This 85 kW biomass plant will enable the DB FOODS rice processing plant, through the innovative technique of rice husk valorization, to become self-sufficient in electricity.

This achievement is part of the BioStar project, which aims to contribute to energy and food security in West Africa through the development of a bioenergy sector, fulfilling the needs of agri-food processing SMEs.

The Agrogazelec project, supported by the French Global Environment Facility (FFEM), has also enabled the training of African technicians in the exploitation and adaptation of the technology, for its transfer from Cambodia to Africa.
