TL;DR: In this article, seven diverse biomasses of Indian origin were characterized and pyrolyzed at 450°C to produce biochars, including rice straw, rice husk, maize stover and sugarcane biochar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinetics of sono-photooxidative degradation of poly(alkyl methacrylate)s
TL;DR: The results indicated that, irrespective of the initial PDI, the PDI during the sono-photooxidative degradation evolved to a steady state value of 1.6±0.05 for all the polymers, which was successfully predicted by the continuous distribution kinetics model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of aqueous phase recirculation on product yields and quality from hydrothermal liquefaction of rice straw.
TL;DR: Aqueous phase recirculation is a promising process intensification strategy to improve the yield and quality of the products and cost efficiency of the hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) process by replacing the fresh water used in the experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Current Status and Future Prospects of Biolubricants: Properties and Applications
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compared the properties and uses of biolubricants with conventional mineral-based lubricants, which are currently based on vegetable oils, in terms of their physicochemical and thermophysical properties, stability and biodegradability.
Book ChapterDOI
Polymer Pyrolysis for Resource Recovery
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate non-catalytic and catalytic pyrolysis of a number of common polymers by giving due emphasis to pyroolysis products and product formation pathways.
