Abstract The increased valorization of renewable and cost-effective lignocellulosic feedstocks represents a viable, sustainable, and eco-friendly approach toward the production of biopellets as alternative energy sources. The aim of this research work was to investigate and evaluate the feasibility of using various lignocellulosic raw materials, i.e., raru (Cotylelobium melanoxylon), mangrove (Rhizophora spp.), sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria), kemenyan toba (Styrax sumatrana), oil palm (Elaeis guineensis), manau rattan (Calamus manan), and belangke bamboo (Gigantochloa pruriens) for manufacturing biopellets with different particle sizes. The raw materials used were tested for their moisture content, specific gravity, ash, cellulose, and lignin content. In addition, thermal analyses, i.e., calorific values,… More >
