Comparative Analysis on Calorific Value of Eucalyptus,Acacia mangium and Acacia crassicarpa
Making full use of wood energy is quite significant to ease China's energy crisis and to reduce the ecological load.An experiment was conducted to study the calorific value of Eucalyptus,Acacia mangium and Acacia crassicarpa in Hepu couty of Beihai city,Guangxi province.Results show that the calorific value of the three species is 19.782kJ/g,20.640kJ/g and 20.978kJ/g,respectively.The calorific value of the organs in each species from high to low order is almost the same,which is leaves,branches,sapwood of the trunk,heartwood of the trunk and bark.However,the value of bark in Acacia crassicarp is between its leave and branch.
