- Abstract
The main objective of the present work is to study direct combustion system used to heat a molasses processing units from the following points: environmental nature of traditional raw bagasse as a solid fuel. A case study on three different private processing factories in El Minia Governorate upper Egypt (El Roda and Dear Mawas village) in Malawy City, CO emmitted from the first, second and third factories were 4.5, 8.9 and 24 times that of the acceptable range stated by the Egyptian environmental rules (2016). Some bagasse producers used raw bagasse of moisture content ranged between 12 to 35 % wet basis. Higher moisture contents of bagasse fuel affect on the combustion efficiency in molasse processing units.
