BENITEZ, Julieta B.; VALLEJOS, María E.; AREA, María C.  e  FELISSIA, Fernando E.. Chemical characterization and morphology of moringa oleifera's wood as potential raw material for biorefineries. Rev. cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2018, n.30, pp.1-12. ISSN 1851-7587.

The growing demand for forest biomass has motivated the culture of forest plantations of short rotation in developed and in developing countries. Moringa oleifera is a fast-growing species that is to a wide range of soils. The incorporation of this species as forest cultures in silvopastoral systems would allow the use of seeds and leaves as forage and as low-cost medicinal products and foods, improving the profitability of producers and the greater sustainability of the activity. The aim of this study is to know the chemical composition and morphological structure of the wood of Moringa oleifera of two different ages (3 years-old and 8 years-old) to analyze its potential as raw material for biorefineries.
