The research was to study the briquetting of lignite combined with biomass binders. The biomass binders were rice husk and sawdust treated with sodium hydroxide. The ratio of biomass binders and lignite was 50:50 wt./wt. Rice husk was treated with 3% wt/v sodium hydroxide at 80°C with a heating time...
