Put in a dryer and a silo - a pto ramp to load the silo and naturally a
silo house to get it out the bottom... :-)

i've always wondered about this too.
why is it not possible to use a wood chipper to chip up trees/branches, put
them in a wire hopper (like the way they used to do corn, a corn crib) and
maybe even possibly have an auger feed mechanism into a furnace. i'm
saying, so you don't have to buy pellets from corporation. it seems it
would facilitate much faster drying, be easier to store, transport, etc.
chipper technology is fully developed, chips would obviate the need for a
expensive pelletizer machine. no splitting, stacking firewood. less dirty,
no bugs, etc.

why don't people do this?!

b.w.

Is there any difference between burning
wood logs versus burning wood chips from
a large chipper?

It seems like wood chips would burn up faster
and not make as good of a fire as with big logs.

But is this true?

Someone, some where has probably done research
on this very topic.

Thanks.
