Resumen
Descripción
It is clear from the Workshop that substantial progress has been made in briquetting technology and practices in recent years. Briquetting of biomass residues for fuel is an important option for substitution of wood and loose biomass residue fuels, under certain conditions. However, the option should be carefully evaluated and any implementation should be based on a thorough understanding of the requirements and constraints. During the workshop a variety of presentations was made dealing wi th resource availability, experiences with briquetting technologies, prospects for marketing the products, etc. Given the fact that large amounts of agro- and forestry residues remain unused in the region, it was recommended that efforts be made by various national and international organisations to promote the technology.
