Open field rice straw burning causes air pollution, GHGs emission (7300 kg CO 2-equivalent
per hectare), soil nutrient and biodiversity losses and human health hazards. Huge amount …

Rice is a conventional crop that is produced majorly in the South and the South-East regions
of Asia, leading to the generation of a considerable amount of biomass (Rice Straw) in the …

Pellets for industrial use were produced from blends of pine sawdust (PIN) and alternative
residual biomasses in a pilot-scale pelletizer. The effect of the pelletization temperature (T …

Biomass raw materials are widely regarded as a significant source of renewable energy,
which significantly reduces the dependence on traditional fossil fuels, especially in the case …

Coffee production in Brazil creates significant amounts of residues. The goals of this study
are to evaluate the characteristics of these residues (parchment, husk, pulp, spent grounds …

Pelletization of garden waste, without additional binder, was investigated to produce high
quality fuel pellets for energy utilization. The influence of pelletization parameters viz …

Fossil fuels such as coal are likely to be exhausted in near future, research therefore is
focussed on exploration of alternatives. Biomass pellet is one such option and in this work …

The optimization of a “coal-like” pelletization technique based on the sustainable biomass
fuel of hydrothermal carbonization of wheat straw was investigated. Wheat straw was …

Searching and exploring for new biomass sources is essential for biofuels production.
Furfural residue pellets (FRPs), sawdust pellets (SPs), corn stalk pellets (CSPs) and sewage …
