Drying and storing of comminuted wood fuels

Abstract

A relatively large number of storing and drying studies of wood fuels have been carried out within the countries participating in the International Energy Agency (IEA) Bioenergy Programme. The main purpose of the studies has been to contribute to the knowledge of the processes taking place during storing and drying, and to formulated guidelines for practical storage of wood fuels. This report gives an overview of research carried out over the last few years within the countries participating in the IEA Bioenergy cooperation.
