MORAES, Mariana Dianese Alves de et al. Bioenergy with wood residues from Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis. []. , 42, 2, pp.241-250. ISSN 0871-018X.  https://doi.org/10.19084/rca.17170.

Forest species of the genus Pinus are the most used in the wood processing industries in Brazil, with the significant generation of residues during the process of wood. The objective of this study was to evaluate the energetic characteristics of the residue of Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis at 40 years and its application in the form of briquette. The proximate analyses, heating value, bulk and energetic density of the wood residue was carried out to subsequent production of briquettes and evaluation of its energetic and physico-mechanical characteristics. The briquetes of wood residues of  P. caribaea var.  hondurensis exhibit physico-mechanical and energetic characteristics that prove to be a viable source for energetic use, with energy density of19,072 MJ.m^-3.
