The bamboo forest area is expanding nationwide, so even here on remote islands like Yugeshima island neglected bamboo forest is a problem. In order to make effective use of bamboo, it is desirable to use cascade such as primary use such as building materials and bamboo pellets, secondary use such as bamboo charcoal, tertiary use as material of reefs. In addition to exploring such usage, we focused on utilizing bamboo as bamboo charcoal in this research and produced a higher weight type thermogravimetric analyzer for evaluating the carbonization process of biomass. We also measured the thermal decomposition characteristics of carbonized bamboo in this process, conducted carbonization experiment, and evaluated bamboo charcoal.
