It depends on the type of wood because the volume of wood required to make a ton varies with the density of the wood.

By my calculations (and I'm no mathematician), if you use aspen (420 kg/m3), it would take 2.15m3 of wood to equal a ton.
You need 2.5-3t raw wood material
100$ to 200$
10 gallons
2/3 of dry wood is carbon. The carbon came from carbon dioxide. Trees grow at different rates so you need to find out fast it grows to answer the question. Say the tree adds a ton of dry wood in 1 year (1 Ton Wood/Yr). That locks up 0.667 ton of carbon. The carbon came from CO2 which is 0.375 carbon by weight. Cross-multiply and divide...solve for X: 1 Ton CO2 / 0.375 Ton CO2 = X Ton Wood / 0.667 Ton Wood X = 1.77 Ton Wood Divide by the rate and you get the time: 1.77 Ton Wood / 1 Ton Wood/Yr = 1.77 Yr
A ton is a ton, it doesnt matter if its a ton of jelly beans, or a ton of bouncy balls. A ton is the same no matter what you use.
2000 lbs of anything makes a ton (feathers, wood shavings, mud etc.)
Well I would like to say a ton. Unless some of that would is not used or hjust ends up as left over pieces. So I'm going to say almost a ton.
2,000 pounds.
The rule of thumb for wood chips is that they weighs 550 pounds per cubic yard. So a ton of wood chips would equal about four cubic yards.
A ton!
A tonne of what? If we assume wood, then the tonne of wood would be larger - wood is less dense than water.
About 50
