What are the other uses/applications of Bana grass

Mackay Bana Grass is basically a dedicated bioenergy crop. It can be turned into Green Coal (charcoal) using Torrefaction. During the Torrefaction process, the volatile components are captured and fed to an Externally Fired Gas Turbine (EFGT) to produce electricity. It can also be used as a Biomass Fuel, perfect for IFGT (Indirectly Fired Gas Turbine) and existing steam boilers. Using Fischer-Tropsch Process, Bana Grass can be converted to liquid fuel. Biofuels can be customized to produce diesel, gasoline, kerosene & aviation fuel.

Around 8 weeks, the crude protein content is extremely high (approximately 16%) when harvested making it a good feedstock for cattle, goat or sheep. At 4 months, the tops can still be used for feed while the stalk is used for biomass fuel. The mature cane (4 months) has a typical moisture of around 55%. The green leafy parts have a moisture content of between 65 & 70%. When expressing dry tonnes, we assume an actual moisture of around 12%.
