Abstract: Based on the overseas researches and experiences of engineering practices, the mechanisms of biomass self-heating, the critical influencing factors, the potential hazards, the protective measures and experience were systematically reviewed. The purpose is suggested for biomass fired power plants as well as other large-scale biomass users to prevent self-heating, spontaneous combustion and fire during fuel storage.

Key words: Biomass fuels, Self-heating, Spontaneous Combustion, Preventive measures
