Optimal feedstock particle size and its influence on final briquette quality
Original language description
Present paper monitored one of most important feedstock property, specifically particle size, and its influence on briquette quality. Six different types of briquettes were produced; two conifer tree barks (pine and spruce) with three different particle sizes (<6; 6 – 12; >12 mm) were used as feedstock materials. Investigated briquettes were subjected to gross calorific value, ash content, volume density, mechanical durability and rupture force determination. Evaluation of measured values stated particle size 6 – 12 mm as most suitable for spruce bark briquettes, followed by <6 mm and >12 mm. Within pine bark briquettes a particle size equal to <6 mm exhibited best results, then 6 – 12 mm and >12 mm. Generally, most suitable particle size was attributed to 6 – 12 mm, however, results did not prove one unambiguous optimal particle size. In conclusion, results values did not support prevailing opinion that smaller particle sizes are more suitable for briquette production.
