Abstract
An investigation of the management of sliced straw, used as fuel. Transport systems for getting the straw from the piles in the field to the plant, including commercial transport to the ``pellet factory``, are discussed. A vehicle for conveying wood chips (90 m{sup 3}), containers, and loading on stationary compactors, were also tested. It appears that here the costs can be compared with the transport of hesston bales. Problems arising when the sliced straw arrives at the plant are discussed, and recommendations on how to solve them are given. It is explained how to handle straw with a 30% water content. Experience was gained as to how existing wood-chip fuelled plants could be converted to straw combustion. It is concluded that costs could be significantly reduced in relation to the handling of sliced straw, also in relation to its transportation. (AB).
