Biomass
briquette plant has
become vital for the production of the clean and green energy from
the renewable sources. The increased prices of the fossils and need
to reduce greenhouse gases have increased its demand. Also, solid
biomass is quickly available, has low cost, and easy sustainability.
Beside this, agro or forest biomass is usually hard to handle because
it’s too heavy, pose legal & administrative issues, generates a
large amount of smoke, and has low thermal efficiency. Thus to attain
maximum efficiency of these resources, it is essential to compress
them into compact and manageable blocks that possess high thermal
combustion. This process is known as briquetting or
pelletization.
In
the case of biomass briquetting, huge pressure is applied to a mass
of waste particles without any binder to convert them into a compact
aggregate. This process works quite well for a broad range of feed-stocks because they are homogeneous and possesses moisture below
15 percent. Briquetting enhances the features of the biomass by
densification. Densification means less volume is required for the
similar energy output.
What
are Biomass Briquettes?
Biomass
briquettes are the high-density bio-fuels made from densified biomass
like coffee husks, groundnut shells, coir dust, rice husks, sawdust,
furniture waste, etc. via the use of the briquettingpress. This energy
source is carbon neutral and poses less effect on the environment.
These smokeless briquettes are more hygienic to the rural people
mainly for the ladies that are always trying hard to find sufficient
fuel supplies.
Densification
of Biomass Leads to:
- High volumetric energy density
- Less dust production when handling
- The low water content in the fuel
- High storage stability (less biodegradation)
- Higher homogeneity of the fuel
Benefits
of Briquetted Fuel from Agro Wastes:
- Alternative sustainable energy
- A useful tool that helps to fight against climate change
- Less pollution
- High calorific value
- Minimal handling of bio-fuel
- Reduced storage and transportation costs
- Low dust levels
- Improved overall biomass quality, durability, and stability
- High heating values
- Reduced deforestation by providing a substitute of wood
