Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9804393A1] A method for heat-treating wood, including at least one step of maintaining the wood to be treated at a predetermined temperature in a treatment chamber in order to destroy at least partially the hemicellulose of the wood. The method comprises monitoring the current amount of at least one of the gases given off during hemicellulose decomposition throughout said step, and stopping the treatment step once said amount begins to reach a substantially constant value.
