Abstrakt
The work is a compendium of laboratory methods enabling determination of key physical and chemical properties of almost all types of biomass and its components of significant technological importance. Particular emphasis was placed on raw materials, fractions and final products crucial for the biofuel industry and referring to binding strict quality standards. The syntheses procedures presented in the first part show how to carry out in the laboratory high-temperature biomass conversion (pyrolysis and gasification), biodiesel synthesis from various fatty raw materials, fermentation of starch hydrolysates to bioethanol and how to produce the biogas. The second part is a wide collection of analytical procedures necessary for the qualitative and quantitative characterisation of bioresources and biocomponents. For simplicity, this part was divided into three sections showing successively the methods dedicated for characterisation of solid, liquid and gas fractions.
