In this second part of the study, the ability of the dehydration unit to fix the organic compounds released by wood is evaluated in the particular case of green fir drying at 70° C. The organic compounds are condensed in a bubbling device and analysed with a flame ionisation detector. From these analysis are deduced the mass fraction of organic compounds in the gas phase, the mass flow rate of these compounds released by wood and the one absorbed by TEG. These last results permit to define an equivalent efficiency of the absorber to capture organic compounds present in the drying air.
