Experimental Comparison of Three Moroccan Biomass Combustion

This project aims to valorize and maximize the use of Moroccan solid biomass for forest and agricultural waste. To this end, three samples of cork, olive cake, and Argan nut shell are collected from Moroccan cities, pretreated, and measured. The HHV, ultimate analysis, proximate analysis, and density are determined for each biomass in order to identify its physicochemical properties. The experimental results demonstrate that cork is the best biomass for combustion because it generates high temperatures and less pollutant emissions.
