Abstract

The paper presents the characteristics and analysis of the usefulness of selected biomass, obtained from different plant spices (Silphium perfoliatum L., Helianthus salicifolius A. Dietr., Sida hermaphrodita Rusby). The botanical characteristics of the species surveyed from North America was presented. It has been shown that these species meet the requirements for plants intended for so called Energy crops, as they are characterized by high yield, disease and pest resistance and low habitat requirements. The basic physical properties of biomass were determined, like moisture content during harvesting, specific density, ash content, net calorific value. The paper also presents a comparison of the research results obtained by determining the fuel quality indicator. It has been shown that the best parameters are willowleaf sunflower biomass, and the worst is the biomass obtained from cup plant.
