Overview

Randomized trial evaluates energy yields from pyrolysis of coffee husks, indicating potential for sustainable energy production.

Key Points

  • The aim is to assess the rapid pyrolysis of coffee husks as an alternative energy source and its economic viability.
  • Simulated pyrolysis process using Aspen Plus software
  • Evaluated energy efficiency and economic feasibility based on yield metrics
  • Bio-oil yield of 60.8% and biogas yield of 24.0% indicate significant potential for industrial production
  • Identified high initial investment costs primarily due to equipment and operational expenses
  • Improvements needed in drying and thermolysis processes to enhance efficiency and reduce costs
