A study was made to investigate the property of organic waste briquettes to utilize them as a fire source in household and industrial purposes. Various organic waste from local area were collected and then compressed under varying pressure condition in a chamber to enhance the burning capabilities and allowed to dry out. In order to achieve the compacting pressure, a compressing machine was fabricated. Various compositions were selected from raw materials based on their weight fraction. Maximum contribution in enhancing the calorific values of the briquettes was found with bagasse, coal dust and wood dust. Whereas, molasses helped to bind the dispersed phase.

Briquettes, Calorific value, Organic waste.
