IIMA Working Papers from Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, Research and Publication Department

Abstract: As resources diminish and needs increase, it has become important to utilize waste materials as fuel. This paper discusses some methodological issues on the biomass conversion into fuel. Biomass is an organic matter formed by plants, trees, agricultural crops, crop residues, and by-products of forestry and agricultural industries. Utilization of indigenously available biomass resources can reduce the production cost and alleviate the problems of disposal and pollution.
