Rice byproducts such as rice husk, rice bran, and rice straw have various utilization applications. Rice husk can be used as fuel, to produce silica, or in making particle boards. Rice bran contains oil that can be extracted for uses like edible oil or industrial applications. Rice straw has uses as animal feed, fuel, mushroom substrate, vermicomposting, and for paper production. Overall, rice milling byproducts provide opportunities for value-added utilization beyond their disposal as agricultural waste.

4. By-product - A by product is a secondary product derive from a manufacturing
process or chemical reaction during production of main product.
Rice Straw - Straw is produced by harvesting of paddy. Straw comes from what is
left on the plant after it is harvested.
1 ton of paddy crop produces 290 kg straw
290 kg straw produce 100 kWh of power
Calorific value = 2400 kcal/kg
Rice Husk - Husk are generated during the first stage of rice milling, when rough
rice and paddy rice is husked and the grains are threshed.
1 ton of paddy produces 220 kg husk
1 ton husk is equivalent to 410-570 kWh electricity
Calorific value = 3000 kcal/kg
Rice bran - Rice bran is the layer between the inner grain and the outer hull of
whiter rice is called as bran.

9. The straw fuel or biofuel of biomass pellet mill machine uses corn stalk, wheat straw,
rice straw, peanut shell, cob, cotton bar, soybean rod, weeds, branches, leaves, sawdust,
bark and other solid wastes as raw materials.
After crushing, pressing, increasing density and forming, they become small solid
pellets fuel.
Delivery and storage for biomass pellet fuel is very convenient and at the same time, its
combustion performance is greatly improved. The technological process of biomass
pellet mill is: collecting raw materials, crushing raw materials, pelletize raw materials
and finally packaging and selling.

11. Degradable Disposal
These products are not only reduce the problem of agricultural waste but also diminish
the dependence on non-renewable petroleum based, melanin products that are non-
biodegradable and well existing for hundreds of years8.
Materials: Agricultural crop residues as rice husk and wheat husk, lemon juice and
carboxy methyl cellulose.

b) after water resistant coating as
final products

Preparation of Husk paste
Weighed 3.5g carboxy methyl cellulose and mixed
it with 100ml of distilled water to make 3.5% edible
glue.
Then mixed thoroughly the husk powder with
edible glue in the ratio of 96.5:3.5% and some lemon
juice was also added.
After that the mixture was saturated with steam in
the autoclave for 20min at the temperature of 120oC.
As a result uniform husk paste material was formed
which was then further sterilized with UV light for
15min by using UV lamp.

12. To Make Paper
Straw is a competitive, alternative source of fiber for paper making to reduce the pressures on
forests. Rice straw can be used not only to make paper but various paper products (i.e.,
newsprint, copier paper, bond paper, etc.).
Paper manufacturing process flow chart

NaS) and steamed for about two to
three hours at high temperature

).bleaching agents are used to
bleach the pulp like chlorine,
chlorine dioxide, hydrogen
peroxide, oxygen and calcium
hypo chlorite.
Jordan is used in mechanical pulp

15. Vermin compost
Paddy waste is used for making vermin compost, various methods are:-
Size of worm compost heaps
Wide = 1-2 m
High = 30-50 cm
Length = As long as desired
Worm used = Eisenia fetida
Location
Distributed b/w rows of trees
Housed in shelters

16. Silica
One ton of paddy milled generates 200 kg of husk
200 kg of husk give 50 kg of ash
The ash contains 60~80% Silica (i.e.) 40 kg silica per
ton of paddy
Uses of Precipitated silica in products :
Rubber reinforcement (Tyre industry)
Plastic reinforcement
Agriculture (Animal food)
Food, Healthcare, Cosmetics
Catalyst; Coatings
Pulp and Paper processing
17. Rice bran
Different bran sample (rough, parboiled & raw bran)
Bran is the hard outer layer of grain and consists of
aleuronic, pericarp, germ and a part of endosperm.
Bran removal amounts to 4% to 9% weight of the paddy
milled..

27. Packing Materials: The compaction resistance and resiliency of rice straw makes it a very good
packing material.
Erosion control and soil stabilization: Rice straw is an effective material both in commercial
erosion control practices and in rice field erosion control. Bales of rice straw can be shredded on
site and blown into roadside cuts and fills to provide soil stabilization.
Frost control: layers of rice straw can be used for frost control in areas with low temperatures.
These uses are usually closely allied with mulching and composting and it is difficult to
determine which one of the practices is dominant.
Sewage sludge mixing: Rice straw would be a suitable bulking agent for sewage sludge
composting and disposal. It would appear that chopped or fiberized straw would increase both
absorbency and acceleration of decomposition.
