Containerised Wood Waste Fired Heat Plant
$0.00
On-Site Sustainable Heat Generation
The Containerised Wood Waste Fired Heat Plant from Airtight Solutions is a fully packaged biomass heat generation system that burns onsite wood waste (e.g., MDF offcuts and timber residues) to produce hot water or process heat — turning waste into usable energy while significantly cutting landfill and disposal costs. This rugged, containerised unit offers a compact, turnkey solution for sawmills, timber processors and waste management facilities seeking efficient, cost-effective thermal energy from renewable wood fuel.

Description
Turn Wood Waste into Usable Heat
Airtight Heat Plants convert wood waste into hot water that can be used for timber drying, space heating or other process heating applications. When hot water is not required, integrated cooling radiators safely dissipate excess heat, allowing the system to continue operating without interruption.
Independent Waste Disposal
By burning waste material on site, Airtight Heat Plants provide a reliable, self-sufficient waste disposal solution. This reduces landfill reliance and disposal costs while recovering energy from materials that would otherwise be wasted.
Proven & Reliable Technology
The heat plant is based on a solid-fuel firing design that has been used globally for over 40 years. Airtight’s wood waste configuration has been successfully operating in Australian applications for more than 12 years, delivering dependable long-term performance.
Clean, Controlled Combustion
An under-fired stoker system, combined with independently controlled under-fire and over-fire airflows, allows precise control of the combustion process. This ensures efficient fuel use and a consistently clean burn.
Fully Containerised Package
Each heat plant is supplied as a complete, factory-assembled system housed in a 6-metre high-cube container. The package includes the heat plant, grit arrestor, fuel surge bin, control panel, hot water pump and cooling radiators — ready for installation on site.
Australian Made & Supported
Built locally and compliant with Australian regulations, Airtight Heat Plants are backed by reliable local service and support, giving you confidence in ongoing performance and compliance.
