| Summary: | Biomass is increasingly employed in diverse applications to achieve and
enhance energy efficiency, owing to its carbon-neutral nature. This is
attributed to the fact that the quantity of CO2 released during its
combustion corresponds precisely to the amount absorbed by biomass during
its growth. The objective of this study is to assess the energy efficiency
of biomass derived from analysed clones of fast-growing willow species in
co-combustion processes with lignite at varying percentage ratios. The
primary goal is to enhance the calorific value of lignite, optimize
combustion and mitigate the harmful effects of combustion. The obtained
results indicate that the calorific value of willow is higher than the
calorific value of coal. The calorific value of coal (lignite) depends on
the location of the coal deposit (field), while the calorific value of
willows depends on the type of willow. Notably, clones 347 and NS 73/6 of
white willow (Salix alba), have the highest energy potential compared to
clones B-44 of white willow and basket willow (Salix viminalis). |
