ENERGETIC CAPITALIZATION OF BIOMASS RESIDUES RESULTED AFTER EXTRACTING FIBERS FROM CANNABIS SATIVA L.
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Cannabis sativa L (hemp) is grown for its natural fiber content in a high percentage and also for its seeds rich in siccative oil. Hemp fibers are longer than flax ones, are very durable, quite strong and are used for confectioning a large range of textile product that are resistant to rotting even immersed in water. Short fibers (oakum) are used to confection mattresses, also as insulating material. Secondary products oils, hemp cakes are used for obtaining different food supplements used for human nutrition, but also as animal feed,especially cakes. Another by product obtained from processing hemp is represented by hemp plant residues derived from the woody core of industrial hemp after being processed. The paper presents a characterization of hemp residues in terms of ash content, calorific value, in the view of capitalizing them as biofuel (briquettes / pellets).
