Studies on the Fuel Characteristics of Empty Fruit and Seed of Sterculia Foetida Abstract: Biomass characterization is the primary step to make use them as feedstock in energy conversion technologies. The empty fruits and seeds of Sterculia foetida tree drop down as waste. Hence, these samples were characterized for proximate content, elemental composition, heating value, thermal behavior and functional groups. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the […]
