Sustainable Energy from Agricultural Waste: Introducing Gracela Ventures Briquettes
Grace Nalugwa – Founder of Gracela Ventures
The Smart Alternative to Fossil Fuels
In Today’s fuel reservation and consumption pattern, every country wants to preserve their fossil fuel such as oil, natural gas, coal & wood. Tons of agricultural wastes are generated every year, which are neither destroyed nor burnt efficiently in loose form causing air pollution. These wastes can be recycled & can provide a renewable source of energy by converting biomass waste into high density – fuel briquettes with addition binder. Briquette is not only a good fuel but is also good for nature, as it only emits that mush of CO2 which is required by the environment for Plants & trees. Beside Energy, various governments offer huge incentives and promotional tax benefits to install Briquette Press & Machines.
With an increasing demand of energy producing source, briquette is used principally in the form of fire wood and charcoal. Currently, biomass provides 90% of Uganda consumed energy source as firewood and charcoal. Although Uganda is an Agricultural country with vast amounts of forests and trees, at the present time, the majority of its agriculture wastes are not being fully utilized for production of energy.
Our decision to transform Uganda’s natural agricultural wastes into charcoal briquettes have been lagging behind leading to severely exploitation of Uganda’s natural forests, yet there are quite a of innovations that can preserve the environment, at the same time producing cleansed fuel utilizable in home, schools, restaurants and hotels.
