Sawdust pellets are an alternate fuel, made from compressed sawdust.[1] Sawdust was a byproduct of turning raw wood into manageable sized lumber.
Users of pellet fuel usually use special pellet stoves, built to burn pellets.[1] Due to their standard size, pellet stoves can be designed to burn their fuel more precisely, so the combustion produces less harmful smoke.[2] Due to their standard size, pellet stoves can be fueled from a hopper, and automate the longer term management of a large supply of pellets.
