Lignocellulosic Biofuels and Grass Plants Used in Production of Pellets

Use of plant biomass in energy production is one of the preconditions to compensate growing shortage of fossil resources; therefore the research covered production of pellet samples and testing of quality parameters thereof. The study aimed at researching hemicellulose indicators in osier and poplar pellets, lignin content in perennial crops (depending on fertiliser types, norms), parameters characterising pellet content variations (their evaluation and optimisation depending upon the proportions of pellet components) as well as characterisation of lignocellulose parameters.
