Effect of water leaching pretreatment on the physical and combustion properties of sugarcane residues briquettes

Biomass briquettes improve handling, storage, and energy density, yet sugar cane residue briquettes suffer from high mineral content that drives ash deposition, slagging, corrosion, and equipment wear. This study evaluates water-leaching pretreatment followed by briquetting with...
