The application of elemental analysis for the determination of the elemental composition of lignocellulosic materials

Abstract

The application of elemental analysis for the determination of the elemental composition of lignocellulosic materials. The presented work includes research on different types of lignocellulosic materials: woody materials, agricultural materials and fruity materials. The aim of the study was the determination of the elemental composition of lignocellulosic materials using elemental analysis by high-temperature combustion, column separation and measuring the gaseous products to determine the carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur, and with the use of potentiometric titration to determine the chlorine. In addition, in order to evaluate the relationship between those elements and also the suitability of the tested materials for use, e.g. as a biofuels, their calorific value was also determined.
