Woodchip fuel has been increasingly adopted as part of the bio-energy initiative to reduce the use of fossil fuels and promote sustainable fuel production. Stronga have been advocating the use of dry biomass in energy production for many years. Recent research has confirmed the stark increase in emissions when using wet woodchip fuel in energy production.

Drying Bark Beetle Infested Woodchip – Turning Residues into Energy & Biochar
Bark Beetles (Scolytinae) are one of the most environmentally-destructive pests. There are up to 6,000 known species of bark beetle found in multiple countries with affected areas in America, parts of Asia, Alaska, Norway, Germany, the UK and beyond. Discover how drying infected wood can help ‘re-green’ and re-generate forestry while adding financial value.
Stronga Solutions for Batch Drying Woodchip Fuel on Small-Scale
Stronga offer small-scale Drying Stations solutions for sawmills with spare wood, presenting an opportunity to dry by-products of timber products. Read on to understand how you can increase your income in a period where woodchip fuel is in high demand.
From Sawmill to Energy Production Plant
Stronga recently supplied FlowDrya equipment to a family-owned sawmill who are drying woodchip to produce a high calorific fuel for on-site energy production via wood gasification.
Opportunities for Sawmills to Diversify into the Energy Market
In a world where renewable energy resources are highly valued, sawmills are well-equipped to benefit from valuable wood residues which, when suitably dried, are useful for energy production, among other opportunities. Collaborating with Stronga enables sawmills to achieve more, using less.
Stronga FlowDrya – Visualising the PulseWave™ Material Agitation Motion
Designed for optimum thermal and energy efficiency, FlowDrya offers great value in the form of lowest cost per ton dried. In this new animation, we visualise the significant benefits of PulseWave™ material agitation– a key feature of the FlowDrya which enables big performance improvements when compared to other dryers available in the market.
