According to this article, agrowaste as a source of energy in India shows great potential. The process of briquetting is the physical transformation of loose raw material mostly made of agrowaste such as rice husks, bagasse and ground nutshells and other organic materials such as municipal solid waste into high density fuel briquettes through a compacting process. The resultant form change increases the calorific value (combustion efficiency) of the product as compared to loose material. This article analyses the issues connected with the production and use of briquettes and highlights the huge untapped potential of its possible widespread use.
