The high demands of raw materials have urged the search for alternatives to pure wood materials, such as residual biomass obtained from intensive agriculture. In this study, pellets that utilize biomass from pruning of olive trees (<i>Olea europea</i> L.) were produced, which is a species intensively cultivated in Greece and Mediterranean countries. The leaves, embarked branches of 3 different diameter classes (thin, medium, thick), as well as pure stem-wood have been examined as pellets feedstock material, both separately and in different materials mixtures, including the synthesis case of initial materials ratio recorded in pruning residues material. The pelletization process was performed using a single pellet die press at 120 °C applying the pressure of 3 tons. The raw materials were characterized in regard to ash content, calorific value, moisture content, while the produced pellets were characterized in terms of moisture content, density, dimensional stability and mechanical strength. According to the requirements of ENplus certification system concerning the biofuels feedstock properties, the olive tree pruning residues material, despite their high calorific value, cannot be used as pellets feedstock material in the specific form of recorded initial pruning materials ratio (leaves, thin / medium / thick branches). The presence of leaves appeared to increase the ash content and reduce the mechanical strength of pellets. The medium and thick branches could serve as feedstock of pellets of quality B for residential applications (as regards the ash content). Pure wood presented lower ash content, though it could be used as feedstock of pellets of quality A2 (not A1, due to ash restrictions), while it could be classified as B in a mixture with medium or thick branches. All the studied residual materials of olive tree bestowed the produced pellets with integrity and plasticity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":550,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Wood and Wood Products","volume":"82 5","pages":"1713 - 1724"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141871644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sixteen young Douglas fir trees growing in three stands in Galicia (NW Spain) were felled for the study. Small specimens of defect-free wood were obtained from the trees in order to determine annual growth ring width, density and shrinkage-related properties by standardised testing methods. The sampled wood was homogeneous and light (mean oven-dry density = 429 kg m<sup>− 3</sup>), and the dimensions were stable in response to changes in moisture content (volumetric shrinkage from saturation to oven-dry state = 12.0%; ratio tangential/radial shrinkage, i.e. anisotropic shrinkage = 1.6). The density of wood in the sampled trees increased with the diameter at breast height and decreased with the height in the stem. The observed significant between-tree and intra-tree variation in wood properties was used to develop a model for predicting oven-dry density, with diameter at breast height and height in the stem as predictor variables (adjusted coefficient of determination = 0.57).

Furthermore, silicon groups by blocking functional hydroxyl groups, induced hydrophobicity in cellulose nanofibers, as indicated by contact angle and water uptake measurements.

In this study, the bending performance of three-layered CLT constructed from fibre-managed <i>Eucalyptus nitens</i> (<i>E. nitens</i>) was investigated under short-term and long-term loadings. Linear-elastic four-point bending testing was used to determine the maximum serviceability loading capacity before they reached the suggested deflection limits. A pilot study was conducted to investigate the creep behaviour of <i>E. nitens</i> CLT through long-term bending tests in a controlled environmental room. The study suggested that <i>E. nitens</i> CLT has higher serviceability loading capacity and lower creep ratio compared to CLT made from strength-class C24 spruce. The investigations of various configurations of <i>E. nitens</i> CLT panels based on structural grades implemented in top, cross, and bottom layers have revealed different short-term and long-term bending performances. The grade of transverse layers has been found to be the most important factor in improving the bending creep performance of <i>E. nitens</i> CLT. Two modelling equations were employed to perform curve fitting on the experimental creep ratio with time. The conventional power-law modelling tends to underestimate the longer-term creep ratio when compared to a recently developed nonlinear regression modelling equation that takes environmental conditions into account. The mean estimated creep ratio after 50 years was 1.77 for <i>E. nitens</i> CLT, and 1.89 for the C24 spruce CLT. The present study is a pilot investigation to increase the understanding of performance of the newly developed CLT made from fibre-managed plantations <i>E. nitens</i>, with particular emphasis on its creep behaviour.

In this work, a multispectral camera was adopted to retrieve high resolution remotely sensed imagery of different wood samples exploring the spectrum between 440 and 860 nm. Eighteen wood species spectra were investigated. Starting from these spectra, linear discriminant analysis (LDA) proved that the band at 665 nm is the first discriminative feature, followed by 490 nm and 560 nm, respectively. Bands at 783 nm or higher wavelengths, i.e. the NIR region, discriminate selected species poorly. Using the first 4 linear discriminants, a classification of wood species was performed using the minimum Mahalanobis distance algorithm. The majority of species showed class accuracies between 0.7 and 0.9. However, some species showed poor performances. Cluster analysis involving all available spectra proved that the higher classification errors occurred between species of the same spectral cluster. This work shows the potentialities of adopting cheap and rapid screening tool (cameras) for separating selected wood species opening new scenarios to support industrial and commercial control processes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":550,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Wood and Wood Products","volume":"82 5","pages":"1541 - 1550"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141609904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
