Agricultural biomass as an energy resource has several environmental and economical advantages potential to substantially contribute present days’ fuel demands. Currently, thermochemical processes for agricultural transformation seem promising feasible. The relative advantage of conversion over others is due higher productivity compatibility with existing infrastructure facilities. However, the majority these are still under development phase trying secure a market share various challenges,...
Biomass pyrolysis and the valorization of co-products (biochar, bio-oil, syngas) could be a sustainable management solution for agricultural forest residues. Depending on its properties, biochar amended to soil improve fertility. Moreover, is expected mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, if C/N ratio lower than 30, sequestrating carbon O/Corg H/Corg ratios are 0.2 0.7, respectively. However, yield properties influenced biomass feedstock operating parameters. The...
The worldwide repercussions of COVID-19 sparked important research efforts, yet the detailed contribution aerosols in transmission SARS-CoV-2 has not been elucidated. In an attempt to quantify viral environment infected patients, we collected 100 air samples acute care hospital rooms hosting 22 patients over course nearly two months using three different sampling protocols. Quantification by RT-qPCR (ORF1b) led 11 positive from 6 patient (Ct < 40). Viral cultures were negative. No...
The influence of operating conditions on the yield and quality bio-oil obtained from black spruce wood mixture was studied using an auger reactor. Fast pyrolysis optimization through response surface analysis carried out with four variables: temperature, solids residence time, nitrogen flow, temperature first stage condensation. optimal for production were 555°C, 129 s, 6.9 L/min, 120°C, respectively. product yields 38.61 wt.% biochar, 25.39 liquid, 36.52 non-condensable gases. Two liquid...
