Tropical waste biomass potential for solid biofuels production
Original language description
Subsequent utilization of waste biomass in developing countries occurs at poor level, despite the fact, that it has great potential in solid biofuel production. Densified waste biomass is utilized for direct combustion, therefore, its suitability (energy potential, chemical composition) must be determined in attempt to protect environment and reduce air pollution. Main aim of present research was to determine suitability of waste biomass originating from production of rice (Oryza sativa), Date fruit (Phoenix dactylifera L.) and Jatropha fruit (Jatropha curcas) for solid biofuel production. Within a moisture, ash and volatile matter contents, major chemical elements (C, H, N, O) and net calorific value (NCV) were determined. Rice waste analysis proved low NCV (14,33 MJ/kg) and high ash content (20,74%), which presented problems during combustion. Jatropha fruit waste (cake) analyses exhibited outstanding NCV (24,44 MJ/kg) caused by residual oil content. Within major elements analysis a low c
