The moisture content of firewood determines how it burns and how much heat is released. Unseasoned (green) wood moisture content varies by the species; green wood may weigh 70 to 100 percent more than seasoned wood due to water content. Typically, seasoned (dry) wood has 20% or less moisture content.
Split tiger maple log shows the physical waviness. When wood from a tree with undulating grain is split, the wood splits along the undulations, so that the split log shows, and one can feel, the physical waviness. Tiger maple sawn flat and stained. The stain accentuates the alternating flat and end grain of the wood.

The moisture content of grains is an essential property in food storage. The moisture content that is safe for long-term storage is 12% for corn, sorghum, rice and wheat and 11% for soybean [1] At a constant relative humidity of air, the EMC will drop by about 0.5% for every increase of 10 °C air temperature.

A process of thermal modification of pressurized wood with a medium moisture content was described in a paper by Burmester in 1973. [3] Today there are five different thermal modification processes. Finland produced Thermowood also known as Premium wood. France uses the Les Bois Perdure Retification process, the Netherlands uses the Plato ...
Small firewood logs drying on-site. For some purposes, wood is not dried at all, and is used green. Often, wood must be in equilibrium with the air outside, as for construction wood, or the air indoors, as for wooden furniture. Wood is air-dried or dried in a purpose built oven . Usually the wood is sawn before drying, but sometimes the log is ...
