TLDR
In this article, a simple equation based on proximate analysis (volatile matter and fixed carbon contents) is presented which allows calculation of the higher heating value of lignocellulosics as well as the charcoals resulting from their carbonization.

Characterization of biochars to evaluate recalcitrance and agronomic performance.

TL;DR: Prediction of biochar stability was improved by a combination of volatile matter and H:C ratios corrected for inorganic C, and agronomic utility of biochars is not an absolute value, as it needs to meet local soil constraints.

Estimating the higher heating value of biomass fuels from basic analysis data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new correlation between the heating value and dry ash content of biomass (in weight percent, wt%) (i.e. HHV (MJ/kg) = 19.914-0.2324 Ash) to estimate the HHV from proximate analysis.

Prediction of heating values of biomass fuel from elemental composition

TL;DR: In this paper, a subset of 154 biomass samples of very different origin (for instance wood, grass, rye, rape, reed, brewery waste, and poultry litter) have been selected from the database BIOBIB.
Journal ArticleDOI

A correlation for calculating HHV from proximate analysis of solid fuels

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduced a general correlation, based on proximate analysis of solid fuels, to calculate higher heating value (HHV) using 450 data points and validated further for additional 100 data points.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of higher heating values of biomass from proximate and ultimate analyses

TL;DR: In this paper, two new empirical correlations based on proximate and ultimate analyses of biomass used for prediction of higher heating value (HHV) are presented in this paper, and validated via incorporation of additional biomass data.

Study of the physical and chemical properties of lignocellulosic residues with a view to the production of fuels

TL;DR: In this article, the heating value of agricultural residues such as wheat straw, wood fellings, vine shoots and cotton plant stalks in addition to forest residues (e.g. those from holm oaks and eucalyptuses) was determined and compared with that of fossil fuels.
