in the construction of a straw pellet processing project, using corn straw to produce biomass pellets to provide high-quality fuel for urban and rural life and production.
After the completion of the straw pelletizing plant in Uganda project, the sub-project can achieve an annual output of 60,000 tons of straw pellets. The specifications of straw pellets are block combustibles with dry matter density of 1.1-1.2t/m3, moisture content less than 15%, and diameter of 8-10mm.
The construction period of this straw biomass pellet production line project is from June 2018 to May 2019, with a construction period of 11 months. The labor quota of this project is 15 people. The annual planned working days are 250d, with two shifts per day and 8h per shift.

The composition of the straw pelletizing plant in Uganda project content is detailed in the table below.
| Engineering Category | Name | Engineering Content and Scale |
| Main Engineering | Production Workshop | Raw materials are directly transported to the factory by farmers and suppliers. After entering the factory, they are all stacked in the closed production workshop. Each transportation is 600t, which meets the production needs for 2 days. The raw material storage area in the production workshop covers an area of 300m2, the stacking height is 3m, and the total stacking volume meets the raw material stacking needs. |
| Finished Product Warehouse | The finished product storage volume in the factory area is 4000t, and the storage period is 15d, which meets the finished product storage needs. | |
| Agricultural Machinery Warehouse | Occupies an area of 749m2. | |
| Auxiliary Engineering | Office area, dormitory, toilet | Occupies an area of 304m2. |
| Pump room, power distribution room, boiler room | Occupies an area of 175m2. | |
| Public Engineering | Water supply | Provided by deep wells in the factory area. |
| Drainage | Discharged into the anti-seepage septic tank in the factory area. | |
| Power supply | Supplied by the local power grid. | |
| Heating | The heat used in the production process is a 1t/h biomass and methanol dual-purpose hot air furnace, with biomass pellets and methanol as fuel. In actual production, biomass pellets are the main fuel, and methanol is used as a supplementary fuel in case of biomass combustion failure. It is purchased as needed and is not stored in the factory. The waste heat of the hot air furnace is used for domestic heating, which can meet the heating needs of the factory. |

The overall prospects for building straw pellet production line in Uganda are optimistic, but it is necessary to consider multiple factors such as technology, market, and policy.
Straw pellet processing technology is constantly innovating, and new pelleting technology can greatly improve pelleting efficiency and reduce production costs. For example, the use of advanced pellet machine equipment can ensure the stability and consistency of pellet quality and improve production efficiency.
In addition, dry pelleting technology does not require the addition of any binder, which can effectively solve the problems of pellet quality and environmental pollution.
Straw pellet feed has a strong market demand, especially in the breeding industry. High-quality feed is expensive, while straw pellet feed is not only cheap, but also has high nutritional value, suitable for feeding herbivores such as cattle and sheep.
Uganda has a developed breeding industry and a large demand for low-cost and high-efficiency feed, which provides a broad market space for straw pellet feed processing.
The government has attached importance to and supported the straw pellet processing industry, and has introduced a series of policy measures to encourage farmers to actively participate in the straw pellet processing industry, provide financial subsidies and tax incentives, and promote the healthy development of the industry.
These policy supports help reduce entrepreneurial risks and promote industrial development.
