Abstract: The literatures about the formation of biofuel pellet research were reviewed. The bonding mechanism and quality parameters of fuel pellet were analyzed, and the influences of material moisture content, storage time, temperature and pressure on pellet quality were summarized. Based on these, a theoretical basis and literature references for reasonable choices of the pelletizing process were provided to improve the physical quality of the biofuel pellets.

Key words: biomass, fuel pellet, binding mechanisms, pelletization
