Resumo

No Brasil, tem-se disponível grande quantidade de biomassas que podem ser alternativas para produção de pellets, e com o mercado em constante ascensão, a busca por matérias-primas com potencial para geração de energia torna-se uma necessidade em atendimento ao setor. Eucalyptus sp. e Pinus sp., são as principais fontes de fornecimento de madeira no Brasil. Portanto, o objetivo principal deste estudo foi avaliar a qualidade de pellets produzidos com diferentes proporções de misturas entre partículas de madeiras de reflorestamento, Eucalyptus sp. e Pinus sp. As porcentagens de eucalipto em relação ao pinus foram: 0, 10, 20, 50, 80 e 90%. Foi realizada a caracterização das biomassas. Os pellets foram produzidos em matriz peletizadora horizontal de escala laboratorial com sistema de vapor aquecido. Os pellets foram avaliados quanto às propriedades físicas, químicas, energéticas e mecânicas. O poder calorífico superior diminuiu com o aumento da porcentagem de Eucalyptus sp. na mistura. Os teores de cloro e cinzas estão dentro da faixa estabelecida pelos parâmetros internacionais para pellets de madeira. A durabilidade mecânica média dos pellets produzidos foi de 93%. Os pellets com 80% de eucalipto e 20% de pinus destacaram-se quanto à densidade, taxa de compactação e propriedades mecânicas.
