Yahua Intelligent Equipment is proud to launch our new EFB (Empty Fruit Bunch) Pellet Machine, designed to help palm oil mills turn their waste into a valuable revenue stream by converting EFB into biomass fuel pellets.

Product Overview

The EFB pellet machine processes empty fruit bunches — one of the largest waste streams in palm oil mills — into dense, high-energy biomass pellets that can be sold as fuel for power plants, industrial boilers, and residential heating.

Benefits for Palm Oil Mills

1. Additional Revenue: Biomass pellets sell for $80-120/ton in international markets
2. Waste Reduction: Converts 30-40% of mill waste into saleable product
3. Environmental Compliance: Reduces open-field burning and waste disposal costs
4. Energy Self-Sufficiency: Pellets can fuel the mill’s own biomass boiler

Market Demand

The global biomass pellet market is projected to reach $15 billion by 2028, driven by renewable energy mandates in Europe and Asia. Palm EFB pellets are increasingly sought after due to their high calorific value (approximately 4,000 kcal/kg) and sustainable sourcing.
