Abstract:
Bamboo can be a good fuel for co-firing biomass due to the fast growth rate, but due to the large potassium content in ash, its use has been restricted. In this study, methanol was used to extract potassium from bamboo so that clinker production from bamboo ash can be suppressed. Potassium removal rate was determined experimentally and expressed using exponential model successfully.
