Characterisation of Feedstocks - D13 Synthesis Report of Phase 1 and Phase 2

The primary objective of this 2015/16/17 Project was to provide an understanding of UK produced biomass properties, how these vary and what causes this variability. This document contains the Appendices to the Final Report from the second Phase (2016/17) of the Characterisation of Feedstocks (CofF) project, Deliverable D12. This deliverable (D12) is one of three to be provided under the second phase (2016/17) of the Characterisation of Feedstocks Project. It is supported by the Excel dataset (D11). A synthesis and summary of the findings from the whole project, Phases 1 plus 2, is provided separately (Deliverable D13). The purpose of this deliverable D12 is to reportthe findings from the 2016/17 investigations into the impact of harvest time on the properties of UK produced Short Rotation Coppice (SRC) willow and Miscanthus;the impact of variety on UK produced SRC willow properties, and;the impact of four different types of commonly used storage types over time on UK produced Miscanthus properties.

本2015/2016/2017年度项目的核心目标是阐明英国本土生产的生物质的各项特性、特性的变化规律及其影响因素。本文件为原料特性表征（Characterisation of Feedstocks, 简称CofF）项目第二阶段（2016/2017年）最终报告的附录，即可交付成果D12。本可交付成果D12为原料特性表征项目第二阶段（2016/2017年）计划交付的三项成果之一，配套数据集D11以Excel格式提供。针对第一、第二阶段整个项目的研究结果的综合总结将以可交付成果D13的形式单独发布。本可交付成果D12旨在汇报2016/2017年度的三项研究发现：收获时间对英国本土生产的短轮伐期矮林（Short Rotation Coppice, 简称SRC）柳及芒草特性的影响；品种对英国本土生产的SRC柳特性的影响；以及四种常用存储方式随时间推移对英国本土生产的芒草特性的影响。
