dc.abstract.enA significant amount of logging residue is produced during roundwood harvesting. Logs are often left in forest sites due to, for example, ecological or logistical aspects. Taking into account the fact that the number of studies focused on changes in the properties of the residue is very low, it was decided to conduct research on the effect of a three-year storage period in forest stands on the chemical properties and energy potential of the wood. The research design allowed for the determination of changes during up to three years of storage. The performed analysis showed a highly negative impact on the characteristics of the material. These adverse effects were probably caused by the activity of microorganisms such as fungi and bacteria, as evidenced by the increased concentrations of ergosterol and low-molecular-weight organic acids. Moreover, it was found that wood stored for three years was characterized by a lower cellulose content; an increased percentage of lignin; a reduced content of sterols (desmosterol, stigmasterol, lanosterol and β-sitosterol) and phenolic acids; and reduced antioxidant activity, as determined with the ABTS+ method. Storing logs also led to a reduction in the energy potential of the residues, as shown by a reduction in net and gross calorific value and an increased ash content.
