Walnut tree (Carya illinoensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch) is a plant species showing ecological, social, and economic importance in México. The objective was to determine biomass productivity characterize the raw material briquettes obtained from walnut thinning pruning. variables evaluated were total height (TH), fresh (FB) dry (DB) per hectare (kg ha−1). Briquettes made by using both orchards. Labor...

Abstract The depletion of solid fuels in the world triggers requirement for existence an alternative fuel product as a substitute. In several studies, briquettes have become one alternatives used to deal with this problem. However, selection briquette material that considers its impact on economic, social, and environmental aspects has not been widely carried out. To solve problem, raw material...

Large quantities of bagasse are regularly accumulated on open spaces around sugar factory thereby endangering fragile ecosystem. The cane carbonization process can be put into effect as an environmentally friendly, energy self-providing continuous flow technology. Therefore, the objective this study was to use for production high caloric value briquette safeguard environment from pollution. Bag...

The effect of storage time on some properties of groundnut shell briquette with 5, 10, 15 and 20% binder (cassava gel) was studied. The briquettes were prepared using a motorized briquetting machine. The moisture content, durability rating, water penetration, calorific value and the ash content were determined after every 30 days for 6 months. The results reveals that the moisture content of br...
