Industrial boilers are the backbone of many industries, powering everything from utility operations to power generation. However, these essential units often have significant drawbacks—they consume large amounts of fuel, require high maintenance, and generate considerable carbon emissions. Traditionally, most industrial…
Industrial boilers are essential for running various production processes efficiently. Traditionally, these boilers have relied fossil fuels, but maintaining these systems has become increasingly costly as fuel prices continue to surge. For example, India’s average price for 1 litre of…
Bioenergy, derived from biomass, presents a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. Biomass fuels are manufacture from renewable sources like plants and waste and offer an eco-friendly solution to our growing energy needs. However, one crucial question remains: Is biomass truly…
India’s energy sector is undergoing a significant transformation, strongly emphasizing renewable energy sources. Uttar Pradesh, under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, has emerged as a frontrunner in promoting biofuel production. The state government is actively working on a…
Biomass fuel, widely used by around 52% of the global population, including 78% of Indians, is a common energy source for heating and cooking. Despite its renewable nature, burning biomass can release pollutants like Particulate Matter (PM), Carbon Dioxide (CO2),…
India and Brazil are leading the global cashew export market, with a combined 91% share. Despite the profitability of cashew nuts, a significant portion of the cashew—the shell—remains underutilized, often considered waste in the processing industry. This blog delves into…
Ash content is a critical parameter to consider when evaluating biomass fuel quality. It represents the measure of non-combustible materials present in the fuel and significantly impacts the performance and longevity of combustion equipment. Understanding the ash content in biomass…
CAQM has officially permitted using biomass fuels as an alternative to piped natural gas (PNG) in the National Capital Region (NCR). This decision is part of the CAQM’s ongoing measures to improve air quality by reducing reliance on more polluting…
After Vietnam and Nigeria, India ranks globally as the third-largest producer and processor of cashew shells. These cashews compose of 32.5% nuts and 67.5% shells. The shell undergoes processing to extract cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) and the residue, known…
