DEVELOPMENT THE COMPLEX APPROACHES FOR INCREASING THE POSSIBILITIES OF USING PEAT IN THE PROCESS OF IT’S DRYING IN PECO DRYERS

National Energy Strategies are developed in many European countries. The importance of increasing the production of local fuels is described in it. One relevant available energy source is peat briquette. But there are several reasons not allowing to increase its production. Some of them are significant pollution of the atmosphere by peat plants, high cost of production products and in some cases the depletion of the raw material base in the locations of peat plants.

In the report, Ireland’s 2018 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Projections marked, that “At best, Ireland will only achieve a 1 % reduction by 2020 compared to a target of 20%» provided by Paris climate agreement [1]. This and the high cost of production were the reasons for decreasing the productivity of peat plant in Ireland in 2018. That is why finding ways to reduce environmental pollution in peat briquette production is a very useful task.
