Abstract
With the increased emphasis in the utilization of biomass for energy, the interest in wood as an energy resource has moved from just mill residues to include in-woods residues. This study looked at five examples of in-woods biomass collection: two chipping operations and three grinding operations. Samples were taken from three truckloads at each operation and analyzed for particle size distribution, moisture content, British thermal unit value per ovendry pound, and ash content. The average characteristics of the processed residue were 87 percent moisture content, 7,945 Btu/lb oven dried, and 3.1 percent ash content.
