Abstract

Fosilna goriva su ograničena, a njihovo korištenje negativno utječe na okoliš. Biomasa je najčešće korišten obnovljivi izvor energije. Poljoprivrednu biomase je moguće koristiti kao primarno gorivo ili pretvoriti u sekundarno. Miscanthus x giganteus, Panicum virgatum i Sida hermaphrodita neke su od najznačajnijih poljoprivrednih kultura za proizvodnju biomase u svrhu dobivanja energije. Odlikuju ih dug životni vijek, visoki prinosi, uzgoj na tlima lošije kvalitete itd. U svijetu, uključujući Republiku Hrvatsku, provedena su brojna istraživanja nad tim kulturama. U Hrvatskoj su postavljeni pokusi na više različitih lokacija na kojima vladaju različiti agroekološki uvjeti. Provedeni su razni pokusi poput utjecaja sadnog materijala, gnojidbe, roka žetve i dr. na prinos i sastavnice prinosa. Dobiveni rezultati su uspoređeni s rezultatima raznih svjetskih i europskih istraživanja. Zaključeno je da su prinosi utvrđeni u RH na razini onih iz ostatka svijeta i da je moguće proizvesti velike količine kvalitetne biomase u različitim agroekološkim uvjetima RH.

Abstract (english)

Fossil fuels are limited, and their use has a negative impact on the environment. Biomass is the most widely used renewable energy source. Agricultural biomass can be used as primary fuel or converted into secondary fuels. Miscanthus x giganteus, Panicum virgatum and Sida hermaphrodita are some of the most important agricultural crops for the production of biomass for the purpose of obtaining energy. They are characterized by a long lifespan, high yields, growing on soils of poorer quality, etc. Numerous studies have been conducted on these crops in the world, including the Republic of Croatia. Experiments were set up in Croatia at several different locations with different agroecological conditions. Various experiments were conducted, such as the influence of planting material, fertilization, harvest time, etc. on yield and yield components. The obtained results were compared with the results of various world and European researches. It was concluded that the yields determined in the Republic of Croatia are at the level of those from the rest of the world and that it is possible to produce large quantities of quality biomass in the different agroecological conditions of the Republic of Croatia.
