Tylš, Pavel
Manual debarking of logs in Thai mangrove forest is being implemented for the purpose of charcoal production. In the local conditions, workers debark the harvested logs with homemade mallets made from mangrove wood. The thesis compares this local accustomed method with two other imported methods known in Europe, drawknife debarking and peeling spud debarking. Two basic criteria saying about the effectivity of debarking, i.e. time of debarking particular logs and the difficulty were investigated. The difficulty was investigated with measuring the pulse rate and blood saturation with oxygen of the worker during debarking works. Measurements took place in mangrove forest in Thailand and were realized with the help of Department of Forest Engineering, Faculty of Forestry from the Kasetsart University.
