Bagasse and bagasse fly ash represent significant opportunities for enhancing both renewable energy and construction sustainability. Experimental studies show that bagasse is a valuable biofuel with a heating value of approximately , though its high moisture content (45–55%) often necessitates preliminary drying to ensure stable and efficient combustion . Meanwhile, bagasse fly ash (SCBA) is increasingly researched as a sustainable replacement for cement, capable of improving concrete's compressive strength and durability when used at optimal levels (typically around 10% ). 1. Bagasse as a Sustainable Fuel Source

Sugar mills often use bagasse—the fibrous residue from crushed sugarcane—as a primary fuel for cogeneration , generating enough heat and electricity to power operations with surplus energy sold to the grid. An experimental study of bagasse and bagasse fu...
