Analysis of optimal temperature, pressure and binder quantity for the production of biocarbon pellet to be used as a substitute for coke

2019

In order to contribute to the decarbonization of the economy, efficient alternatives to coal and coke should be found not only in the power sector but also in the industrial sectors (like steel, silicon and manganese production) in which coal and coke are used as a reductant and for steel production also as a fuel. To this aim many research works have been focused on the development of a coke substitute based on woody biomass and known as “biocarbon”. There are still barriers to overcome, among them: the biocarbon low density, poor mechanical strength and high reactivity. In this paper a new biocarbon production methodology is proposed, based on: pyrolysis at 600 °C, densification (using py…

Biochar from Wood Chips and Corn Cobs for Adsorption of Thioflavin T and Erythrosine B.

2022

Biochars from wood chips (WC) and corn cobs (CC) were prepared by slow pyrolysis and used for sorption separation of erythrosine B (EB) and thioflavin T (TT) in batch experiments. Biochar-based adsorbents were extensively characterized using FTIR, XRD, SEM-EDX, and XPS techniques. The kinetics studies revealed that adsorption on external surfaces was the rate-limiting step for the removal of TT on both WC and CC biochar, while intraparticle diffusion was the rate-limiting step for the adsorption of EB. Maximal experimental adsorption capacities Qmaxexp of TT reached 182 ± 5 (WC) and 45 ± 2 mg g−1 (CC), and EB 12.7 ± 0.9 (WC) and 1.5 ± 0.4 mg g−1 (CC),…

Scientific and methodical foundations of heat saving of rural territories on the basis of use of local biomass

2018

W ostatnich latach gaz ziemny na Ukrainie, a w szczególności w regionie połtawskim,wykorzystywany jest najczęściej do ogrzewania prywatnych domów. Niestety co roku państwo podnosi cenę gazu. Koszty ogrzewania stają się dla mieszkańców wsi dużym obciążeniem. Wcześniej na wsi tradycyjnie budowano domy o dużej powierzchni. Dlatego obecnie wspólnoty terytorialne szukają alternatywnych sposobów ogrzewania. W celu oszczędzania ciepła ważnymi dla nich stają się zagadnienia związane z izolacją budynków mieszkalnych, zakładów produkcyjnych. Głównym celem artykułu jest analiza możliwości wykorzystania biomasy jako materiału termoizolacyjnego oraz źródła energii alternatywnej. Przedstawiono doświadcze…
