  • Patent number: 4036359
    Abstract: A wood chip product and a process for baling wood chips in which sufficient compressive pressure is applied to a quantity of wood chips to substantially reduce its volume, and force the water liquid from the chips to create, without any binder, an adhered but separable compact mass of chips. The mass is enclosed in a flexible web cover, retained by spaced, circumferential ties which extend in the direction of compression. The chips are thus reduced to from one-half to one-sixth of their bulk or volume and have lost from about 15% to about 40% of their weight.
