Abstract

This study examined the utilization of residues from the production of hazelnuts as a source of biofuel. The residues were briquetted using a hydraulic briquetting machine with a horizontal course. Solid cylindrical briquettes were produced with two different compression pressures (P: 80 MPa and 160 MPa), moisture contents (M: 8%-10% and 13%-15%) and particle sizes (PS: 2-5 mm and 7-10 mm). Physical properties (bulk density, tumbler and shatter indexes, water absorption capacity, moisture and equivalent humidity contents) and thermal properties (gas emission values after combustion, ash content and calorific values) of the briquettes were measured. The study found an optimum briquetting pressure of 160 MPa, optimum moisture content of 8%-10%, and optimum particle size of 2-5 mm for hazelnut husk agricultural residues. The study gave promising results and proved that the idle residue potential in agriculture could be utilized for green energy.

Özet

Bu çalışmada, biyoyakıt kaynağı olarak fındık üretiminden kaynaklanan atıkların kullanımı incelenmiştir. Atıklar, yatay bir rotaya sahip bir hidrolik briketleme makinesi kullanılarak briketlenmiştir. Katı silindirik briketler iki farklı sıkıştırma basıncı (P: 80 MPa ve 160 MPa), nem içeriği (M:%8 -%10 ve %13 -%15) ve parçacık boyutları (PS: 2-5 mm ve 7-10 mm) ile üretildi. Briketlerin fiziksel özellikleri (kütle yoğunluğu, mekanik dayanıklılık ve kırılma indeksleri, su emme kapasitesi, nem ve eşdeğer nem içeriği) ve bazı ısısal özellikleri (yanma sonrası gaz emisyon değerleri, kül içeriği ve ısıl değerler) ölçüldü. Çalışma sonucunda fındık zurufu tarımsal atığı için en uygun briketleme basıncı 160 MPa, nem içeriği %8 -%10 ve parçacık boyutu 2-5 mm aralığında bulunmuştur. Çalışma umut verici sonuçlar vermiştir ve tarımdaki atıl atık potansiyelinin yeşil enerji için kullanılabileceğini kanıtlanmıştır.
