Recycling of Cellulosic Waste in the Energy Sector

Abstract

Biomass is one of the Earth’s most abundant and precious resources. It offers not only food but also energy, materials used for construction, chemicals and much more. Biomass has always been used for generating energy since fire was discovered. The term of biomass covers a wide range of products, derived products and waste obtained from agriculture, forestry, including those derived from farming, domestic and industrial waste. This paper aims at investigating the main characteristics of the briquettes made out of wood, wood chips and sawdust.
