Biomass Fuel Testing

Biomass Fuel Testing

Dev Petro Chem R & D Centre biomass fuel testing laboratories test biomass fuels for quality. Crucial biomass fuel tests include calorific value, ash content, moisture content and sulphur content tests.

 

Biomass fuels tested for quality include wood products, crops, other plants, manure, some types of rubbish and other organic materials which can burn. Biomass fuels are derived from renewable sources, such as wood chips, waste materials, and plants.

 

Fuel pellets are typically produced from wood, plant fibers, waste paper, and other sources. Fuel pellets can vary in quality, heat value, trace elements, and other factors.

 

Common Tests conducted on Biomass materials includes as per ASTM D 3302, ASTM E 1534, ASTM E 872, ASTM E 870, ASTM E 711, ASTM E 775.
