Abstract:

Agricultural residue constitutes an integral part of the larger discussion about the environmental costs of development, covering a range of concerns from green energy to waste management. Research into the potential uses of agricultural waste is aimed at solving two problems at once, namely, waste disposal and the need to create useful products from waste materials. As agricultural turnover increases with each passing year, so does the volume of agricultural residue, and so does the need to extract clean energy from biomass that would otherwise go to waste. The government of India is taking initiatives to promote the use of biomass both in the fields of energy and composite material production. From issuing low-interest loans to providing back-end subsidies, everything is being done at the moment to promote and empower clean-energy startups that aim to contribute to the process of utilizing agro-waste for real, tangible profit, both in environmental and monetary terms. The objective of our research has been to accelerate that process by exploring new and innovative solutions.
