POONKAVANAM BIOMASS BRIQUETTES PRIVATE LIMITED

In their own words

Our company has a vision to ensure sustainability of agricultural income and increase usage of green energy, through value addition to post harvest agricultural waste . Our enterprise aims to use coconut waste like leaf, tender coconut, coconut shell, inflorescence etc, wood waste, leaves shedded from trees etc. as raw material for a briquette manufacturing unit. After conversion of agricultural waste to briquettes in our plants, the same can be used as a renewable energy source in boilers, heaters and other similar industrial equipment. Our business solves many local pollution, common issues faced by the general public such as breeding of mosquitoes in water collected in tender coconut, economic issues for farmers, expenses for waste removal from site, deforestation and forest fire resulting from accumulated waste and collection of leaves provides livelihood for tribal people. At a national level, our aim is to contribute to the proliferation of sustainable energy. Our briquettes are organic and result in low emission of Greenhouse gasses. Briquettes are a substitute for petroleum products which will in turn help in saving India's foreign exchange. End-users for our product (biomass briquettes) are energy using sectors like industries and commercial establishments. These briquettes help them in increasing their profitability as well as contribute to social responsibility in ensuring less pollution.
