Municipal sewage sludge contains many valuable nutrients which can be used in the cultivation of energy crops. Application of large doses of sewage sludge can be a cause of environmental pollution, especially with nutrients. The multiflora rose and the Virginia fanpetals are plants with high nutritional requirements. The use of municipal sewage sludge in the cultivation of energy crops will allow recycling the nutrients from this organic waste. The aim of the study was to evaluate the use of macroelements from municipal sewage sludge by the multiflora rose var. "Jatar" (Rosa multiflora Thunb. ex Murray) and the Virginia fanpetals (Sida hermaphrodita Rusby). Four levels of sewage sludge fertilization were applied in the 6-year field experiment: 0, 10, 20, 40, 60 Mg DM sludge ∙ ha-1. Sewage sludge was applied once before planting energy crops. Due to the low potassium content in sewage sludge, a single supplementary fertilization with 100 kg K ∙ ha-1 in the form of 40% potassium salt (KCl) was applied on each plot. The study involved the evaluation of the yield, uptake and use by energy plants of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na from sewage sludge. It was found that the increasing doses of sewage sludge significantly raised the multiflora rose and the Virginia fanpetals biomass yields. The yield of the Virginia fanpetals was one and a half times higher than that of the multiflora rose. The increasing doses of sewage sludge significantly raised the contents and uptake of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na by these plants. The highest uptake of macronutrients by the multiflora rose and the Virginia fanpetals crops was determined for 60 Mg DM ∙ ha-1 fertilization dose. The results show that the Virginia fanpetals used N, P, K, Ca, Mg, and Na from the sewage sludge to a greater extent than the multiflora rose. The analyses indicate that due to the greater yields, bioaccumulation and uptake of macronutrients, Virginia fanpetals is more effective in the ‘purification’ of the substrate from excess nutrients that may pose a threat to the environment.

The article presents the results of a study on multiflora rose, one of the energy crop plants. The yield of aerial parts was determined in a field experiment, and the calorific value and chemical composition of the biomass were determined in laboratory tests. The results were used to calculate the amount of hard coal that can be replaced by multiflora rose biomass and the air pollution emissions from combustion of coal and multiflora rose. Combustion of multiflora rose biomass from an area of 1 ha in place of hard coal with equivalent energy value was found able to reduce emissions of SO2 by 98.9%, NO2 by 27.8%, particulates by over 18% and CO by 8.5%. The actual CO2 emissions from biomass combustion proved somewhat higher than in the case of coal; however, carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere during combustion of plant biomass is equal to the amount taken in by the plants during their growing period. Therefore the CO2 2 emissions are considered to be zero.

The objective of the paper was to determine the elements of economic assessment of multiflora rose cultivation as an energy plant. A one - factor field experiment carried out in Mydlniki near Krakow in the years 2009-2013 was the object of the research. The impact of two doses of irradiation with laser beams of seedlings on the economic efficiency of multiflora rose cultivation was investigated. As a result of the research, it was stated that extensive cultivation of multiflora rose is economically profitable. The cost of seedlings (57.5%) constituted the highest share in costs of setting a plantation. A gross margin with a direct payment for one year long plantation was similar to the analogous value calculated for energy willow. Cultivation of multiflora rose may be an alternative for cultivation of energy willow especially on poor sandy soils.

Cel pracy obejmował określenie elementów oceny ekonomicznej uprawy róży wielokwiatowej jako rośliny energetycznej. W latach 2009-2013 przeprowadzono jednoczynnikowe doświadczenie polowe w Mydlnikach k. Krakowa. Badano wpływ dwóch dawek naświetlania promieniami lasera sadzonek róży wielokwiatowej na plon, wartość energetyczną i efektywność ekonomiczną róży wielokwiatowej. W wyniku badań stwierdzono, iż ekstensywna uprawa róży wielokwiatowej jest opłacalna. Największy udział w kosztach założenia plantacji stanowił koszt sadzonek. Nadwyżka bezpośrednia z dopłatą wliczona dla jednego roku trwania plantacji była zbliżona do analogicznej wartości wyliczonej dla wierzby energetycznej. Uprawa róży wielokwiatowej może być alternatywą dla uprawy wierzby energetycznej, zwłaszcza na glebach piaszczystych kompleksów żytnich.

The object of the paper was to determine the impact of laser beams treatment of the cuttings of multiflora rose on the yield of fresh and dry mass and the energy value. A one-factor field experiment was carried out in 2009-2013 in Mydlniki near Cracow. The impact of two doses of radiation of cuttings with laser beams on the yield, chemical composition and energy value of multiflora rose was investigated. As a result it was found out that radiation with laser beams did not influence the size of fresh yield of multiflora rose. However, bigger dose of laser radiation caused higher increase of dry mass concentration in the above-ground parts and a higher yield of dry mass. No significant impact of bio-stimulation of laser radiation of cuttings on the combustion heat and calorific value of multiflora rose was reported. A considerable content of sulphur in the multiflora rose biomass was reported.

Celem pracy było określenie oddziaływania naświetlania promieniami lasera sadzonek róży wielokwiatowej na plon świeżej i suchej masy oraz wartość energetyczną. Przedmiotem badań było jednoczynnikowe doświadczenie polowe przeprowadzone w latach 2009-2013 w Mydlnikach k. Krakowa. Badano wpływ dwóch dawek naświetlania sadzonek promieniami lasera na plon, skład chemiczny i wartość energetyczną róży wielokwiatowej. W wyniku badań stwierdzono, iż naświetlanie promieniami lasera nie wpłynęło na wielkość plonu świeżej masy róży wielokwiatowej, jednakże większa dawka promieniowania laserowego spowodowała wyższy przyrost suchej masy części nadziemnych oraz większy plon suchej masy. Nie stwierdzono istotnego wpływu biostymulacji promieniowaniem laserowym sadzonek na ciepło spalania i wartość opałową róży wielokwiatowej. Stwierdzono znaczną zawartość siarki w biomasie róży wielokwiatowej.
