In a posting a couple of days ago, there was the mention of producing biomass pellets. I think there is a lot of merit in the idea. We cold press oil on the farm for my own use (biodiesel/SVO) and the fines that settle out of the oil, we mix with saw dust (from the wood heap) or wood shavings, make balls and wrap them in newspaper. Tie the top with string, and bingo...firelighters (we call them canola bombs!). We use them either to help start a fire, of if you've got a lot of them, burn them like you would wood. They burn really well, about half an hour each, and make a lot of heat. Just my 2 bobs worth.
