TG-DTG-DSC thermal analysis technology was applied to study the combustion characteristics of 7 kinds of biomass charcoals, namely:sasanqua-epicarp charcoal, chestnut-epicarp charcoal, kiskatom-epicarp charcoal, fir-wood charcoal, pine-wood charcoal, straw charcoal and bamboo charcoal. Results of research on TG,DTG,DSC curves of 7 kinds of biomass charcoals show that the initial mass-loss temperatures of sasanqua-epicarp charcoal, chestnut-epicarp charcoal, kiskatom-epicarp charcoal are lower than other biomass charcoals, and peak-appearing time of DTG and DSC curves of these three biomass charcoal are also earlier, while the value of maximal heat-release of these three biomass charcoals are relatively low. Results of study on parameters of combustion characteristics of all biomass charcoals show that sasanqua-epicarp charcoal, chestnut-epicarp charcoal, straw-charcoal and kiskatom-epicarp charcoal have lower ignition temperature, which are 351.8, 356.7, 375.3, 392.6℃ respectively. There are slight difference on parameters of maximum rate of combustion and flammability index among all kinds biomass charcoals. The difference in value between burn-out residue and burning residue is different in seven kinds of biomass charcoals. Kiskatom-epicarp charcoal has the biggest difference in value of 14.91%. Pine charcoal has the minimum difference in value of 0.99%. Based on thermo physical and chemical characteristics of 7 kinds biomass charcoals it was shown that fir-wood charcoal, pine-wood charcoal and bamboo charcoal are suitable as basic charcoal, while sasanqua-epicarp charcoal, chestnut-epicarp charcoal and kiskatom-epicarp charcoal are suitable as auxiliary combustion-additives.
