[…] Anaerobic digestion has proven to be a beneficial technology in various spheres for rural development. Biogas produced is a green replacement of unprocessed fuels (like fuel wood, dung cakes, crop residues). It is a cost effective replacement for dung cakes and conventional domestic fuels like LPG or kerosene. Biogas technology has the potential to meet the energy requirements in rural areas, and also counter the effects of reckless burning of biomass resources. […]

[…] Rice husk and bagasse are the biomass resources with the greatest economic potential, estimated at 50 MW and 150 MW respectively. Biomass fuels sources that can also be developed include forest wood, rubber wood, logging residues, saw mill residues, sugar cane residues, bagasse, coffee husk and coconut residues. […]

Greeting Mr. Petersen

I am an entrepreneur with flatten rice(Poha ) production.
I still need to know ways to use the waste like Paddy husk and Paddy straw.
I am looking if there is economical ways to process these also.
Currently i am throwing them away.

Coffee husk should be similar to rice husk. 1 ton/hour of coffee husk should produce around 1 MW electricity (small scale plant up to 3 MW electrical). For larger plants higher electrical efficiency can be achieved. See http://www.kem.dk and feel free to contact. We have references for power generation from various sources of biomass (rice husk, rice straw, wheat straw, olive husk, poultry/chicken litter, wood etc.).

Sir, before going into the subject of getting energy from straw, there are two main issues,
1. Economical ways to collect and distribute straw
2. Primary use as animal feed

please can you send me any contact address where I can get a mobile rice husk gasifier to be used for rice milling. We find it useful for farmers in the rural areas where there is no power connection.
thanks
