Özet

Five waste wood samples representing to wood processing wastes; pine wood and four chemically treated

waste wood; wooden window frame, wooden parquet and two different furniture made of MDF (f1 and f2,

produced for the production of office furniture from two different factories) were selected to determine

combustion characteristics. Pine tree samples (Pinus brutia) not treated any chemicals and additives were

obtained from the timber production center in Isparta. In addition, 2 different local lignites; Tuncbilek and

Soma lignites were also used to stand for Turkish local lignites. In this study, 21 raw lignite and raw

biomass samples were prepared and characterized by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The waste

wood samples were found to be more reactive than local lignites. Accordingly, in industrial applications,

the combustion performance of lignite can be enhanced in the thermochemical systems by adding of the

waste wood into lignite.
