Abstract
In the present study, a solid biofuel based on Olive Pomace Waste (OPW) is manufactured in order to estimate the energy for heating water. A mechanical hydraulic press is constructed in order to create the block of OPW biofuel. To proceed, the standard form is burned to heat water in a tank where a thermocouple is placed to estimate the heating energy created by OPW blocks. Then, the standard OPW blocks are compared experimentally with other mixed biofuel blocks such as, waste Beeswax, oak charcoal, dry olive leaf and waste wood sawdust. It is shown that the standard OPW blocks could increase the temperature of 3 Liters of water to 34 °C whereas with the modified OPW mixed with other constituents temperatures up to 65 °C can be reached.
