1. FUELFORM(R) FUELS AND BIOMASS
Changing the economics of
pelletising and briqueting fuels and biomass

2. For many years, mining related industries (and more recently,
those involved in biomass) have been troubled by the
economics of how to turn particulate waste material into
efficient, handleable and saleable end product.
When coal is mined, cleaned and transported, considerable
quantities of fine coal (particles less than 5mm) are generated.
A good example is the slurry ponds of waste coal dust which
remain at mine sites after lump coal has been extracted and
washed. There are billions of tonnes of particulate waste
around the world today, causing environmental problems and
giving rise to significant ongoing costs to mining operators,
product handlers and government agencies.
The most widely used solution for utilising large fine waste
volumes to date has been “briqueting” and “pelletising.”
FUELFORM(R) FUELS AND BIOMASS

3. The Silform FuelForm®
system changes the
economics of pelletising and
briqueting fuels and biomass.
The substantially lower
overall costs of this unique
system turns potential
customers’ waste into high
value raw materials and
makes possible the
commercial upgrading and
blending of low rank, high
moisture coals. The Silform
patented FuelForm® system
marks a revolutionary rather
than an evolutionary change
for the industries concerned.
