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

Find a chart of wood densities here: http://www.simetric.co.uk/si_wood.htm

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.

How long does it take a tree to respire 1 ton of co2?

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
