This review considers the pollutants formed by the combustion of solid biomass fuels. The
availability and potential use of solid biofuels is first discussed. This is followed by the …

Exploiting biomass energy is a promising option to reduce CO 2 emissions, owing to its
renewability and carbon neutrality. The knowledge of biomass ignition becomes critical for …

Biomass, as a renewable energy source, is available worldwide, is carbon neutral, and can
be converted to various types of products depending on the market and on the specific …

The aim of this work is to provide a wide database of kinetic data for the most common
biomass by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermogravimetry (DTG). Due …

Co-firing biomass is the principal means of mitigating the future energy crisis by expanding
the use of renewable energy. Oxy-fuel combustion is the most capable technologies for …

Potassium and sodium are well-known catalysts in the thermal reactions of biomass. This
paper develops a modified Langmuir-Hinshelwood expression linking the rate of thermal …

This paper is concerned with the kinetics of the thermal decomposition of a woody biomass,
willow. It addresses two questions. First, what method of data analysis is appropriate for …

Fast pyrolysis of biomass (wood, straw, rice husk) and its major components (cellulose,
hemicellulose, lignin) was conducted in a wire mesh reactor. The aim of this study was to …

This paper presents analysis of pine and sunflower husk pellet combustion and their co-
combustion with oats in a domestic biomass boiler. Selected physical and chemical …

The most urgent concern confronting the steel industry in the twenty-first century is climate
change. The Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is the second most common process in steelmaking …
