For over a century, pellets have been produced by applying heat and pressure to create small cylindrical pellets from a variety of materials for different purposes. One example is wood pellets, which are an abundant and environmentally-friendly fuel source. They provide a clean-burning and cost-stable alternative for home heating. In the 21st century, wood pellets and other fuel pellets are experiencing rapid growth, leading to supply shortages. Due to high oil and gas prices, as well as concerns over climate change, fuel pellets offer a clean and affordable heating option that can help reduce global warming.
