Moulds occurrence in woodchipsOriginal Paper

The research, whose results are presented, is aimed at determination of development of moulds number in wood chips under different storage temperatures. The experiments were carried out with the moisture of samples 65%, 22% and 1%. During the long-term storage the effect of water content in material on development of moulds can be recorded. The risks linked to mould occurrence can be considerably eliminated by reduction of water content.

Keywords: microbiology; hygienic risks; microscopical fibrous fungi; storage of biofuels
