Acacia, also known as thorntree, whistling thorn, or wattle, is a kind of shrub that is widely grown in Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia and especially Vietnam. In these places, people usually use acacia as wood for making furniture or other purposes. As a result, plenty of sawdust is remained waiting to be made use of.
Some investors outside Vietnam see the opportunity of making wood pellets with acacia sawdust. So they buy ring die pellet maker and build pellet plant in Vietnam.
The general process of acacia wood pellet making
1. Many users have the raw material of acacia sawdust, so the first step is to dry the sawdust since it often contain high moisture. This step needs a conveyor and a rotary drum dryer. The dryer made by GEMCO can dry the sawdust to <18% moisture content, so that it is best to make wood pellets and will have the best forming rate.

4. If you make pellets for sale, the last step goes packing.
