Another great material derived straight from nature is
bagasse.
Bagasse is a byproduct of sugar canes, and can be used to make very tough and strong food packaging and compostable food containers.
This study aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility of briquettes produced by residues from urban pruning, sugarcane processing (
bagasse), and a mix of both in different percentages.
Similarly, a total of 1,334.49 GWh was generated with hydel source while 1,563.13GWh with coal, 930.78 GWh with RFO, 1,679.26 GWh with gas, 960.54 GWh with RLNG, 896.59 GWh with nuclear, 36.11 GWh with Iranian import, 23.76GWh with mixed sources, 170.66 GWH with wind, 70.39 GWh with
bagasse and 52.93 GWh with solar source of electricity generation.
Six (06) solar projects of 430 MW cumulative capacity are operational while Six (06) sugar mill based
bagasse co-generation projects of 201.1 MW capacity are also operational.
He informed that when he asked Rehman, he (Rehman told that he has bought a trolley of sugarcane waste
Bagasse from Hamza Sugar Mills worth Rs23,000.
Bagasse is a 100-percent biodegradable organic material made from sugarcane stalk after juice is extracted.
The IRCTC will now use
bagasse -- the fibrous remains after extracting sugarcane juice -- to make disposable cutlery and containers, in which meals will be served.
'In this lean period,
bagasse can be a reasonable alternative source of energy,' he said.
One of the main sugarcane processing agroindustrial waste is sugarcane
bagasse, resulting from the crushing of sugarcane during extraction or direct transformation of alcohol [6].
Another problem is
bagasse, the fibrous matter left after crushing the sugarcane to extract the juice.
Sugarcane processing leaves as a residue
bagasse with a water content of approx.
The objective of this study was to determine the influence of urea and whole soybean meal or calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] treatment on sugarcane
bagasse nutritive values and in vitro fermentation.
In spite of that some kinds of residues have been employed for thermal energy or electricity generation--such as rice husk studied by Behainne and Martinez (2014) or sugarcane
bagasse reported by Hofsetz and Silva (2012)--fuel pellets have some advantages in comparison with unprocessed biomass.
Natural fibers for example jute, sisal,
bagasse, pineapple, abaca and coir [6-7] have been studied as reinforcement and filler in composites.
