The higher and lower calorific values of briquettes produced from ground plum pits were determined experimentally. To assess the energy potential more comprehensively, the heat values of briquettes made from date and avocado pits were also determined. Based on the results presented, briquettes made from date pits have an average calorific value of around 19 MJ/kg, placing them in the same range as certain types of wood. Plum pit briquettes exhibit even higher energy potential, exceeding 21 MJ/kg, while avocado pit briquettes show a slightly lower value, around 16 MJ/kg. The results indicate that briquettes made from plum, date, and avocado pits possess notable energy potential, though sample preparation is essential to achieve maximum efficiency.enbriquettesplum pitscalorific value of solid fuelconferenceObject
