Conference participants from industry, consulting firms, and government focused their discussion on solutions for problems of using wood and bark residues for fuel. These proceedings include the presentations and a transcript of subsequent discussions. The introductory speaker discussed the place of wood and bark residues in the possible solution to the energy crisis and compared the fuel characteristics of residues with those of oil. Eleven papers are included: ''Basic Concepts of Combustion Related to Hogged Fuels''; ''The Energex System for Energy Recovery''; ''Utilization of Wood Waste in Regional Energy-Recovery Plants''; ''Oil from Wood Wastes''; ''Can We Afford to Borrow on the Future''; ''Some Design and Economic Considerations in Wood Waste Burning''; ''Criteria for Acceptance of Wood and Bark Burning Systems''; ''Some Aspects of Wood Waste Preparation for Use as a Fuel''; ''Special Environmental Problems Originated by Bark from Saltwater-borne Logs''; and ''One Company's Experience in Using Wet Scrubbers on Hog-Fuel-Fired Boilers.''
