Characterisation of Feedstocks - D6 Final Report (Phase 1) Appendix 4: Miscanthus IVF maps

This document contains maps of the test Miscanthus field showing the different plots analysed and their relative yield of in terms of moisture content, net and gross calorific value, dry ash content and its variability, dry nitrogen content, dry chlorine, barium, beryllium, chromium, cobalt, copper, molybdenum, nickel, vanadium, zinc, arsenic, antimony, mercury, cadmium, lead, fluorine, bromine, aluminium, calcium, iron, potassium, manganese, sodium, phosphorus, silicon and titanium. This document is one of the 13 appendices to the Final Report from the first Phase (2015/16) of the Characterisation of Feedstocks (CofF) project, the primary purpose of which is to provide an understanding of UK produced biomass properties, how these vary and what causes this variability. The purpose of this report plus its related parts is to report the variability in feedstock propertiesof UK produced energy biomass, the causes of these variations and the relationship between the feedstock properties and the provenance data collected. Five feedstocks were studied: Miscanthus, willow short rotation coppice (SRC), poplar SRC, poplar grown as short rotation forests (SRF), and spruce SRF, with poplar and Sitka spruce selected to represent broadleaved and coniferous biomass crops respectively. Provenance data include site properties (such as general climate zone and soil chemistry), the conditions at the time of sample collection, and past management of the site and crop with soil samples also collected for analysis. The feedstock samples were analysed in UKAS accredited laboratories.本文件包含试验芒草（Miscanthus）田的地图，标注了所有被分析的样区，以及各分析样区的相对产量和对应的含水率、净热值、总热值、干灰分含量及其变异性、干态氮含量、干态氯、钡、铍、铬、钴、铜、钼、镍、钒、锌、砷、锑、汞、镉、铅、氟、溴、铝、钙、铁、钾、锰、钠、磷、硅、钛等指标的检测数据。本文件为原料表征（Characterisation of Feedstocks, 简称CofF）项目第一阶段（2015/2016年）最终报告的13份附录之一。该项目的核心目标是阐明英国本土生产的生物质的属性特征、其波动规律及波动成因。本报告及其相关附件的宗旨在于汇报英国本土能源生物质原料属性的变异性、变异性的成因，以及原料属性与所采集的来源数据之间的关联。本次研究共涵盖5种原料：芒草（Miscanthus）、柳树短轮伐期矮林（Short Rotation Coppice, 简称SRC）、杨树SRC、作为短轮伐期森林（Short Rotation Forest, 简称SRF）种植的杨树，以及云杉SRF；其中杨树与西加云杉（Sitka spruce）分别作为阔叶类与针叶类生物质作物的代表。所采集的来源数据涵盖场地属性（如通用气候分区与土壤化学性质）、样本采集时的现场条件，以及场地与作物的既往管理情况，同时还同步采集了土壤样本用于相关分析。所有原料样本均在获得英国皇家认可委员会（UKAS, United Kingdom Accreditation Service）认可的实验室中完成检测分析。
