CARBOCOPA - Study of the feasibility of carbonizing coconut and palm waste in a pyrolysis oven in Burkina-Faso
Partners
Main goals
PMCI mobilized Nitidæ to conduct pyrolysis tests on biomass from the processing of two agricultural products: palm and coconut.
Specific objectives
SO1. On its bioenergy experimental platform in Bobo-Dioulasso, Nitidæ will carry out carbonization tests in its two pyrolysis ovens.
SO2. The tests will make it possible to obtain data in particular the yields obtained according to the duration and temperature parameters.
SO3. The results of the tests will make it possible to assess the interest in setting up a carbonization unit for the production of biochar.
Profils de la température de sortie de la chaleur du post-combustion dans le temps des différentes biomasses: palme, coco et cajou
