Abstract
The use of renewable energy sources brings great benefits. Interest in biomass is growing -, because conventional energy significantly burdens the natural environment, and resources of fossil fuels are rapidly decreasing. Surplus cereal grains or grains that do not meet quality requirements can be used for energy production. For this reason, the aim of the work was to conduct research and evaluate the use of hulled and naked oat grains for energy purposes. The calorific value of grain and its ash content were analyzed. On the basis of the conducted research, it was shown that bare forms of oat, compared to hulled forms, are characterized by more favorable calorific properties. They have more fat and fewer ashes in the grain. Among the analyzed cultivars, Polar and Bingo (naked forms of oats) and Krezus (hulled forms) are suitable for energy purposes.
