Energy consumption and CO2 analysis of different types of chippers used in wood biomass plantations

Author

  • Manzone, Marco

Abstract

Woodchip is preferred to all biomass forms because it shows standardised sizes and offers additional benefits in terms of load density. In Europe, a large amount of woodchip is produced by dedicated cultivations: very Short Rotation Coppice (vSRC) and Short Rotation Coppice (SRC). The chipping operation can be done during the biomass harvest or some months after tree cutting. This operation can be performed by different machines: disc chippers, drum chippers, feller-chippers and grinders.
