Author:	Nejeliski, Danieli Maehler; Duarte, Lauren da Cunha; Ferreira, Érika da Silva
Description:	The increase in energy consumption in commercial and residential buildings is the result of the use of air conditioning systems to ensure an environment with thermal comfort. The use of insulating materials is an alternative to reduce energy losses, however, some of the conventional materials pose risks to health and the environment. The objective of this work is to present a current overview of the use of agricultural waste for the production of insulating panels. The methodology used was bibliometric, based on a search for publications in three databases. As a result, the panels produced from sugarcane bagasse, rice husk, coconut fiber and corncob stand out. The panels are characterized by low density and low rates of thermal conductivity. It can be concluded that the thermal conductivity of materials is affected by several factors, such as density, particle size and production specifications.
