Groundnut shell is a high-calorific agri residue. Sell it to briquette units and boilers in India through BioTradX.

Why groundnut shell burns well

Shells are relatively dry at the mill and have a calorific value often quoted above many straws. They are a staple blend in briquettes in Gujarat, Andhra, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka.

Who generates volume

Decortication units and oil mills. Seasonality follows the kharif and rabi groundnut harvests. Plan listings around those peaks.

Trade practice

Sell in gunny or jumbo bags if possible. Loose shell is messy and loses value in rain. State origin district. Buyers map freight from Rajkot, Anantapur, or Namakkal differently.

List on BioTradX

Add groundnut shell as a biomass category listing with monthly tonnes and moisture.
