Description
Biomass Briquettes available on Urja Mitra are manufactured using high-pressure densification technology that compresses loose agricultural biomass — rice husk, wheat straw, sugarcane bagasse, cotton stalks, and other crop residues — into solid, uniform cylindrical blocks without the use of any chemical binders. The result is a dense, clean-burning fuel that can directly substitute for coal or firewood in most combustion applications.
Unlike loose biomass, briquettes offer dramatically higher bulk density (up to 1,200 kg/m³ vs. 150 kg/m³ for loose straw), making them far more economical to transport, store, and handle. Industries that previously dealt with bulky biomass storage challenges find briquettes a convenient and space-efficient solution.
Urja Mitra’s biomass briquette supply is aggregated from a network of quality-verified manufacturers across multiple states, ensuring uninterrupted availability throughout the year — even during the post-harvest off-season when biomass supply chains typically face disruptions. Buyers can place monthly supply contracts through our platform with guaranteed pricing for up to 6 months.
Biomass briquettes play a critical role in India’s transition away from coal under the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) biomass policy. Urja Mitra actively assists industrial buyers in accessing subsidies, carbon credits, and compliance benefits associated with the adoption of biomass briquettes as a coal substitute.
