Bagasse
Bagasse is the fibrous residue left after milling sugarcane, valuable as energy biomass and a raw material for paper. Putting it to use is a tangible form of zero-waste processing, where every part of the sugarcane adds value.
- Biomass for boiler energy
- Raw material for pulp and paper
- A form of zero-waste processing
- Reduces the need for fossil energy
A biomass energy source
Bagasse is burned as boiler fuel to generate steam and electricity at the sugar mill. This use cuts the need for fossil energy and makes the mill more energy self-sufficient.
- Boiler fuel for steam generation
- Supports the mill's energy self-sufficiency
- Reduces emissions from fossil energy
Raw material for paper
Bagasse fiber can also be processed into pulp for paper production, adding value to every part of the sugarcane. This opens up opportunities for environmentally friendly derivative products.
