Key for the low investments and fast conversion time is that Arbaflame’s black pellets, Arbacore, share many of the properties of coal. Basically, Arbacore can be transported, stored and handled in the same way as coal.

 

Moreover, the same equipment, including that for pulverising and combustion of the fuel, can still be used. The energy density of Arbacore’s black pellets corresponds to 76 percent of the energy value of coal while white pellets are typically almost as little as half that of coal.
