Peach Stone Shell
The closest equivalent to apricot kernel shell; a strong biomass fuel that gives dense embers and burns for a long time thanks to its high gross calorific value.

What Is Peach Stone Shell? & The Supply Process
Peach Kernel Shell is the thick, woody shell left over after the hard kernels of peaches processed in juice and concentrate factories are cracked and the oil/aroma-bearing core is removed; it is physically quite similar to apricot kernel shell.
Notably strong in hardness and thickness, this shell ranks among the top-tier fuels thanks to its high upper calorific value. Because it produces a deep bed of embers that stays alight for hours rather than an open flame during combustion, it is highly valued in industrial ovens and greenhouses that require long, steady heat.
Depending on stock availability, it can largely be substituted for or blended with apricot kernel shell. Akyel Kayısı sources peach shells from integrated fruit juice facilities and supplies them wholesale to industrial plants in natural cracked form.
Key Technical & Commercial Advantages
- Upper-range high calorific value (HHV) energy
- Dense embers that stay alight for hours with stable heat transfer
- Structure closely equivalent to apricot kernel shell
- Clean combustion properties with low ash and no sulphur
- Cracked grain structure suited to automatic stoker augers
- Thick, hard shell wall also suited to the natural abrasive / blasting media industry
Areas Of Use By Sector
Industrial Ovens & Greenhouses
Used in all solid-fuel systems seeking stable high temperature and long-lasting embers.
Carbonization & Charcoal
Thanks to its high density, it is carbonized into smokeless, high-calorie briquette charcoal.
Carbonization & Briquettes
Its dense structure allows it to be carbonized and used as a raw material in briquette and charcoal production.

Peach Stone Shell — Fuel Information and Supply
Hard shell fuels are sourced from contracted cracking facilities in naturally broken form and shipped on a tonnage basis; sieving, sizing, or hand selection is not applied in this group. You can review the fuel value and supply information below:
In hard shell fuels, size/calibre is secondary; what matters is calorific value, low ash, and low moisture. The common typical reference range in biomass literature is approximately 4,600–4,900 kcal/kg; it varies by lot, moisture, and source, and is not a value measured or guaranteed by our company.
Frequently Asked Questions About Peach Stone Shell
Do we need to change boiler settings when burning peach shell instead of apricot shell?
Generally, no setting changes are required. The combustion behavior, density and calorific range of the two products are quite close; minor adjustments may be needed depending on the boiler type.
