| contents | ASSESSMENT OF THE EN ERGY POTENTIAL OF CROP RESIDUES AND ANIMAL WASTES IN TANZANIA Felichesmi Selestine Lyakurwa Administración y Contabilidad Energy Energy Tanzania Tanzania Monte Carlo Energy access has a significant contribution to the social, economic and environmental dimensions of human development. The access to clean and safe energy can improve the human health and quality of ecosystems by reducing the extent of pollution caused by use of inefficient cooking equipment’s and processes, and by slowing environmental degradation. In this paper , Monte Carlo simulation was applied to evaluate the amount of crop residues available which provided the basis for the quantity of ener gy that can be generated from the crop residues and animal wastes in Tanzania. The amount of crop residues and animal wastes was estimated from the agricultural stat istical data obtained from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO ) from 1961 - 2012. The analysis revealed the bioenergy potential of crop residues in Tanzania to be 5, 714TJ in 2012, which is extremely larger than the installed electric energy generation capacity of 1.564 TJ in 2013. Besides, the estimation of renewable energy potential of live animals indicated the ability to generate 1,397 TJ/year if exploited. Thus, effective utilization of crop residues and animal wastes without compromising the amount required for the soil fertility and animal feeds can contribute greatly to the access of safe and clean energy for sustainable development of the rural and urban areas of Tanzania. 2016 artículo científico 2236-269X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=449549377014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4495 Independent Journal of Management & Production application/pdf Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de São Paulo Independent Journal of Management & Production (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.7 |
