Abstract
The main aim of this study is to provide the experimental research of the combustion characteristics for the different types of the biomass pellets during their thermo chemical conversion with estimation the correlations between the main characteristics of pelletized plant biomass and combustion characteristics. The experiments include first, the preparation of the pelletized biomass samples of different origin with certain elemental composition, heating values, moisture content, bulk and energetic density, and second, kinetic study of the combustion characteristics with local measurements of the temperature and composition of the flame reaction zone and heat production rates at different stages of the thermo chemical conversion of pelletized biomass and different air supply rates into the combustor to obtain optimal combustion conditions of plant biomass. Correlations between the main characteristics of pelletized samples and combustion/emission characteristics of pelletized biomass fuel have been derived and analyzed.
