Abstract (2. Language): 
Wood branches of ten hardwood species were pyrolyzed at 450C with 2.5C/minutes in a flowing N2-atmosphere. Physical and chemical properties of wood and its carbonaceous skeleton (CS) were measured. The CS properties were found to be species dependents. The ten species gave good biocarbon in considerable yields (35.82-45.23%) and were suitable for biocarbon production, especially when pyrolyzed at elevated temperatures to enhance their quality properties. Prosopis juliflora produced biocarbon with the highest yield, apparent density (0.581g/cm3), gross heat of combustion of 7673 cal/g and the lowest volumetric shrinkage (35.01 %), ash content of 0.79 %, volatile matter content of 26.5 % and fixed carbon content of 69.23 %.
