Straw plant

A Straw boiler is a plant for burning straw and is a useful and environmentally friendly investment that saves a lot of CO2. Our selection of straw burning systems ranges from a small mobile system to larger systems that are optimal for installation at district heating plants.

Straw boilers have different outputs based on the size and capacity of the plant. Large plants often have a machine attached that can cut or tear the straw into pieces so that it can better pass through the plant and be burned.

Depending on the solution you choose (how many boilers your system has), you can fire with several different fuels. If you would like to know more about the different products, please contact us. We’re also happy to talk to you about your needs. This way, we make sure you get the straw boiler that’s perfect for your needs.

Benefits of burning straw over other fuels

When you choose a straw boiler, you’re doing something good for your finances, the climate and your customers. District heating customers get heating that is both environmentally friendly and cheap, and you reduce your carbon footprint.

A clear advantage of burning straw instead of other fuels is that it is a biological material that is often abundant. Since there is a large amount of straw that can simply be burned, the price of straw will probably always be low compared to other fuels.

When you burn straw in an energy-efficient system, you can utilize the energy for both heat and power, and when a straw boiler system produces both, it saves around 30% fuel compared to if the system only produced either heat or power.

Steam straw boiler, connected straw mower and intelligent control

We have several different types of Straw boiler in our range. What our plants have in common is that they can also be used for burning other types of biofuels. We have straw boilers for steam production, and we have systems that are more comprehensive and often have a straw mower attached to facilitate the burning process.
Our systems are optimized for each customer’s needs, and because they are state-of-the-art, they can be smartly controlled via PLC control, and it is possible to connect the system to the internet so you can monitor the system from your mobile, tablet and PC.

What need do you have?

Which solution you choose depends on your needs. Our specialists can advise you on which type of straw boiler is optimal for you and your needs, as well as the area to be supplied with energy/heat. There can be economic and environmental considerations when choosing a type of system for a type of fuel that is abundant in the local area. This way you don’t have to transport fuel over long distances. It saves you money and it’s less of an environmental impact.
We’re happy to talk to you so that you get the solution that’s best for you. Your needs may not be so great right now, but if you have a district heating plant in an area with a high population growth, for example, it may be a good idea to think about your long-term needs. In this situation, it may be optimal to choose a slightly larger system to match the demand as the city/area grows and more people need heat.
Our multi-boiler systems allow you to burn more than just straw, and each boiler can be used for a different type of fuel. This means that you can burn biomaterials other than straw. This way you can customize your burning based on the materials you have access to. A Linka Energy system can easily stand alone, but it can also be combined with an existing incineration solution.
