Overview
What is biomass briquette testing?
Chem-Tech® provides advanced test services for Biomass fuels. Biomass fuels are gaining increased public and scientific attention, driven by factors such as oil price spikes, need for increased energy security, and concern over greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels. Biomass fuels, also known as non-conventional or solid fuels, are any materials or substances that can be used as fuels, other than conventional fuels. New technologies and advancements in this field has enabled industries adapt to newer biodegradable and conservative fuels. Alternate fuels are mainly biodegradable substance with good calorific value and which are more greener and eco-friendly than conventional fossil and petroleum fuels. Alternate fuels include substances which and produce large amount of energy on burning .These fuels produce less harmful emission gases.

Technical review
Common condition and contamination concerns
Moisture and ash
Moisture and ash influence the usable fuel fraction and are reviewed as part of the agreed solid-fuel scope.
Volatile matter and fixed carbon
Proximate-analysis results support characterisation of the fuel and its combustion behaviour.
Calorific value
Gross or net calorific value is selected according to the reporting requirement and applicable method.
Sulphur and composition
Sulphur and other composition parameters are included where required by the customer or specification.
Before dispatch
Sample-submission guidance
- Use a clean, secure and appropriately labelled container.
- Provide the sample identity, fluid grade and equipment or system details where applicable.
- Share operating hours, maintenance history, the suspected problem and required specification where available.
- Contact Chem-Tech before dispatch so the laboratory can confirm the sample quantity, container and selected testing scope.
Technical output
Reporting and interpretation
The report records results and methods for the agreed scope. Customer-supplied limits or specifications can be considered when provided before testing.
Results should be reviewed with equipment history, operating conditions and previous data; a laboratory result alone does not guarantee a root-cause diagnosis or remaining service life.
