1 NORDIC BALTIC BIOENERGY April 2015, RIGA The AMANDUS KAHL flat die pelleting press a major component of the world wide pellet production.

2 KAHL flat die pelleting presses - Pelleting presses from lab size to large production scale - Drive motor sizes from 3 kw to 500 kw - Die sizes from 175 mm to mm

3 KAHL flat die pelleting presses built for 70 years Compaction and defibering of: - Waste (rdf) - Biomass (wood, straw etc.) - Sewage sludge - Chemical products - Plastic Additives - Waste tyres - Paper - DeInking sludge - Dried beet pulp - Green forage - etc.

5 Did you know? selected Kahl capacities North America t/y Asia Pacific t/y Brasil t/y

6 South East Europe More than 50 Kahl flat die pelleting presses of all types Challenge is hardwood as beech, KAHL presses can do. Other machines have problems

7 Why - KAHL flat die pelleting presses -? What makes the KAHL flat die presses so successful? Why the biggest producer of wood pellets decided to buy KAHL?

8 KAHL flat die pelleting presses Free flow of material into big press chamber - no forced feeding required - sufficient space for flow of material at high capacities - enough space for materials with very low bulk density - easy access to press chamber and tools

9 Grease consumption KAHL flat die press: 0,12 0,15 EUR / ton [2g/h*roller (4 rollers)] other types of presses: some people say higher than 1 EUR / ton [120g/h*roller (2 rollers)]

10 - less wear due to less rotation per same output - longer life time of roller bearings - less noise generation KAHL flat die pelleting presses Slower speed of rollers KAHL Presses 2,5 m/sec, other presses 5 to 7m/sec

11 KAHL flat die pelleting presses Pan grinder head stop for optimum adjustment of rollers and die. Setting of gap and operation without direct contact between die and rollers.

12 KAHL flat die pelleting presses Hydraulic system plus Distamat for automatic roller head pressure control, gap control between roller and die and for press status monitoring during operation

13 Process Control due to Hydraulic Kahl hydraulic system makes it easy to control the present pelleting press condition, directly displayed on the screen. Power consumption: 81,57 % Capacity: 5,6 t/h Press runs rough Press requires resetting After resetting: Power consumption: 75,92 % Capacity: 5,6 t/h Press runs smooth

14 Innovation - roller change without opening of bearing - Use of conventional taper roller bearings - Easy assembly, time saving - Removal of bearing not required - Significant saving of lubricants

15 Heavy duty tools Roller head design with 4 arms and 5 arms With automatic central roller lubrication during operation

16 Low wear h with one set! / Italy douglas fir / pine Ashes < 0.6 %

17 Sophisticated in house manufacturing Adapted metallurgy for dies and rollers for raw materials with different ash content for longer life time ash content in industrial pellets may vary from abt. 0,5 % (chips) to abt. 10 % (harvest residues)

18 KAHL flat die pelleting presses 24 Kahl achieve more than tons per year real production capacity the Pelleting Press our top seller and flagship

19 Australia 4 x

20 USA 12 x

21 Germany 3 x belt dryer + 1 x pan grinder No hammer mill required due to KAHL pan grinder mill!!

22 Montenegro 4 x No hammer mill required due to KAHL pan grinder mill!!

23 Strong in various biomasses Wheat Straw Lentil Straw Bagasse Sunflower hulls Rice husk Coffee husk

24 KAHL flat die pelleting presses proven in industrial operation on: Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) Oil Palm Fronds (OPF) Tropical hardwoods (chips / harvest waste)

25 The most difficult materials KAHL machines can handle at plantation after grinding / drying: Eucalyptus harvest residues: - Low bulk density, high ash content - poor flow properties, tangles together

26 The KAHL pan grinder mill Flat die pelleting press transformed into a grinder mill

27 Chips before pan grinder mill

28 Chips after pan grinder mill

29 EN plus A1 pellets without hammer mill Pan grinder mill Flat die pelleting press

30 Specific advantages of the KAHL Pan Grinder Mill Defibering of biomass wet/dry For difficult materials like veneer, sheepwool, feathers... High-capacity range, up to 35 t/h Low energy input < 20 kwh/t Silent operation, noise level < 82 db (1 m distance) Low space requirement No aspiration system, cyclone, filter and exhaust air plants No Atex problems Flexible die configuration for different products Defibered material suitable for production of EN Plus A1 pellets without hammer mill Same wear and tear parts like flat die press => advantage for maintenance and operation

31 Specific advantages of the KAHL pelleting press Highest proven continuous capacity => 5 6 days without stopping! Lowest operation costs High Availability due to quick exchange of rolls and die => 1hour for rollerhead and die Quality and process control due hydraulic unit at pelleting press (traffic light system ) Long life time of rolls, dies, bearings Very suitable for hardwood Small food print due to high single machine capacity Easy to operate Own possibility to refurbish dies and rolls Small and big machines available

32 Our portfolio for the wood and biomass pelleting industry Complete pelleting plants Pangrinder mills Fabric belt dryers Hammermills Coolers service

33 Kahl facilities at Reinbek (Hamburg) / Germany

34 KAHL pilot plant facilities Equipment for pelleting, grinding, drying, cooling, etc.
