At WICCARE Africa Ltd, we are committed to delivering sustainable, affordable, and efficient energy solutions for communities, institutions, and industries. Our biomass pellets are engineered from agricultural waste to serve as a clean-burning, high-performance alternative to firewood, charcoal, and fossil fuels.
Pellets are a compact, cylindrical fuel created from compressed organic materials like agricultural residues or sawdust. They are energy dense, clean burning and renewable – an excellent alternative to traditional fuels like firewood, charcoal or heating oil. Used in conjunction with an efficient gasifier cookstove such as the MimiMoto, pellets achieve savings of over 50% for the user, while drastically improving household air quality. Industrial boiler users can benefit from similar savings versus traditional fuel choices.
| Biomass Pellets | Charcoal | |
|---|---|---|
| Source | Agricultural waste (renewable) | Forest wood (non‑renewable) |
| Calorific Value | 16–20 MJ/kg | 25–30 MJ/kg (less efficient burn) |
| Smoke Emissions | Very low | High—especially when wet |
| Ash Residue | Minimal (< 3 %) | High (~10–15 %) |
| Health Impact | Clean burn, reduced indoor smoke | Contributes to indoor air pollution |
| Carbon Footprint | Carbon‑neutral (if sustainably sourced) | High CO₂ & black carbon emissions |
| Cost per Meal (est.) | Lower (efficient burn rate) | Higher (needs more fuel per meal) |
| Environmental Impact | Helps prevent deforestation, circular economy | Deforestation & biodiversity loss |
