tends to dominate these abandoned or fallow areas. These weed species are
along river banks, roadsides, and railroads, on waste ground and along the
banks of lakes and ponds. Roxburgh (1971), stated that it is able to grow on
fertile (to approximately 5 m tall) and poorer soils (to about 3 m tall). It is usually
propagation is from rhizomes and stem fragments, as each node has a root band
with one or two rows of root primordia. Seed production is very variable; in the

Zone, Central Zone, and West Zone and other countries infesting millions of
family and Andropogoneae tribe, which is grown widely in tropical and subtropical
regions. It is the highest yielding crop worldwide and accounts for approximately
75% of the world sugar production. In recent years, sugarcane has gained
increasing attention as a biofuel crop due to its high biomass yield potential
lignocelluloses makes one of the most encouraging future biomass feedstock for
to grow at a fast rate without aiding any economic input. Usually, the cost of
feedstock, which represents more than one-third of all processing cost is the
most important factor in the ethanol production process (Wyman, 2007; Chandel

productivity, and are ideally sized for complete combustion. The process helps to
solve the residual disposal problem and it provides additional income to farmers.
Charcoal briquettes are easy to ignite. There is no sulfur and fly ash when
burning briquettes. So it does not pollute the environment (Sharma et al. 45).
Using charcoal briquettes is cheaper than other charcoal. Once you used oil, coal
or lignite it cannot be replaced. Briquettes have much smaller ash content (2-
compared to coal. Briquettes are usually created near the consumption centers
and supplies do not rely on erratic transport from long distances. It gives much
higher boiler efficiency because of low moisture and higher density. Also,
briquettes are easy to store, pack and hygienic to handle (Ahmed et al. 143).
in the bulk density of the material which makes it easier to transport and store,
there is higher energy substance per unit volume of the material and it enables
lasting and almost smokeless fire. Briquette making has the possibility to meet
the additional energy demands of urban and industrial sectors, thereby making a

fuels are not as simple to obtain. Heat industrial boilers used briquettes to
produce electricity from steam. It is a substitute for fossil fuels such as oil or coal,
the only permanent solution into limitations of the national laws and avoid
than 90% of Filipinos rely on charcoal for cooking. While liquefied petroleum gas
(LPG) is used only at a 1-2% because of the high cost of living. Yet, in order to
produce charcoal trees are needed to be cut down. As an outcome, only the
kinds of trees that don't burn easily are left in the Philippines' forests. (The
replacement for coal and charcoal it reduces the risk of cutting trees because

According to (Davies, R.M., Davies, O.A. 2014), water lily invaded most of the
creeks and inlets, clogging drainage, ditches, shading out other aquatic
recreation and other commercial activities whose survival depend upon water.
On the other hand, when water lily is used for the production of biofuel, this could
be perhaps the best method to both harvest and control. This will enhance rural
wood, herbaceous and aquatic plants, crop and forest residues, animal wastes.

water pollution. It also helps to maintain forest health through better
