Biomass is considered to be one of the most easily available and high-potential renewable power sources. Pyrolysis and combustion are the most common ways of utilizing biomass. A complex multiple-criteria analysis to identify the most promising technology of using various types of biomass has never been previously performed. The study is focused on comparing two typical techniques of utilizing agricultural and forestry biomass for bioenergy and valorization. In this paper, the direct combustion and pyrolysis of biomass were experimentally studied. The environmental and energy performance parameter of the investigated processes were determined for separate biomass components (leaves, straw, sawdust) and a group of mixtures from them. It was established that the biomass mixtures combustion has better environmental characteristics. Thus, the main anthropogenic emissions decreased by 8–66%. In addition to that, the pyrolysis of a biomass mixture from a group of components has a 30% higher yield of combustible gases. The analysis of relative efficiency indicators of two processes where biomass was used as an energy resource showed that a biomass-derived composite fuel is more efficient than its individual components.

生物质被认为是最容易获得和高潜力的可再生能源之一。热解和燃烧是利用生物质的最常见方式。以前从未进行过复杂的多标准分析，以确定使用各种类型生物质的最有前途的技术。该研究的重点是比较利用农业和林业生物质进行生物能源和价值化的两种典型技术。本文对生物质的直接燃烧和热解进行了实验研究。研究过程的环境和能源性能参数是针对单独的生物质成分（树叶、稻草、锯末）和一组来自它们的混合物确定的。确定生物质混合物燃烧具有更好的环境特性。因此，主要的人为排放量减少了 8-66%。除此之外，从一组组分热解生物质混合物的可燃气体产量高出 30%。对使用生物质作为能源的两个过程的相对效率指标的分析表明，生物质衍生的复合燃料比其单个成分更有效。
