Effect of the sample length in compressive strength of Eucalyptus wood and char...
Veiga, Taís Regina Lima Abreu; Lima, José Tarcísio; Monteiro, Thiago Campos; Rocha, Maria Fernanda Vieira; de Jesus, Márcia Silva; Goulart, Selma LopesMechanical properties of charcoal are indicators of quality and they influence in steelmaking process. In general, assessment tests (falling and tumbling) present variable results compromising their reliability. So, it is important to develop methodologies that produce comparable results. This study aimed to analyze the influence of sample length to determine stiffness and strength of wood and charcoal. Samples...
Wood and charcoal quality from planted forest in Minas Gerais State, Brazil
Protásio, Thiago de Paula; Goulart, Selma Lopes; Neves, Thiago Andrade; Trugilho, Paulo Fernando; Ramalho, Fernanda Maria GuedesThe objective of this study was to evaluate the wood and charcoal quality of young Eucalyptus spp. trees, and to verify the influence of age and clone on the energy performance of these fuels. It was sampled the clones 1277 and 0321 of Eucalyptus spp. in two ages (46 and 58 months). The characteristics determined in the wood were: chemical molecular and elementary, basic density, carbon stocks and lignin by vol...
