Evaluation of logging systems designed to recover harvesting residues for energy
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6882545
Computer simulations of three different harvesting systems on four different timber stands are described. The simulations include the production of conventional timber products from the boles of the harvested trees and chips from the limbs and tops. Functional and total costs of production per ton for products and chips are given. An analysis of the suitability of the harvesting systems's abilities to retrieve forest residues within a competitive economy is made. 21 references, 3 figures, 25 tables.
