Abstract
This article is based on the alternate solution of different global problems and the solutions related to solid waste management. The renewable fuels were produced by the pyrolysis of buffalo dung. After the removal of moisture content by drying under sunlight the pyrolytic process of dry buffalo dung was carried out in the self-designed pyrolytic reactor. The heat was supplied by natural gas combustion for four hours that resulted in the highly flammable syntheticgas, liquid fuels and biochar. The flame test and TLC examination of the liquid fuels showed that the fuels so obtained are aromatic in nature. The biochar so obtained from the pyrolysis of buffalo dung was used as biofertilizer by using the okra seeds as test experiment. The biochar showed the greater potential as a biofertilizer as compare to normalbuffalodung. Biowastes pyrolysis has been attracted much attention due to its high efficiency and availability across the globe. It also provides an opportunity for the management of municipal solid wastes into clean energy. The production of fuels from sustainable sources like pyrolysis of buffalo dung will reduce the fuel crisis and environmental pollution. In addition, this article will provide the mechanism for the management of solid waste by promoting the waste-to-zero waste technology through the production of useful products.
