Description	Journal: Iop Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science Biomass is the largest contributing energy source in Myanmar due to low cost and environmental consequences. Myanmar annually produces 5.77 million ton of rice husk on 26.21 million ton of paddy rice production and 114,975 cubic ton of wood left in the forest on annually 365,000 ton of wood logs. Myanmar still needs more energy consumption to develop the agricultural economy and biomass energy in the future of the country although electricity supply is expected to increase to 55 percent in 2021-2022 FY. In this work, the chemical composition and energy composition of rice husk and assorted wood were determined. And then, the physicomechanical properties of rice husk pellets without doing size reduction but assorted wood pellets with size reduction were analyzed and compared these results with ISO 17225-6 and ISO 17225-2 standards. The assorted wood lignin content was higher than of rice husk. The ash content of rice husk was higher than that of assorted wood due to large amount of ash forming compounds such as silicon dioxide and potassium oxide in rice husk. The bulk density, net calorific value, and mechanical durability of assorted wood pellets were higher than that of rice husk pellets due to the larger amount of lignin in assorted wood. The physicomechanical properties of produced pellets were complied with ISO standards.
