Do All Carbonized Charcoals Have the Same Chemical Structure? 1. Implications of Thermogravimetry−Mass Spectrometry Measurements
Erika Mészáros,Emma Jakab,Gábor Várhegyi,Jared Bourke,Merilyn Manley-Harris,Teppei Nunoura,Michael Jerry Antal +6 more
TL;DR: A half century ago, Rosalind Franklin identified two distinct families of organic materials: those that become graphitic during carbonization at high temperatures and those that do not as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion Kinetics of Corncob Charcoal and Partially Demineralized Corncob Charcoal in the Kinetic Regime
TL;DR: In this paper, a modern, efficient method was studied in the kinetic regime, at oxygen partial pressures of 0.2 and 1 bar by thermogravimetric experiments and their reaction kinetic modeling.
Journal ArticleDOI
Activated Carbon from Macadamia Nut Shell by Air Oxidation in Boiling Water
TL;DR: In this article, a high yield activated carbon is produced from macadamia nut shell charcoal by carbonization of the charcoal at 1173 K, air oxidation of the carbonized charcoal in boiling water (AOBW), and activation (a second carbonization) of the oxygenated carbon.
Inherently fluorescent and porous zirconiacolloids : preparation, characterization and drugadsorption studies
Lívia Naszályi Nagy,Judith Mihály,András Polyák,Balázs Debreczeni,Barbara Császár,Imola Csilla Szigyártó,András Wacha,Zsuzsanna Czégény,Emma Jakab,Szilvia Klébert,Eszter Drotár,Gabriella Dabasi,Attila Bóta,Lajos Balogh,Éva Kiss +14 more
TL;DR: It is found that DOX complexes coordinatively unsaturated Zr4+ ions without dislocating them, while carboxyl-bearing drugs interact with basic surface Zr-OH sites eliminating some of the carbonate species.
Thermal decomposition of black locust and wheat straw under torrefaction
TL;DR: In this paper, three different torrefaction temperatures were applied: 225, 250 and 300°C with one hour isothermal period, and it was found that the thermal treatment at 225°C for 1 hour modifies the thermal decomposition mechanism of the cellulose content of the sample.
