<p class="MsoNormal">I am thinking the following are the properties of biomass that effect the small stove combustion process. And that the constituents listed cross all biomass boundaries. No need to say ‘oak’ or ‘pine-cones etc. It covers the range from Richards
briquettes, rice burners, dung, stick wood and chips. Although the test methods may not perform to ASTM procedures they are designed to be easily performed in any small backyard lab and results in the working range of biomass. The list is as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
