Description

BIGonDRY develops drying solutions designed specifically for biomass, in particular firewood and wood chips. Each installation is matched to the type of packaging, to the production line and to the customer's logistics, with the priority of keeping the investment cost as low as possible and of optimising the energy consumption of the process: two conditions that are essential to make biomass drying economically competitive. The design therefore favours simplicity of operation and energy efficiency over needless sophistication, in order to preserve the profitability of the business. The installations can be connected to 4.0 software that creates a web API interface to the company's management system, making the dryer compliant with Industry 4.0 requirements and making the cycles easier to monitor and to trace. This approach is aimed at wood fuel producers seeking to make their final moisture content reliable while keeping their operating costs under control.
