Producción artesanal de carbón: Una innovación y estrategia para utilizar los residuos de sistemas agrosilvopastoriles de traspatio

Abstract

The felling of trees, the misuse of fertilizers and fossil fuels, has had a negative effect on global warming, as well as the increase in the greenhouse effect. On the other hand, there are alternatives to use renewable energies such as the use of biomass, these They can be alternated with Agrosilvopastoral management techniques. The objective of this work is to make known that the Postgraduate College has an area dedicated to this model, however, there is a problem, with the trees that die naturally or the waste (branches) that are formed, represent problems of management and conduct of activities. For this reason, an environmentally friendly alternative was sought, which activates processes and generates an opportunity to enter the system, such as artisanal charcoal production as added value. The waste problem in the backyard Agrosilvopastoral system is solved and extra income is generated, with the sale to local businesses, using remains of wooden trunks, branches of the Eucalyptus ssp tree. The production of artisanal charcoal will be commercialized with the help of the commerce area of ​​the Colegio de Posgraduados.
