The objective of this research is to produce high quality of charcoal from the AUTOMATIC INTERPRETATION OF HIGH RESOLUTION SAR IMAGES: FIRST RESULTS OF SAR IMAGE SIMULATION FOR SINGLE BUILDINGS most known local wastes as a binder.The solid waste was collected from Bonga city and the production of charcoal briquette based on different binder preparation.The local wastes like sawdust and paper were used as a binder comparing with starch as a standard binder.

Since the result obtained by using sawdust shows better burning time and less smoke comparing with using paper as a binder.The proximate analysis result obtained for degradable solid waste was its density, percentage of moisture, volatile matter, ash, fixed carbon, and caloric value of 16.73 kg/m3,17.

85% and 18.39MJ/kg respectively.In the same way, fuel briquette using sawdust as a binder was characterized for its density, percentage of porosity, weight index, shatter resistance, moisture content, volatile matter content, ash content, fixed Thermoregulation strategies in ants in comparison to other social insects, with a focus on red wood ants (Formica rufa group) [v2; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/35p] carbon content, and caloric value which is 750.

87%, 29.6%, 3.56%, 56.

97% and 27.38 MJ/kg respectively.Using sawdust is better than using paper as a binder since the briquette produced by using sawdust as a binder shows less smoke and higher burning time.

This shows that it is possible to convert solid wastes into fuel briquettes using local wastes as binders.
