Abstract

In India, every year, 8 tons of floral waste are disposed of in rivers and water bodies, polluting them in huge amounts. If this floral waste is used, the amount of waste can be significantly reduced to a huge content. These flowers are widely used in the preparation of incense sticks and value-added products. This study identified the use of different flowers for the preparation of incense sticks. In this study, we identified the best composition for incense stick making, in which a good amount of flower powder was used. Out of all the combination treatments, T10 (Charcoal 10% + sawdust 10% + jigat 20% + jasmine 60%) produced the best results in terms of incense stick character stick length, stick diameter, stick thickness, test weight, burning duration, and smell present in the room after burning.
