Thermal characterization and pyrolysis kinetics of tropical biomass feedstocks for energy recovery
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse energy related properties, thermal degradation behavior and devolatilization kinetics of five Cameroonian biomasses namely, Palm Kernel Shells (PKS), Mesocarp Fibres (PMF), Coffee Husk (CH), Corn Cob (CC) and Peanut Shell (PNS).
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioenergy overview for Portugal
TL;DR: The potentials of biomass, conversion technologies and legal framework are analyzed and discussed in this article, showing that there are still unused potentials especially from forestry, which can contribute significantly to cover the bioenergy targets.

Quantitative Trait Loci and Trait Correlations for Maize Stover Cell Wall Composition and Glucose Release for Cellulosic Ethanol
Robenzon E. Lorenzana,Magan Friskop Lewis,Hans-Joachim G. Jung,Hans-Joachim G. Jung,Rex Bernardo +4 more
TL;DR: Because no major QTL were found, methods that increase the frequency of favorable QTL alleles or that predict performance based on markers would be appropriate in marker-assisted breeding for maize stover quality for cellulosic ethanol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Herbaceous plant biomass harvest and delivery cost with harvest segmented by month and number of harvest machines endogenously determined
TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical programming model is developed that includes integer decision variables enabling investment in harvest machines that provide monthly harvest capacity based on expected harvest days per month, and the results from a conventional model are compared to those of the alternative model that endogenously determines the number of harvest machines.

Pyrolysis of energy cane bagasse and invasive Chinese tallow tree (Triadica sebifera L.) biomass in an inductively heated reactor
TL;DR: In this article, an induction heating mechanism was used to pyrolyze biomass from energy cane ( Saccharum complex) bagasse and invasive Chinese tallow trees ( Triadica sebifera L.).

Energy production from biomass (Part 1): Overview of biomass.
TL;DR: The potential of a restored landfill site to act as a biomass source, providing fuel to supplement landfill gas-fuelled power stations, is examined, together with a comparison of the economics of power production from purpose-grown biomass versus waste-biomass.
An assessment of thermochemical conversion systems for processing biomass and refuse
A Bridgwater,G D Evans +1 more
TL;DR: A survey of gasification, pyrolysis and liquefaction technologies for biomass and waste has been conducted to identify processes suitable for opportunities in the UK and Denmark as discussed by the authors.
Bioconversion assessment study
TL;DR: The ENERGIE RENOUVELABLE Reference Record created on 2004-09-07, modified on 2016-08-08 as discussed by the authors was created for the BIOMASSE project.
