[Gasification] Charcoal: Char Analyses?

[Mark & Elena Gallmeier]

Dear Ed,

Thanks for the prompt reply.  The BEF link to the Nertherlands Energy 
Research Center Phyllis database is good.

http://www.ecn.nl/phyllis/search.asp

Searching on 'char' provides char data, and also a perfect example of what 
I'm looking for at the bottom of the search page.  These are two analyses of 
willow char pyrolyzed at 350C and 550C.  This is what I'm looking for, in as 
many wood species as possible, with as many data points as possible within 
each species.  Either by temperature of pyrolysis or by fixed carbon 
content.

Let no one think their char analysis data points are irrelevant.  So far 
I've not a master char reference by species anywhere else online.  Citations 
for printed references are welcome, too.

And thanks also to the other - here anonymous - individual who emailed me a 
private reference pdf.

Regards,

Mark
