What does MEGASS mean in Scrabble?
noun
The dry fibrous waste left after the juice has been pressed from sugar cane.
Mills burn megass as fuel to power the sugar-making process, and it is also used for making paper or board. The same material is more often called bagasse, and megasse is a still older spelling. Because it is a by-product that costs nothing to collect, a mill can often run on its own megass without buying coal.
