PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for supplying granules which can supply fibrous granules such as finely crushed biomass uniformly and continuously to a destination such as a gas-firing furnace. SOLUTION: The crushed biomass as the fibrous granules housed in a cylindrical hopper 12 is supplied to a screw feeder 13 by being agitated with an agitator 14. The diameter of the tip part of the feeder 13 is decreased gradually, the tip is connected to a conveyance conduit 15 of a small diameter, gas is ejected from the tip part to the compacted biomass conveyed with the screw feeder 13 to release the particles of the biomass from compactness and entanglement, and the disintegrated biomass is conveyed/supplied to the destination such as the gas-firing furnace through a conveyance conduit 15 by a conveying current of the gas. |
