Bio-Briquettes From Processed Cashew Nut Shell Waste
2023Cashew nut shells (CNS) are the primary waste produced during the processing of cashew nuts and need constant attention to handle or valorize these wastes effectively. As a result, these CNS wastes are processed into solid briquettes citing their significant calorific content, thus making them a promising renewable biofuel for combustion-based ...

“Proximate composition and mineral concentration of Cashew nut(Anarcadiumoccidentale) were investigated using standard analytical methods. Thephysicochemical characteristics of cashew nut shell liquid were also determined. The proximatecomposition (%) was as follows: moisture (7.2), ash (2.8), crude fat (49.1), crude protein (36.3),crude fibre (3.2 ...

Cashew Nut Shell Oil for Hyposensitization Against Rhus Dermatitis
Archives of Dermatology, 1958The requirements for hyposensitizing Rhus-sensitive persons with specific allergens have been given in a previous paper. 1 The present study demonstrates that cashew nut shell oil may be used for this purpose. This material is cheap, easily obtained, stable, and of fairly constant composition.

Hemp fibre reinforced cashew nut shell liquid composites
Composites Science and Technology, 2003Hemp fibre bundles were alkalised at concentrations between 0.8 and 8% NaOH and the change in surface morphology was elucidated using scanning electron microscopy. Fibres were tested in tension and the 4 and 6% NaOH treatment resulted in the highest Young's modulus and tensile strength of 65 GPa and 1064 MPa respectively.

Design and development of cashew nut shelling machine
Journal of Engineering, Design and Technology, 2010PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the physical and mechanical characteristics of the roasted cashew nut during fracture, by subjecting the nut to varying impact load tests at different orientations to ascertain the critical impact load that fractures the shell without damaging the kernel within.

The extraction of natural cashew nut‐shell liquid from the cashew nut (Anacardium occidentale)
Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1989AbstractIn the two‐stage recovery of natural cashew nut‐shell liquid (CNSL) by solvent extraction, the overall yields from half‐shells obtained by mechanical cutting and from chilled fragmented shells (to solidify the phenols) by manual processing are identical, indicating that no physical loss of phenolic material occurs in the mechanical process.

Pyrolysis of cashew nut shells-focus on extractives
Journal of Analytical and Applied PyrolysisCashew nut shells (CNS), as non-edible agricultural residues produced by cashew nut shelling units, are largely abundant in West Africa. They present a strong potential for energy production although the presence of specific extractives known collectively as cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is problematic.

Production of Solid Biofuel from Cashew Nut Shell
In the face of global climate change and the lingering concerns over scarce fossil fuel supplies, the need for renewable and sustainable energy alternative is now an urgent priority. This research paper looks at production of solid biofuel or briquettes from cashew nutshells which can be used domestically.Nofisat, A., Sule, J.T.
