The Use of Maize Stalks for Energy Purposes and Emissions Measurement during their Combustion
Keywords:
emission limits, maize cortical, maize cortical combustion, maize cortical harvesting, renewable energyAbstract
The objective of the work was a monitoring of possibilities of maize cortical harvesting by combine harvesters and its subsequent use for energy purposes during combustion. We monitored the combustion of packages with the moisture of 18% and 38% and the effect of moisture on the content of gas emissions of CO2, NO, NO2 as well as the percentage of residual O2 in the flue gas after combustion. All values of monitored emission limits were in current normative limits defined in Collection of Laws no. 356/2010.
