Abstract
The paper summarises results of several thermogravimetric experiments performed with a selected group of eight different waste biomaterials under heating rates from 2 to 50 K min−1. The enthalpy of materials tested in the experiments varied from around 180 up to almost 700 kJ kg−1. Certain conclusions concerning mainly the dependence of the heat exchange under the chosen conditions of the pyrolysis are drawn on the basis of measured values.
