The aim of this study is, on the one hand learn about this type of wood, and on the other hand, is to study the processes the thermophysical characterization of araucaria wood from the city of el Jadida, Morocco, and on the other hand, will study the processes related to evaporation. Wood is defined industrially…

The goal of this research work is first to investigate the comparison between a batch and a continuous pyrolysis reactor (at 500, 550 and 600 °C) and the eventual differences and similarities that are obtained by analysing the obtained liquid and gas compositions. All the products formed were examined: liquids by GC-MS/FID and Karl Fischer…

Nigeria has one of the highest deforestation rates in the world, due mainly to felling of trees for fuelwood and charcoal production. This challenge could be managed if agricultural waste briquettes are used to augment the fuelwood demand for cooking energy provisioning. Energy density of biomass fuels can be raised by blending with coal, but…

All trucks heading into the paper mill MONDI, Slovakia, have to pass an automatic security check. It controls if storage of its wood load meets all standards of safety. Each truck is scanned by a group of 2D scanners. After that the inspection of timber load is done by a software with use of the…

Production of garri (edible processed and granulated form of cassava) and sustaining the production process has become so laborious, time consuming, and predisposes one to some form of danger, especially as it concerns the hot fire that one is disposed to during the process. In west African tradition, where this garri serves as one of…

The efficiency of a plasma-aided finishing process, namely capillary impregnation, can be predicted only by setting two basic parameters of the real wood porous surface and the actual impregnating solution – surface free energy and surface tension. In general, the following processing efficiency parameter was found and the rule is true: “The plasma aided or…
