Determination of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen in Biomass

Reference Number: 203-821-665

Overview

Carbon, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen determination is part of the ultimate analysis of solid biofuel materials. Determining the content of these elements can help to characterize the materials and provide information that can be utilized in calculating material/energy balances. In addition, this information may be used to calculate efficiencies, as well as emissions potentials, for solid biofuel materials.
