Bagasse : Properties, Production and Uses by Antone Farr
Requirements: .PDF reader, 8.2MB
Overview: Sugarcane bagasse is considered a by-product of the sugar-alcohol industries. However, in the last few decades, this biomass has been used mainly for energy generation. Considering the widespread uses of sugarcane bagasse, the authors begin with a focus on detailed information about the main producers of sugarcane and world availability for its plantation. Different approaches for extracting the cellulosic and hemicellulosic fractions are also described. Next, the impact of certain production variables on the yield and surface area of sugarcane bagasse derived activated carbon are investigated. The physicochemical properties of the produced activated carbon including pH, moisture content, fixed carbon, volatile matter and ash content are also investigated. Efforts aiming at the utilization of lignocellulosic materials as alternative sources of chemicals and energy have been increasing due to the concern about growth of CO2 emissions
