Rice Husk Briquettes are high-performance solid biofuel made by compressing ground rice husk into dense 90mm cylindrical logs, without any chemical additives. With a calorific value of 3950 kcal/kg, low moisture (5%), and minimal ash content, these briquettes are engineered for industrial boilers, offering a reliable, renewable, and cost-effective alternative to fossil fuels. Priced at Rs 13/kg, they are ideal for industries looking to lower emissions and fuel costs while maintaining thermal efficiency.

Q1. What makes rice husk briquettes better than loose husk or coal?
A1. Briquettes are denser, burn longer, produce more heat, and generate less ash than loose husk or traditional coal.
Q2. Are these briquettes compatible with all boiler types?
A2. They are compatible with most solid fuel boilers and can replace coal, firewood, or other biomass fuels without major modifications.
Q3. What is the typical storage life of rice husk briquettes?
A3. If stored in a dry, covered area, they can last for over 12 months without losing efficiency.
Q4. Do they produce harmful emissions?
A4. No. Rice husk briquettes are clean-burning and produce significantly fewer pollutants than fossil fuels.
Q5. Is any ash handling system required?
A5. Yes, as with any solid biomass fuel, a basic ash collection system is needed. However, the ash content is low and manageable.
Q6. Can these briquettes be used in small-scale setups?
A6. The 90mm size is optimized for industrial-scale use. For smaller applications, pellet forms may be more suitable.
