Introduction
Rice straw is the game changer in the biomass industry, as it is one of the most abundant resources, its available at large quantities; such an organic source coming form agricultural and food industries waste can effectively be used to generate biofuel.
Rice straw is s renewable resource tat is low-cost and high with bio degradability, which make them a great source for biomass production.
through the recycling process of rice straws, huge amount of waste and potentiality for further pollution in the air are fixed properly.
How rice straw is turned to biomass
Through a process called Pyrolysis, rice straw is turned into a biofuel source, as it yields bio-oil, containing diverse compounds, including 15% Furans, 20% Phenols, 5% Acetic acid. Such outputs have applications ranging form energy generation to advanced material production.
Thermochemical conversion of rice straw
Due to rice straw’s relatively high Carbon and Hydrogen content; it contains a considerable amount of energy that makes it a suitable feedstock for thermal conversion, while on the other hand, it enables it to be a great solutions for heat and power.
