Some Thermal Properties of Banana (Musa acuminata) Peels Bonded Waterlily (Nymphaea lotus Linn.) Briquettes
Abstract: The purpose of the study was to determine how the amount of binder affected the ignition time and rate of burning of fuel briquettes made from a blend of banana (Musa acuminata) and waterlily (Nymphaea lotus Linn.) peels at varying binder ratios (0, 20, 40, 60, and 80% by weight of each feedstock). Before the briquettes were expelled for additional research, the homogenous feedstock was compressed by a hydraulic press …

Effect of Compression Pressure on the Strength and Fuel Properties of Maize Cob Briquettes
Abstract: Biomass can be densified under a high compression pressure or a low compression pressure. The type of raw material, moisture level, particle size, and form typically all influence how much pressure should be used. This study utilized maize cobs and waste paper pulp to produce briquettes which are seen as alternative fuels. The goal was to determine how compression pressure affected the strength and fuel characteristics of the briquettes that …

Algae-in-oil microbe to generate fuel efficiency
Abstract: AbstractAlgae can be converted into biodiesel, bioethanol, bio butanol, bio hydrogen, bio-jet fuel,green gasoline,bio oil and bio methane through bio-chemical and thermo chemical methods from algal biomass.Microbes grow in high quantities within a short period in dirty water, salt water and any unsuitable environments, lying wastages from power plants, and CO2 rich zones without affecting from changing climates. Nano-particle blend accessed higher combustion of bio-fuel. Waxy lipid of micro-algae made …

Treatment of Leachate by Using Solid Waste
Abstract: Abstract Leachate, a hazardous liquid from landfill decomposition, is a significant environmental challenge worldwide. Traditional collection of solid waste: Gather the solid waste material you want to generate leachate from. This waste could include organic matter, plastics, paper, and other materials commonly found in municipal solid waste. Sorting and compressing: Depending on the initial state of the waste, you may need to shred or crush it to increase the surface …

Structural Efficiency and Sustainability of Bamboo Architecture: Material Performance, Joinery Techniques and Contemporary Applications
Abstract: Abstract Bamboo is increasingly recognised as a structurally efficient and environmentally responsible construction material, offering a viable alternative to conventional high-carbon materials such as steel, concrete, and engineered timber. Its rapid renewability, high tensile strength, low embodied energy, and favourable strength-to-weight ratio position bamboo as a key material for sustainable architecture in both vernacular and contemporary contexts. This paper presents a comprehensive assessment of bamboo architecture by examining material performance, …
