Steam gasification of waste tyre: influence of process temperature on yield and product composition.
Sabrina Portofino,Antonio Donatelli,Pierpaolo Iovane,Carolina Innella,Rocco Civita,Maria Martino,Domenico Antonio Matera,Antonio Russo,Giacinto Cornacchia,Sergio Galvagno +9 more
TL;DR: The experimental results show that the waste tyre gasification with steam as oxidizing agent seems promising in view of obtaining a good quality syngas, indicating that a higher temperature results in a higher syngAs production and a lower char yield, due to an enhancement of the solid-gas phase reactions with the temperature.

Association Mapping of Biomass Yield and Stem Composition in a Tetraploid Alfalfa Breeding Population
Xuehui Li,Yanling Wei,Kenneth J. Moore,Réal Michaud,D. R. Viands,J. L. Hansen,Ananta Acharya,E. Charles Brummer +7 more
TL;DR: The authors investigated population structure and linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns in a tetraploid alfalfa breeding population using genome-wide simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and identified markers related to yield and cell wall composition by association mapping.
