“…The calorific value of biomass is dependent on its chemical composition i.e., cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, extractives and ash forming minerals (Shafizadeh 1981). Lignin and extractives have lower degree of oxidation and considerably higher heat of combustion in comparison with cellulose and hemicellulose (Kumar et al 1992). The tree-age variability in calorific value of Eucalyptus hybrid trees was found to be practically marginal.…”

“…During the combustion process, when the biomass is heated, the volatiles escape first and burn in gaseous state leaving behind the fixed carbon as char, which burns later in solid state. High fixed carbon content adds to high-energy value of plant material (Kumar et al 1992). The fixed carbon content of mature tree was 20.36%, which in general is higher than that of lower age trees.…”

“…O poder calorífico superior é um dos parâmetros importantes para diferenciar uma biomassa de outra quanto ao potencial para geração de energia e é dependente da composição química (celulose, hemiceluloses, lignina e extrativos) da biomassa avaliada (SHAFIZADEH, 1981). A lignina e os extrativos apresentam baixo grau de oxidação e alto calor de combustão em comparação com a celulose e as hemiceluloses (KUMAR et al, 1992), justificando seu uso no presente trabalho como variáveis dependentes. Na Tabela 2, estão apresentados os valores médios para os teores de extrativos totais, lignina, cinzas e o poder calorífico superior (PCS) das biomassas avaliadas.…”

“…Bamboo charcoal is also used as a decolorizing agent for decolorizing sugar solutions, organic preparations, alcohol and petroleum products. Although charcoal can be made from any lignocellulosic raw material, but not all the species produces good quality charcoal (Kumar et al 1992). Quality of charcoal varies with physical, chemical and anatomical properties of species (Kumar et al 2008).…”
