Example embodiments provide methods and apparatuses for providing fuel briquettes from human feces. In an example embodiment, feces are treated to inactivate pathogens resident therein and to cause the cellulose material in the feces to undergo a phase transition. The treatment of the feces comprises heating the feces. Briquettes are formed from a mixture comprising the treated feces and carbonized agricultural waste product. The treated feces acts a binder such that the mixture may be formed into briquettes.
