Biomass Handling Equipment
Reliable Material Flow, Engineered for Industrial Operation
Korrell Industries designs and delivers complete biomass handling systems to ensure efficient, continuous, and controlled movement of materials across industrial processes.
Our systems are engineered to handle challenging biomass materials such as Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB), fibres, wood chips, and other bulk solids, ensuring reliable flow from receiving to processing and discharge.

System Overview
Biomass handling is a critical component in ensuring overall plant performance and operational stability.
Poor handling design leads to blockages, inconsistent feeding, and reduced system efficiency. Korrell’s handling systems are engineered to overcome these challenges, ensuring smooth material flow even under varying moisture content, bulk density, and material conditions.
Each system is designed as part of an integrated process, aligned with upstream and downstream equipment.
Scope of Handling Systems
Our biomass handling solutions include, but are not limited to:
Receiving & Feeding Systems
- Receiving hoppers and storage bins
- Controlled feeding systems for downstream processing
- Metering and flow regulation systems
Conveying Systems
Chain Conveyors (Drag / Scraper Type)
Suitable for fibrous and heavy biomass materials such as EFB
Screw Conveyors
Ideal for controlled transfer, dosing, and enclosed conveying
Belt Conveyors
Used for long-distance and high-capacity material transfer
Custom Conveying Systems
Designed based on layout constraints and material characteristics
Storage & Buffer Systems
- Intermediate storage bins and silos
- Surge hoppers for process balancing
- Material buffering for stable system operation
Discharge & Transfer Systems
- Controlled discharge mechanisms
- Transfer points and chute design
- Integration with downstream equipment
* The above scope is indicative and not exhaustive. Korrell Industries provides custom-designed handling systems tailored to specific project requirements.
Engineering Considerations
Our handling systems are designed based on real material behavior and operational conditions, including:
- Material type (fibrous, granular, or mixed biomass)
- Moisture content and stickiness
- Bulk density and flow characteristics
- Required throughput and conveying distance
- Inclination and layout constraints
Proper engineering ensures reduced downtime, minimized blockages, and stable operation.
System Integration
Korrell Industries provides fully integrated handling systems as part of complete plant solutions, ensuring seamless coordination between:
- Drying systems
- Briquetting and pelletizing lines
- Heat generation systems
- Storage and discharge systems
Our integrated approach eliminates mismatch between equipment and improves overall plant efficiency.
