Abstract

The paper makes a comparison between four types of briquettes: first was wheat and rapeseed briquettes, second was wheat briquettes (batch 2018), third was wheat briquettes (batch 2017), and fourth was lucernes briquettes, from the point of view of the physical and energetic characteristics, in order to choose the best ones and their corresponding market. The main properties studied are the density and moisture of the briquettes, physical properties, and also calorific power and ash content as energetic properties. Research results show that wheat and rape briquettes have had high calorific value but low density, compared to other types of briquettes. A general conclusion rise from whole paper, respectively the vegetable biomass is a renewable material and briquettes from it remains the best option of combustible materials.
