Rice Husk Pellet Machine
Rice husk pellet machine is a high-efficiency biomass processing equipment designed to turn loose rice husks into clean, high-density fuel pellets. It helps users reduce agricultural waste, improve energy utilization, and promote sustainable development with stable performance, low energy consumption, and long service life.
What is the Rice Husk Pellet Machine?
A rice husk pellet machine is a highly efficient biomass pellet making machine specifically designed to compress loose rice husks into dense, uniform cylindrical pellets. These pellets are primarily used as renewable biofuels and can be widely applied in biomass boilers, industrial furnaces, combined heat and power systems, and various power plants.
The resulting pellets have high calorific value, low moisture content, uniform density, and a compact structure, making them easy to store and transport. They also offer high combustion efficiency, stable flame, and low ash content, providing a stable and reliable heat source for industrial and residential energy.
Rice husks are the outer protective shell separated during rice milling and are typically treated as agricultural waste. However, rice husks are rich in organic components such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, making them ideal for pelleting.
Through high temperature and pressure, the husk pellet machine can compress this lightweight, bulky raw material into high-density, uniformly sized pellets, resulting in more stable and efficient energy release during combustion. This also reduces dust and transportation costs, improving the fuel’s economic efficiency and environmental friendliness.
Although rice husk pellets are primarily used as fuel, with proper processing—such as fermentation, alkalization, or mixing with nutrient-rich ingredients like cornmeal, wheat bran, and soybean meal—they can also be used as a supplementary feed ingredient for cattle, sheep, pigs, and poultry. These feed pellets provide abundant crude fiber, promoting animal digestion and gut health, and achieving the recycling of agricultural byproducts.
In summary, the rice husk pellet machine is a highly efficient, energy-saving, and sustainable solution that transforms low-value agricultural byproducts into high-value fuel pellets. This not only reduces the environmental impact of agricultural waste and lowers fuel costs but also promotes the development of renewable energy. By using this equipment, farms and businesses can achieve not only economic benefits but also fulfill their environmental responsibilities, achieving a dual improvement in economic and social benefits.

To help you make a better decision, we have compiled answers to the most frequently asked questions from our global customers.
What is the rice husk pellet machine price?
+
The rice husk pellet machine price generally ranges from $10,000 to $90,000, depending on the model, production capacity, configuration, and level of automation. It utilize a high-efficiency transmission system, wear-resistant alloy steel core components, and advanced automatic control design, effectively saving energy and maintenance costs compared to other equipment. This means that in the long run, customers can enjoy lower energy consumption, longer equipment lifespan, and a faster return on investment.
Can I use one rice husk pellet machine to produce both fuel pellets and feed pellets?
+
It is not recommended to produce fuel pellets and feed pellets simultaneously on the same equipment. The two differ significantly in formulation, compression ratio, temperature, and hygiene requirements. Fuel pellets are often made from inedible materials such as rice husks and straw, while feed pellets must meet strict food safety and nutritional standards.
Using the same equipment to produce both types of pellets can easily lead to cross-contamination, affecting feed safety. The best approach is to use separate equipment or production lines for fuel and feed production.

How can I choose the most suitable rice husk pellet machine for my project?
+
Choosing the right rice husk pellet machine depends primarily on your raw material conditions, target production capacity, and intended use. If the rice husks have a high moisture content, a drying system before pelletizing is recommended. For small production lines, a small machine with a capacity of 1–2 tons per hour is sufficient, offering low cost and easy maintenance. For commercial fuel pellet production, a large pellet machine is recommended for higher pelletizing efficiency and more stable operation.
In addition, you need to confirm the local voltage standard, raw material bulk density, and target pellet diameter. Our engineers can provide customized design solutions based on your specific needs, including production line layout, power configuration, and cost assessment.
