Agricultural residues such as bagasse, corn cob, corn leave, saw dust, almond shell, rice husk, cotton stalks, cotton The moisture content was estimated by the weight loss of the biomass sample as a result of The elemental composition of the agriculture residues were determined through ultimate analysis of samples [23]. estimated moisture content in the obtained agriculture residue samples ranges between about 4.8 %wt. ./cache/work_pj47e3xol5coldo7nrpfsy4gfa.pdf ./txt/work_pj47e3xol5coldo7nrpfsy4gfa.txt
