Abstract
The aim of the work is to study the possibility of replacing wood sawdust pellets with grain at the heating systems. Due to the energy crisis experienced in the winter of 2022-2023, when the price of used pellets increased by 300% compared to the previous year, when in some periods wooden pallets disappeared from commerce, the study of the replacement of the energy sources with which the small power domestic boiler were designed to operate on wooden pellets is justified. It is known that corn has a high calorific value. Due to this fact in the present work the possibility of using corn and the effects of its use on boiler with pellets that do not have in the specifications the fact that they can also work with any granular biomass are studied.
