Solid Biofuel Production from Biomass: Technologies ..., MDPI
The present study summarizes the types of solid biofuel production technologies deployed in Nigeria as well as the biomass feedstock utilized in the production of fuel briquettes and pellets. While opportunities exist in the gasification of biomass in Nigeria, direct combustion is a readily applicable fuel conversion process that can be
Nigeria is a developing country with an insufficient supply of energy to meet the continuously growing demand. However, there are several biomass resources available within the country. This paper presents a desk review, which investigates the potential resources for biomass energy generation within the country. Energy policies to aid biomass use as an energy source within the country were
Coconut shell and husk biochar: A review of production
Previous studies indicated that the proximate characteristics of coconut shell and coconut husk biomass are different . Coconut shell biomass contains 6–10 wt% MC, 0–2 wt% ash, 72–77 wt% VM and 15–23 wt% FC, whereas coconut husk biomass contains 0–8 wt% MC, 1–5 wt% ash, 83–85 wt% VM and 15–16 wt% FC.
The complex elements in a thermochemical conversion process of biomass are Si, Na, Mg, Ca, Cl, and S [20], and they are considered as thermos-chemical processing systems. This shows that the coconut shell biomass will be good fuel for the thermochemical conversion process because it possesses complex elements in a small amount.
Production and utilization of fuel pellets from biomass: A
A typical fuel pellets production process consists of a series pre-processing steps depending on the initial biomass characteristics. The pre-processed biomass is then directed towards the pellet mill. Post pelletization, the pellets are conveyed to pellet cooler, then to screening and bagging equipment.
The massive use of coconut fruit has generated a large amount of excess coconut biomass especially the coconut husk, which generated more than 6 million tonnes residue per year [5].
Production of Biomass Briquettes Using Coconut Husk and Male
O. J. Lawal et al. [14] investigated combustion properties (percentage volatile matter, percentage ash content, percentage fixed carbon, heating value) of briquette produced from coconut husk
The massive use of coconut fruit has generated a large amount of excess coconut biomass especially the coconut husk, which generated more than 6 million tonnes residue per year . The proportion of husk in one coconut fruit is around 33–35% with a thickness of around 5 to 6 cm and is the thickest part of the coconut fruit [ 6 , 7 ].
Characterization of fuel briquettes made from a ..., Springer
2.1 Materials. Rice husk, a bio-residue from the processing of rice, was obtained from a rice mill in Adani, Enugu state, southeast Nigeria while the palm oil mill sludge (POMS) which is a bio-waste generated during the extraction of palm oil from palm fruits was obtained from an oil mill in Ekwulobia, Anambra state, southeast Nigeria.
The biomass materials, which are generated in the agricultural farm or field, are defined as field-based residues (e.g. rice straw, sugarcane tops, cocoa pods, tobacco stalks, soybean straw/pods, maize stalks, etc.), whereas those generated during the processing of agricultural products are called process-based residues (e.g. rice husk, bagasse
