Influence of Cellulose Content in Plant Biomass on Selected Qualitative Traits of Pellets
2015
Kraszkiewicz, Artur | Kachel-Jakubowska, Magdalena | Lorencowicz, Edmund | Przywara, Artur
The results from tests for the presence of cellulose in the agricultural biomass waste for selected quality traits of pellets produced were presented. Selected test raw materials revealed the average cellulose content determined by Kürschner-Hanak method in the range from less than 32% (buckwheat straw) to less than 43% (rye straw). There was negative linear relationship between the cellulose content in pellets from waste plant biomass and the bulk density and stability of pellets. It would be justified to carry out research on the content of lignin in plant biomass in the context of its impact on density, durability and the calorific value of the agglomerate.
