Abstract

The paper makes a comparison between four types of briquettes: first was wheat and rapeseed briquettes, second was wheat briquettes (batch 2018), third was wheat briquettes (batch 2017), and fourth was lucernes briquettes, from the point of view of the physical and energetic characteristics, in order to choose the best ones and their corresponding market. The main properties studied are the density and moisture of the briquettes, physical properties, and also calorific power and ash content as energetic properties. Research results show that wheat and rape briquettes have had high calorific value but low density, compared to other types of briquettes. A general conclusion rise from whole paper, respectively the vegetable biomass is a renewable material and briquettes from it remains the best option of combustible materials.

Highlights

  • The biomass is the biodegradable part of the vegetal products, wastes and agricultural residues, including the vegetal and animal substances, as well as the biodegradable part of industrial and / or urban wastes

  • There were analyzed four types of briquettes: wheat and rape briquettes, 2017 wheat briquettes, 2018 wheat briquettes, lucerne briquettes, in order to determine which are better to be used in combustion

  • The biomass represents a renewable source of energy

Summary

Introduction

The biomass is the biodegradable part of the vegetal products, wastes and agricultural residues, including the vegetal and animal substances, as well as the biodegradable part of industrial and / or urban wastes. The biomass represents the most abundant renewable resource on the planet. This includes absolutely all the organic matter, obtained through metabolic processes of live organisms. The biomass is one of the renewable sources forms which may be converted in solid, liquid and gaseous fuel, and which may generate energy as heat through its burning, as well as electrical energy through the industrial conversion processes, individually or in combination with fossil coal [1]
