Abstract

Different species of wood and wood residues derived from thermo-mechanical and chemical treatments were studied by thermal analysis (TG/DTG) in order to establish a simple and rapid method for determining the major constituents. It is shown that TG/DTG with well-defined conditions is an appropriate method to distinguish between lignin and carbohydrate and, with less precision, between cellulose and hemicellulose for all the types of biomass studied, treated or untreated.
