Biomass-based pellet is an important source of renewable energy. In this study, to obtain the high-quality fuel via densification pruned branches fruit trees, we investigated optimization blending ratios for different raw materials using from jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), which a widely distributed waste biomass resource in China. Through characterization and pellets, effects on storage, tran...
