Application And Production Of Briquettes
We humans have been using all the different types of fuels since the very beginning to power all the different kinds of activities. In addition, in the modern world that we live in, the importance of fuels has become even greater than ever before. Today humans need fuel to run almost any activity. In such a world where there is so much need and importance of fuels, underrated and often forgotten briquettes can also play a huge part.
Renewable And Non-Renewable Fuels
However, before going into detail about briquettes, let us discuss a bit more about their advantages, and production in general. Fuels also come in two main forms. They are either renewable or non-renewable. In addition, most of the fuels that we use today are of non-renewable type. This has been a major topic of discussion, and people have now started looking for alternative solutions. This is because non-renewable fuels will finish if there are no reserves in nature.
These types of fuels can be re-generated and can be used extensively without having to worry about their stocks. Among various types of renewable energy, biomass has also stood out as one of the most effective and applicable solutions for solving the fuel-problem and crisis. Briquettes are one such type of biomass that can solve many global problems.
Why Briquettes?
Do not just think that the use of modern briquetting is only limited to industries and boiler plants. This type of biomass is more useful than one might actually know. In addition, in the case of developing countries like Nepal, this type of fuel can be even more useful and productive.
The primary use of briquettes can be for providing heat energy for cooking and heating. Therefore, they can be a very cheap and effective fueling option, especially in developing nations like ours. In addition, these have even played making several energy projects successful over the years. Other than just for cooking behaviors, it can also be used for all other household purposes also.
Above all, the briquette is a type of biomass that uses different types of residues. Therefore, they can be a very interesting alternative to use instead of traditional fuels. Also, they can not only be a good choice from a user’s perspective but also from a business point of view.
How Can Briquettes Be Used?
At first, the thing that people should realize is that they most probably will have to change their normal combustion devices in order to use a briquette. This might be the very point that will deter people from implementing this effective biomass. Potential consumers will start to think about if it is all worth the hassle. People will also start to think that will using biomass fuel like briquette be effective, economically beneficial, and sustainable if they will have to alter their entire fueling systems.
The thing that people need to understand is that briquette is not just fuel but also a consumer good. Yes, starting a briquetting fuel-based system might be difficult in the initial phase. However, one needs to understand that it will ultimately bear good results in the long run. This can also be a key lesson to the manufacturers. Briquettes should be made in a way that is as much compatible to the existing fuels as possible. If not, they might not even have any chance to penetrate the marketplace in the first place.
Use of Briquette
Domestic Use
Briquetting can play a vital part in helping your every fueling solution in housing applications. In households, briquettes are used for cooking, water heating, space, and other purposes. Therefore, we can see a growing number of users of this biomass in recent years. Most of the households in the remote area use these types of fuel rather than in urban areas.
Hospitality
Hospitality is a sector that can and has been using as well as reaping the benefits of briquetting techniques. By hospitality, we are not only talking about hotels and resorts. In addition, we can also see this kind of biomass in hospitals and health sectors. By burning briquettes, these sectors can achieve spacious heating, water heating, and also cooking in large amounts. Therefore, we can say that briquetting is an ideal and effective fuel alternative for the hospitality sector.
Ceramic Production And Textiles
The versatile briquetting technique can be used in many ways we may not even know. Producing ceramics is one of the ways in which we can benefit from briquetting. A lot of ceramic industries use efficient fueling techniques for making various products. Some products that use briquetting are tiles, brick kilns, pot firing, etc.
Similarly, textile industries have also heavily started to use briquettes for their various works. Textile makers are using briquette for all the different purposes like leaching and dying works.
Catering And Food Processing
Commercial catering businesses and food processing plants have been using briquettes very cleverly and effectively. They use this sustainable fuel for various tasks such as grilling, cooking heating, drying, distilleries, and many more. Since these industries usually deal with producing and making food in large amounts, briquetting only seems logical. By using this type of biomass, these businesses won’t just benefit economically but also helps indirectly in saving a lot of other traditional fuels that would have been used instead.
Industrial Boilers And Poultry
Briquettes release steam and high amounts of heat which is essential for various tasks in all the different types of industries. They also have an important role in the poultry sector during the incubation period.
Agriculture Industries And Gasification
Agricultural plants can also use briquettes, which are made from agricultural waste themselves. For example, briquetting is implemented for drying tea, curing tobacco, tobacco mining, etc. Industrial sectors have also used it for fueling the gasifiers to generate electric power. Briquettes seem to be a much more effective option for this than other fuels like charcoal and firewood.
SB Group also distributes the finest briquettes in Nepal. So, if you want to implement sustainable fueling methods and benefit economically and environmentally, feel free to contact us.
