Benefits of Briquettes
BENEFITS OF BRIQUETTES
Briquettes are cheaper - CV per rupee spent is more compared to coal or firewood.
This high-density biomass fuel extends burn time greatly.
100% natural; no chemical, glue, or binders used in the product.
Cost-effective, huge saving compared to FO, diesel, coal, gas, or fire-wood burning.
Environmentally friendly and POLLUTION-FREE fuel, using our renewable resources.
Clean burning – minimal smoke, creosote, and ash. Briquettes do not emit smoke with sulfur or phosphorus and also fly ash, hence no need for pollution control equipment.
Easy to handle and store.
Low ash content( below 10%) in comparison to coal ( 25 to 40%) resulting least boiler ash disposal problems
Uniformity in size, density, and moisture ensures predictable burning time
The high sulfur content of oil and coal, when burnt, pollutes the environment. There is no sulfur in briquettes
Biomass briquettes have a higher practical thermal value and much lower ash content(2-10% compared to 20-40% in coal).
Briquettes have consistent quality, have high burning efficiency are ideally sized for complete combustion
Combustion is more uniform compared to coal and boiler response to changes in steam requirements is faster due to the higher quantity of volatile matter in briquettes.
There will be no corrosion effect on boiler equipment resulting in negligible maintenance cost. Coal on the other hand produces Sulphur dioxide, which by mixing with moisture produces sulfuric acid and corrosive acid.
