Assess biomass quality quickly with the Biomass Analyzer.

Biomass Analyzer

The Biomass Analyzer is type approved.

 

Energy, water and ash, three important parameters for both sellers and buyers of biomass. A quick and reliable determination of these is essential for a correct valuation of the biomass.

Mass characteristics

To know exactly how your biomass will perform is also very important. Is it too wet? Or is it too dry, requiring you to mix it with a biomass containing more water? The Biomass Analyzer allows you to make these decisions quickly and with confidence.

Ideal for biofuel heat and electricity power plants (CHP), pellets manufacturer and pulp producers

The Biomass Analyzer is ideal for everyone involved in producing, selling, delivering and consuming wood-based biomass. Not only will it analyse the quality of biomass, it will also help optimise its use.

Easy to use

Taking a measurement is incredible easy. Just fill the sample container, put it into the machine, and press a button. The technology is not dependent on the density of the material or its temperature.

 

Biomass valuation

Correctly assess the monetary value of your biomass by measuring its true energy, water and ash content.

Biomass quality

Knowing the current characteristics of the biomass allows for a more efficient incineration process.

Fast and easy

The Biomass Analyzer is incredibly easy to operate and it only takes a few minutes to analyze a sample container.

Integration

The Biomass Analyzer is easy to integrate with existing ERP systems so that you can keep track of mass quality. The system also has optional RFID labelling to make accurate automatic tracking even easier.

Analyzing biomass

Analyzing a sample in the Biomass Analyzer will only take a few minutes and will provide a wealth of information.

MOISTURE/DRY CONTENT

The moisture or dry content (%) is quantified, which can be used for determining quality and price and for monitoring the target moisture content in your process.

Type approval by Biometria – official measuring method for dry content

The Biomass Analyzer is type-approved by Swedish Biometria for determining the dry content of sawmill chips and sawdust, frozen and unfrozen, in the dryness range 40-70 percent. The type approval means that the machine can officially be used as a measuring method to determine price and quality on the market for sawmill chips and sawdust. Type approvals for more varieties are coming up in 2025 and 2026.

 

ENERGY CONTENT 

(coming up 2025)

The Biomass Analyzer will tell you the true energy content (as received) of your biomass sample. It is an accurate analyzis expressed in MJ/kg.

ASH CONTENT 

(coming up 2025)

The ash content (% dry) quantifies the amount of inert material in the sample.

Types of biomass

One of the unique capabilities of the Biomass Analyzer is its ability to measure a whole range of common biomass.
