ABSTRACT

This paper focuses on comparison of some energy woody species for process of combustion from the aspect of amount of produced emissions, lower calorific value, humidity and presence of solid pollutants. The measured results compare which woody species are more suitable from the aspect of influence on the environment and surroundings.

Keywords: emissions, energy woody species, lower calorific value, NO_x
