DIAZ ARTIGAS, Iván Jesús et al. Energy briquettes with sawdust and pine bark. Energética [online]. 2020, vol.41, n.1  Epub 01-Ene-2020. ISSN 1815-5901.

With the objective of this investigation, the energy use of the briquettes as densified solid biofuel, manufactured with sawdust and pine bark, using as a binder a residue of the distillation of the pine resin, from wood residues of the sawmill. For this, three types of briquettes were prepared, with optimal conditions for their best use, such as the mixture of sawdust with pine bark, composed of raw materials in different percentages. With the manufacture of these briquettes, the immediate analysis of the samples was determined, obtaining low values of ash and humidity, which improves their properties as fuel. Density, thermal conductivity and resistance tests were performed, achieving desired results to improve its composition. Establishing that, the briquette that presents the appropriate physicochemical and mechanical properties, is type II briquette, that is, the mixture of sawdust with bark.

Palabras clave : sawdust and pine; bark biofuels; briquettes.
