Techno-Economic Evaluation of Rice Husk Co-Firing as a Sustainable Biomass Fuel Alternative

ITEGAM-JETIA
Co-firing is a technology that blends coal with biomass at a specific ratio in steam power plants. In the Lontar area, which is surrounded by vast rice fields, there is significant potential to utilize rice husk waste as a biomass feedstock.

Evaluation of co-firing as a cost-effective short-term sustainable CO2 mitigation strategy in Germany

Energy, Sustainability and Society, 2019
Background In order to achieve the German greenhouse gas reduction targets, in particular, CO2 emissions of coal-fired power plants must be reduced. The co-incineration of biomass-based substitutes, here referred to as co-firing, is regarded as a highly ...

Engineering study of coal co-firing based on biomass mixture and slagging-fouling control in the steam power plant

South African Journal of Chemical Engineering
Coal combustion intensifies carbon emissions, contributing to global warming. This study explores co-firing coal with biomass sources—rice husks, sawdust, and cocopeat—and examines the role of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) in reducing slagging.
