Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAssessment of Efficient Thermal Conversion Technologies and HHV from Compositional Characteristics of Cassava Peelings, Plantain Peelings and Corn CobsSamomssa Inna, Oumarou Amadou Amadou, Jiokap Nono Yvette et al.The understanding of compositional characteristics permits to predict the efficient thermal conversion technologies and Higher Heating Value (HHV). Although HHV can be determined directly, many models have been proposed for HHV prediction. They are based on proximate, ultimate, and structural analysis and require much data collected. The present work assesses to predict efficient thermal conversion technologies and HHV of the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2022 · 10,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImplementation of Species-Transport Model in Numerical Simulation to Predict the Performance of Downdraft Gasifier with Biomass BlendsMurugan P. C., G. Arun Prasad, S. Joseph SekharThe demand for energy from biomass gasification is increasing due to the depletion of fossil fuels and serious environmental issues. Due to this, usage of individual biomass in a gasifier is not sufficient to meet the demand in rural areas. However, an enormous study have been reported on the gasifier with single biomass as working fuel. In addition, only a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 11 Sep 2019 · 7,639 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Different Cycles of Thermal Fatigue in Steel Metallurgical Aspects ASTM SA-516 Grade 60Eder Hermes Bicharra, Jorge Luis Braz Medeiros, Luciano Volcanoglo Biehl et al.The ASTM SA-516 steel has applications in compact steam boilers of low and medium temperature and pressure. Deterioration can show when exposed to high temperatures due to fuel gases burning. Failures detected by inspections done in a frequency required by standard on the boilers. Among the main failure mechanisms found in materials used in boilers, creep, corrosion, when subjected to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,985 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecycle of Plastic Bag Wastes with Organic Wastes to Energy for RDF ProductionsRithy Kan, Chatchai Kungkajit, Thaniya KaosolThis paper studies the utilization potential of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) approach to recover the discarded plastics from Hatyai solid waste disposal site in Songkhla province, Thailand. The excavated plastic bag wastes from the closure landfill of Hatyai, unused plastic bag wastes and waste residues are the raw materials for RDF productions. The raw materials are characterized for proximate analysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 30 Dec 2017 · 8,721 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization and Evaluation of Charcoal Briquettes Using Banana Peel and Banana Bunch Waste for Household HeatingSumrit Mopoung, Vijitr UdeyeThe charcoal briquettes from banana peel and banana bunch wastes from dried banana industry for household heating were characterized and evaluated. A 200 L pyrolyzer was used for charcoal and wood vinegar production at 350°C pyrolysis temperature. The percent yield of charcoal and wood vinegar were determined. The effects of clay binder (0-15% w/w) on the properties of charcoal briquettes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 12 Apr 2017 · 23,049 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Fatty Acid Profile in Some Macroalgae in Relation to the Environmental Conditions for Biodiesel ProductionNayrah Abdel Naby Shaltout, Nihal Galal Shams El-DinIn this study, fatty acids profile was determined in four algal species; namely Ulva fasciata (Chlorophyta), Corallina mediterranea, Corallina officinalis and Pterocladiella capillacea (Rhodophyta) which were collected from two sites (Abu-Qir Bay and Eastern Harbor) located on the Egyptian Mediterranean Sea during the four seasons in the period (2011-2012). In addition, nutrient content in the algal species (total nitrogen and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 14 Dec 2015 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Lignin Fraction Extracted from Brazilian Energy CropsDiogo José Horst, Jhon Jairo Ramírez Behainne, Pedro Paulo de Andrade Junior, Luís Filippe SerpeThis study quantifies the extraction performance and some properties of the lignin obtained from six crops with potential for generating thermal energy in Brazil. A full factorial design (22) with four replicates including two extraction methods and two particles size distributions was adopted for assessing the fraction of lignin, as well as its Higher Heating Value (HHV) and composition given … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2015 · 7,581 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINFLUENCE OF REACTION TEMPERATURE AND REACTION TIME ON PRODUCT FROM HYDROTHERMAL TREATMENT OF BIOMASS RESIDUEJakaphong Kongpanya, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat TeekasapThailand is facing with problems associated with biomass residue such as palm oil residues (oil palm trunks, oil palm fronds, empty fruit bunches, shells and fibers). Biomass is promising source for the production of an array of energy-related produts including, liquid, solid and gaseous fuels, heat, chemicals electricity and other materials. Therefore, the use of biomass for energy is not … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 2 Jun 2014 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Enhancement of Producer Gas From Cassava Rhizome Using High Temperature Air-Steam Downdraft GasificationWorapot Ngamchompoo, Kittichai TriratanasirichaiHigh Temperature Air-Steam Gasification (HTAG) was performed on a bench-scale downdraft gasifier.
