This paper presents the results of studies on the possibility of producing alternative briquetted solid fuel from beet pulp, which will contribute to the utilization of sugar production waste and the rational use of natural resources. To increase the shelf life of secondary raw materials and the possibility of further forming an alternative solid fuel, beet pulp was pre-dried by filtration drying. Using the calorimetric combustion method, the main parameters of the experimental material were investigated: moisture content, ash content and calorific value. It was determined that for unformed plant material, a calorific value is about 15900 kJ/kg, a moisture content is less than 1% wt., and an ash content is about 4.3 % wt. The obtained results showed the feasibility of further research on the creation of briquetted solid fuel samples from the dried beet pulp. It was found that the produced with the hydraulic press briquettes have the calorific value of about 16318 kJ/kg, the moisture content less than 1% wt., and the ash content about 4.8 % wt. The developed solid fuel briquettes from beet pulp are close in their parameters to the existing European standards for solid fuels. The results obtained indicate the prospects of using beet pulp as an alternative solid fuel, which will reduce dependence on traditional slowly renewable fuel resources and ensure additional use of large volumes of sugar industry waste, which will contribute to the rational use of secondary plant materials.
