- Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM); Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM); particle size distribution (PSD); Entrained Flow Reactor (EFR); Aerodynamic-Quenching Particle Sampling (AQPS) probe; four different biomass fuels were studied in this work: orujillo (a residue of the olive oil manufacturing process, and thus produced regularly and in huge amounts in the Mediterranean countries); sawdusts obtained separately from oak tree, chestnut tree and eucalyptus wood; proximate and ultimate ASTM analysis and inorganic matter composition of the sieved fuels; average fine particles composition (in a molar basis).
