Cleaner Pellet Production. Energy Consumption Study Using Statistical Analysis

This study investigates and analyses the methodology for introducing cleaner wood pellet production. A statistical model is developed for the energy consumption analysis. Efficiency indicators have been chosen which allow determining the impact on the production process. The developed model can be used in other similar type of industries. This study has processed large empirical data with statistical methods in order to establish the efficiency indicators. The modelled results enable to define the indicators which lead to higher efficiency and hence to the cleaner production.
