Fuel Handling Systems

SCW Bio-Energy Products offers advanced boiler systems equipped with automated fuel feeding solutions—either a hydraulically operated Walking Floor Fuel Supply or a Silo Feeding System.

Fuel Handling Systems

SCW Bio-Energy Products boiler systems need to be equipped with an automatic fuel feeding system. These can be either a fully equipped hydraulically operated Walking Floor Fuel Supply system or the Silo feeding system.

Each of our systems can be equipped with any of the three fuel handling options that SCW offers, providing tailored solutions for wood pellets, wood chips, oat hulls, and other biomass materials.

Every system is custom-built to accommodate a variety of equipment sizes and fuel types, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance.

Our hydraulically operated walking floor systems are engineered for durability and can withstand the high forces encountered during continuous operation, delivering reliable and efficient fuel handling in even the most demanding conditions.

3 fuel handling options:

1. Permanent walking floor systems

Walking floors consist of a series of raised metal slats, mounted on runners, and actuated in sequence to the next slat in line. This creates a “walking” motion, pushing woodchip along the floor on this ladder of raised slats to a discharge conveyor at the end of the store. Actuation is typically a combination of hydraulic and mechanical.

Fully Automated

Fully automated and integrated into the boiler or furnace control system.

Latest Technologies

Manufactured using the latest technologies and robust materials.

Easy to Install

Can be installed in a existing structure.

Available in Various Size

Comes in various sizes, depending on the size of the boiler type and fuel supply.

2. Portable floor systems

Each unit seamlessly connects to any of our systems with a simple, plug-and-play setup for quick integration. Designed for easy loading with either small skid steer or large loader.
This solution is commonly used with our biomass grain drying systems, providing a reliable and adaptable fuel handling option.

Hydraulics Operated

Hydraulics are operated and automated and integrated into the boiler or furnace control system.

Fully Automated

Fully automated and integrated into the boiler or furnace control system.

Easy to Install

Can be installed in a existing structure.

Two Sizes

Systems come in two sizes: 42’ and 35’.

Dry and Protected

Equipped with rolling tarp to keep the biomass dry and protected.

Fast Turnaround

Efficient process for both small and large-volume runs

High Precision

Exact bends for perfect part fit and function

3. Silo or Hopper bottom Bins

Gravity performs the greatest portion of the conveying in the silo bin reducing power consumption to the lowest possible levels. Minimum service is required since the mechanical conveying equipment is simple and effective.

Versatile Capability

Suitable for various metals and thicknesses

Custom Angles

Form complex shapes up to 120 degrees with consistency

Our Systems only use Environmentally friendly Biomass fuels.

Wood chips

Wood chips offer the advantage over logs. Easily form uniform flow to be fed automatically into a boiler. Making them suitable for larger boilers.

Pellets

Wood pellets are a clean, free flowing form of woodfuel that can be delivered by tanker through a hose and allow a fully automatic heating system.

Biomass briquettes

Briquettes are similar to wood pellets, but physically larger. Sizes vary but briquettes can vary in diameter from around 50 mm to 100 mm or more.

Logs and firewood

Simplest & most traditional form of fuel is firewood logs. The only processing required is drying and cutting to a size that to convenient for your boiler.
