Waste Knot Fuels
The ideal replacement for fossil fuels in industry
Waste Knot Pellets
Waste Knot Pellets are made from a mix of dry waste materials such as wood, paper, card and non-chlorinated plastics that are carefully processed to create a clean, highly specified and consistent alternative fuel.
With a biomass content greater than 55% and a Net Calorific Value of c.22GJ/mt, Waste Knot Pellets are the ideal replacement for fossil fuels in industry.
ContactAdvantages of Waste Knot Pellets
- High Net Calorific Value of >21 GJ/mt
- Ease of transport and handling – pellets can be blown or augered
- Greatly reduced CO2 emissions compared to fossil fuels
- Ability to mix with other fuels – coal, petcoke or wood
- Significantly lower cost per GJ compared to traditional fuels or wood pellets
- Reduce non-recyclable waste going to landfill
- Avoids plastic going to watercourses and oceans
- Biomass content qualifies for ROC payments

Pellet Production Process
Waste Knot Pellets are produced using material from Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Construction & Demolition (C&D) waste streams that arrives at our site after the removal of metals and chlorinated plastics. At WKE we process it further to create a superior, highly regulated product:
- Drying to < 9% moisture
- Shredding in hammer mills to <3mm
- Removal of rigid plastics and other contaminants
- Pelletisation
Cost of Energy
Green Knot pellets can help contribute to savings of more than 50% of energy costs, on a $USD per GJ of energy basis. These savings are thanks to the unique properties of Green Knot Pellets:
- Space-efficient and easy to transport
- Sourced from the UK, no import charges
- High net calorific value
- Qualify for ROC payments
