In recent years, the need for clean, viable and sustainable source of alternative fuel is on the
rampage in the global space due to the challenges posed by human factors including fossil …

Today, agricultural waste is one of the most common resources in Nigeria that could solve
environmental, fuel and energy issues. However, it has some limitations such as low bulk …

The torrefaction of lignocellulose biomass was conducted to produce biochar with properties
compatible with coal. Two lignocellulose biomasses, pearl millet (PM) and walnut shell …

The objective of the study was to examine the influence of moisture content on the
mechanical properties of solid biomass, which is important for storage and handling …

Empty fruit bunches (EFBs) in the current bulky form are low in energy density and highly
moist making them an unattractive option as a solid fuel for producing steam and electricity …

Briquetted biomass, like sugarcane bagasse, a by-product of sugar mills, is a renewable
energy source. This study aimed at the production and characterization of bagasse …

Biochar is a carbon-neutral solid fuel and has emerged as a potential candidate to replace
coal. Meanwhile, spent coffee grounds (SCGs) are an abundant and promising biomass …

The conversion of biomass to high-density briquettes is a potential solution to solid waste
problems as well as to a high dependence on fuel wood in develo** countries. In this …

Growing concerns of emissions from wildfires and burning of crop residues demand cleaner
and efficient technologies to convert and utilize this residual biomass. The present study …

This study was carried out to evaluate the physico‐mechanical and combustion indices of
briquettes made from blends of cornhusk (CH) and cassava peel (CP). The CH and CP was …
