Abstract

The lignin (LN) contents of 13 biomass samples were correlated with their fixed carbon (FC) contents. There was a highly significant correlation between the percentage of LN (PLN) of the biomass sample and the percentage of FC (PFC). The PLN of the biomass sample as a function of the PFC was correlated using the following equations:
