Abstract

The using possibilities of secondary raw materials produced during the liquid biofuels production such as bioethanol and biodiesel, and also those produced during solid fuel production was determined. The study presents combustion of distiller's dried grain with solubles (DDGS) and pressing refuse of rapeseed methyl ester (RME). The combustion was done in gravimetric oven, according to the standards, under the laboratory conditions. Combustion heat of samples was measured with calorimeter IKA C5000. The results show the average combustion heat of 20.91 MJ/kg for DDGS and 18.996 MJ/kg for RME. Results are chronologically presented in tables and figures.
