Mirá Biotech’s Low-Moisture Biofuel Pellets
Mirá Biotech's biofuel pellets offer a superior alternative to traditional energy sources, highlighting the importance of moisture content in pellet performance. Unlike conventional wood and torrefaction pellets with about 16.5% moisture—which lead to reduced energy output and storage issues—Mirá Biotech's pellets have only 5.9% moisture due to proprietary enzymatic technology. This results in higher combustion efficiency, improved sustainability through waste repurposing, and lower emissions compared to coal, aiding climate change efforts.
Environmental Benefits of Biofuel Pellets
Traditional wood pellet production raises significant environmental concerns, primarily due to deforestation, which threatens forests and species like the white pine that takes about 25 years to regenerate. Annually, energy-related deforestation accounts for 5 to 7 million acres lost, releasing 750 million to 1.05 billion tons of CO2—averaging 150 tons per acre—underscoring the urgent need for sustainable alternatives.
From Waste to Energy
Sustainable practices in biofuel production are crucial for minimizing environmental impacts and maximizing benefits. These practices prioritize ecological balance, resource efficiency, and social equity by using non-food feedstocks like agricultural residues and waste to avoid competition with food crops. Mirá Biotech exemplifies this with its biofuel pellets, integrating advanced biotechnological methods to enhance sustainability. Techniques such as agroforestry and energy-efficient practices improve soil health and reduce carbon emissions, while certified sustainability standards ensure responsible sourcing and community engagement. Overall, Mirá Biotech's approach positions biofuels as vital to a sustainable energy future.
From Farm to Fuel
As climate change challenges intensify, biomass emerges as a vital sustainable energy source. Its carbon-neutral lifecycle helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and can be sourced from agricultural residues and waste, preventing landfill use. Companies like Anheuser-Busch convert spent grains into bioenergy, enhancing sustainability and supporting rural economies. Biomass can also produce various biofuels, promoting energy diversification and independence. Major corporations, including United Airlines and Maersk, are investing in biofuels as part of their sustainability efforts, aligning with corporate social responsibility while creating a more sustainable future.
