Problem Statement

Growing concerns over the environmental impact of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the uncertainty of future fossil fuel prices, geopolitical instability, and consumer preferences are a few factors driving the development and use of biomass as a renewable energy source. Government mandates and policy frameworks have further built consensus for the effective utilization of sustainable resources for energy. As a result, biomass-derived densified solid biofuels have experienced phenomenal growth in the last decade and are expected to grow by 56% during the three decades from 2010 to 2040. Biomass sources range from agricultural, municipal, and commercial wastes to forest litter and energy crops. The use of densified agricultural residues for energy production can reduce dependence on fossil fuels and help mitigate the environmental and economic security threats that they pose in an uncertain geopolitical scenario. As with most energy production, attention must be given to choosing the correct feedstocks and processes in each case to assure economic viability. Densified biomass products can be used effectively in residential or commercial heating, in energy production, or to produce a wide variety of chemicals or fuels. The North American, European, and Asian markets for densified biomass products are growing and have substantial remaining potential.

Problem Statement

Pakistan is an agrarian country with huge biomass resource which is not used efficiently and causes pollution in the form of rice straw burning in Punjab leading to smog, smoke, and toxic particulate matter air pollution while at the same time 30% of its population still lack access to electricity and a vast majority of the country faces natural gas (Sui gas) load shedding in winter for domestic and industrial uses and forces the country to import fuel in the form of LPG, LNG, furnace oil, and crude oil. While on the other hand, the productivity of smallholder farms is low due to poor soil and limited profitability, low-paid jobs, and in-efficient resources. All these problems can be addressed by using our advanced thermochemical conversion technology which converts biomass and other mixed waste into electricity, heat, and biochar. Biochar is recognized by the united nations (IPCC) as a carbon sequestration tool while it also enhances the soil carbon matter to increase soil productivity.
