Sugarcane processing generates large quantities of
bagasse
, a fibrous by-product. Instead of going to waste, bagasse can be
compressed into briquettes
, providing a
sustainable and cost-effective alternative to charcoal or firewood
. This not only creates a new revenue stream for sugar mills and agro-processors but also contributes to
clean energy solutions and environmental sustainability
, linking the sugar value chain directly to the renewable energy sector.
