One Cord Of Conventional Wood And One Cord Of Densified Wood, Are They Equal?
No, these two products differ in several aspects. Firstly, a cord of wood is very difficult to compare in terms of volume, whether it is with another similar cord of wood or with the same cord of wood re-corded. It is more difficult to compare these two different products. The only aspect for comparison between conventional wood and densified wood is the calorific value released per unit of volume or weight. Market trends seem to reveal that 300 to 350 pounds of densified wood releases more or less the same number of BTUs as a cord of conventional wood (4 X 8 X 16) with a rate of humidity between 35 and 40%. This calculation evidently takes into consideration the loss of heat that the combustion of conventional wood creates due to the energy required to evaporate the water in the wood. Therefore, the volume of 325 pounds of densified wood is greatly inferior to that of a cord of conventional wood.
