RICE HUSK/WOODEN WASTE TO BRIQUETTE
[EIRI/EDPR/4627] J.C.: 2844XL
Briquetting is the technology to convert all types of agricultural and forestry waste into solid fuel. Briquettes are formed in cylindrical logs using high mechanical pressure without the use of chemical or binder. The product is a replacement to conventional fossil fuels and can be used across various manufacturing industries such as boilers, furnaces and kilns. Bio-Briquette is an eco friendly solid biofuel which helps to reduce pollution, contributing to greener environment and save worthy foreign exchange. Briquetting works on the basic concept of “Wealth from Waste”. The briquettes are used for energy generation helping farmers to earn money from the waste. Briquetting of residues takes place with the application of pressure, heat and on the loose materials to produce the briquettes. No addition of any binder / chemicals is required so it is 100% natural.
Fuel is the primary need for any country that whose backbone lies in the Industrial sector. More and more exhaustible sources of energy are diminishing each day. As a result, there is an immediate need to adopt new sources of energy which can help sustain the economic growth without any negative repercussions.
All the biomass and wood wastes are collected in large storage units and are recycled to produce solid fuel that can be used to heat industrial boilers. This is a renewable source of energy and is perfect in countries that produce tones of agriculture and forest waste each year. Every year millions of tons of agricultural waste are generated. These are either non-used or burnt inefficiently in their loose form causing air pollution. Handling and transportation of these materials is difficult due to their low bulk density. These wastes can provide a renewable source of energy by converting into high-density fuel briquettes without addition of any binder.
