Utilization of small-scale distributed rice husk heat: "KoCona System" - A guide to a decarbonized and sustainable society built by agricultural innovation.
Rasa Industries has established a technology to crush "rice husks" into powder at low cost and in large quantities, as well as an energy utilization technology that burns the crushed material as fuel in a dedicated hot water generation device, providing a heat source for facilities such as hot spring baths and greenhouses.
While it will be used as a crushed fuel, by manufacturing it at a lower cost than fossil fuels, it offers benefits to the heat utilization side, increases the calorific value of the rice husks themselves, homogenizes the fuel, and improves storage and transportation efficiency. Additionally, by burning and cooling it instantly, it does not generate crystalline silica (cristobalite).
With the active movement towards expanding SDG investments, climate change measures, and environmental considerations as criteria for transaction selection, efforts for regional decarbonization are becoming a necessary condition.
◆ "Struggling with the disposal and use of rice husks"
◆ "Wanting a heat source to produce hot water for launching decarbonization projects"
◆ "Considering regional energy circulation within the community," etc.
"Heat" ⇒ Supplied through the "Rice Husk Heat Utilization KoCona System"
"Electricity" ⇒ Self-generated through solar power, wind power, etc. (excluding biomass)
We aim to save Japanese agriculture, support community development in addition to energy demand, and contribute to the establishment of a Japanese version of "Stadtwerke."
