SUMMARY: The Croatian wood processing industry generates significant
quantities of different wood waste. Large arising of waste wood is being produced
in various forms; some 55% of incoming wood may not appear as
processed timber. Most often, waste wood is being re-used only partially for
covering the basic needs for heat in production (wood drying) and for heating.
Significant part of this wood waste is being discarded in a variety of ways,
which draws additional costs and impact on the environment. The exploiting
of these quantities of wood waste could fully cover the energy consumption of
wood industry processes. The existing power production units in this industry
are mostly obsolete and out of order. Exploiting of the wood waste in Croatia
could bring the number of benefits:


the increase of energy efficiency,


the use of domestic energy source and the possibility of developing the
domestic technology,


decrease of the impact on environment,
disposal of the wood waste that is otherwise regarded as trash.
This paper deals with detailed results analyze of state of the art of wood
waste usage and energy potential in the Zagreb county. The analysis was conducted
as a part of´prefectsibility study of CHP (combined heat and power)
plant project around Velika Gorica. A great advantage for project realization
is existing heat network in Velika Gorica. A successful realization could encourage
launching other similar projects ofbiomass use within wood industry
in Croatia. The most important part of the analysis was an interview, which
was carried out in almost all wood processing factories and sawmills in the
county. Analyzed were all relevant factors as annual production and capacity,
amount of generated wood waste, current usage of wood waste (own boiler
room, briquetting, selling, composting, disposal and similar), annual need for
energy (both electricity and heat) and existing infrastructure. The interview
was carried out in the first half of the year 1999, and relevant data about timber
processing and generated amount of wood waste are shown for 1997 and
1998 and estimated for the year 2000. Given results show significant, yet
unused energy potential of wood waste in Zagreb county as well as non-adequate
and serious state of its management.


Interviewed were more than 40 wood processing factories and sawmills in
the county where 31175 tons of wood waste was produced in 1998 which gives
energy potential of 0,33 PJ. Additionally, forest residues from the Zagreb
county forests represent significant energy potential.
