Physicochemical Characteristics of Biofuel Briquettes Made from Pecan (<i>Carya illinoensis</i>) Pericarp Wastes of Different Particle Sizes

Pecan nut (<i>Carya illinoensis</i>) pericarp is usually considered as a waste, with no or low value applications. Its potential as a densified solid biofuel has been evaluated, searching for alternatives to generating quality renewable energy and reducing polluting emissions in the atmo...
