Studies related to biomass production, with a focus on energy uses for short-rotation woody
crops (SRWCs), are limited in Latin America. The research that is available relates to a …

Bioenergy is one of the alternatives to reduce the dependence of global energy on fossil
fuels. The short rotation coppice (SRC) of eucalypt species appears as an interesting option …

High stocking short rotation plantations provide high yields for bioenergy use and have been
adopted worldwide, especially in tropical areas. This silvicultural approach might alter …

Studies on the use of biomass from short rotation coppices for briquette production as a
sustainable biofuel have been scarce in the literature. This study investigated the effects of …

Modified foragers represent a cost-effective option for harvesting high-density short-rotation
energy plantations. However, new energy plantations grown in Brazil far exceed the …

Harvesting in short rotation coppice (SRC) systems occurs every 2–4 years with
recommendations focusing on dormant season harvest. Because harvesting occurs on short …

The international market of woody biomass for bioenergy is expected to have a major role in
future global scenarios aligning with a 2 or 1.5° C target. However, the quantification of the …

Abstract Short Rotation Coppices (SRC) can be a suitable solution for the production of
biomass, mainly due to the easy-to-harvest good-quality feedstock. Besides technical, social …

According to some studies, the use of forest biomass for the generation of electric power
and/or heat would result in a significant reduction in the emission of greenhouse gases. This …

The identification of optimal rotation length of forest crops considering production and
environmental perspectives is a major concern for eucalypts since plantations costs are high …
