FEATURES & BENEFITS OF “Ramit Bio Coal” GROUNDNUT SHELL BRIQUETTES

SALIENT FEATURES

		Easy to burn - lower ignition temperature compared to coal.
		Smokeless burning and sustained combustion and the temperature requirement is achieved due to very efficient combustion.
		Leaves only white ash without any fixed carbon.
		Full heat value is utilized.
		Easy to handle and 1000 kgs of briquettes per cubic meter can be stored and transported against 50 kgs of agro-waste.
		No pollution to the environment and no toxic gas and sulphur emission and even no odour.
		Very low ash content as low as 2 to 5% compared to 30 to 49% in coal.
		No binder is used.
		The natural polymer lignin acts as a binder and provides mechanical support and also provides resistance to decay and repels water.
		Very well suited to gasifier which can run any engine because of the combustion efficiency and solid form.
		In gasifiers the briquettes can be used and the partially pyrolysed briquettes can be again used as a substitute for high value added charcoal for domestic and industrial use leaving the fuel wood unutilized and thus avoiding deforestation.
		A typical usage of briquettes made out of paper mill sludge mixed with iron sludge power is made in big furnaces to keep the temperature alive for easy start up.

SOCIAL BENEFITS

		"A TREE SAVED IS MORE THAN A TREE GROWN".
		The above Bio-Message is very clear. We need not spend more energy and money to grow more trees if we could avoid using them.
		Thus, all ecological disaster arising from deforestation can be checked.
		Saves the environment from pollution, all conventional fuel pollutes the atmosphere.
		Avoids using conventional resources like coal which means that future generation will not be deprived of its utility.
		Money spent on forestation programmes can be minimized or more land can be forestated.
		Due to efficient utilization of agro-waste, agriculturists will receive some income from their agro-waste, will make their farming more remunerative and attractive and thereby their standard of living will be improved.
