Pellets Evaluation Made from Tropical-Climate Agricultural and Forestry Crops of Costa Rica with a Domestic Stove
(Springer Netherlands, 2015-12)
The present study shows the results of the evaluation of the pellets made from two forestry crops and eight agricultural crops in Costa Rica by employing a 50 kW domestic stove. Methods: The following variables were ...
Quality of pellets made from agricultural and forestry crops in costa rican tropical climates
(North Carolina State University, 2015)
Pellets may be produced with different types of agriculture or forestry crops in Costa Rica. This work evaluated the energy, physical, and mechanical properties of pellets fabricated from 12 types of agricultural and ...
Evaluation of chemical compositions, air-dry, preservation and workability of eight fastgrowing plantation species in Costa Rica
(Revista Madera y Bosques, 2015)
Costa Rica has successfully planted various forestry species for wood production. However, the use of their wood is limited, due to poor
knowledge about their chemical properties, air-dry, preserved and workability ...
Biopulp from pineapple leaf fiber produced by colonization with two white-rot fungi: Trametes versicolor and Pleurotus ostreatus
(BioResources, 2016)
Trametes versicolor and Pleurotus ostreatus were used for the biopulping from pineapple leaf fiber (PALF). PALF substrate was subjected to T. versicolor for 2 to 6 weeks and to P. ostreatus for 4 to 8 weeks. The yields, ...
Characteristics and properties of torrefied biomass pellets from Gmelina arborea and Dipterix panamensis at different times
(Revista Chapingo, Serie Ciencias Forestales y del Ambiente, 2016)
Torrefaction and pelletizing were studied in the generation of energy from
lignocellulosic residues to increase the energy properties of the biomass. The aim of
this study was torrefied sawdust from Gmelina arborea and ...
Reducing warp and checking in 4 by 4 beams from small-diameter tropical species (tectona grandis, gmelina arborea, and cordia alliodora) obtained by turning the pith inside out.
(Forest Products Society, 2015)
Small-diameter logs from plantation trees are prone to warp and to produce checks due to the presence of juvenile wood, growth stresses, and asymmetric shrinkage during the drying process. In the present study, we analyzed ...
