Abstract

Abstract The biomass pellet used in this study was mostly composed of coffee peels, which were then blended with tapioca flour and molasses to create a cohesive material. Three distinct binder concentrations namely 10, 15%, and 20 were applied. Tapioca flour and molasses were added to the biomass pellets at different concentrations, which increased their density, ash content, and fixed carbon content while decreasing their moisture and volatile matter contents. It had the following characteristics namely 15.18% fixed carbon content and 610 kg/m3 biomass pellet density, a 0.008 kg/min fuel usage rate, a 3.03 percent ash content, an 81.79% volatile matter content, 8.03% moisture content, and 33.15% thermal efficiency. The design findings were computed using the stove’s dimensions, which were 26.5 cm in diameter and 37 cm in height. This distance, which totals 8 cm, may lessen the furnace and cause burning to produce heat.
