Low-density peats from many countries have long been studied by many authors. They are
mostly forest and moss peats. Different peat types, from different locations in the world, may
present degradation behavior that differs significantly. Bulk density, which is one the most
important physical parameters governing the smoldering dynamics of solid fuels, varies
among countries' peatlands. This work compares experimental data for low (200 kg m− 3)
and high (450 kg m− 3) bulk density peat smoldering in a test bench. Peat samples with …
