Sorghum is expected as a fuel crop. This study investigated the relationships between the heating value and the contents of the main components, that is cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin for sorghum. The ash-free content of each component was estimated by measuring the ash content in the residue in each process of the component analysis. Multiple regression analyses were carried out using the ash-free contents of the three components as the explanatory variables and the heating value as the objective variable. As a result, a highly accurate correlation equation to predict the heating value from the component composition was obtained.
