TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on the gasification study of a lab-scale pressurized circulating fluidized bed (PCFB) gasifier considering low-grade Indian coal and biomass such as sawdust and rice husk with a mean particle size of 600 μ m as feed materials.

TL;DR: There is a reduction of toxicity in the landfill leachate (LL) quality, obtaining with the LL 50% diluted, a germination index for Lactuca sativa of 20% GI, shows that the incorporation of sawdust is a useful pretreatment of photo-Fenton in the treatment of landfillLeachate.

TL;DR: In this paper, a slow pyrolysis characterization and kinetic modeling study of five different biomasses (corn brakes (CB), wheat straw (WS), hazelnut shell (HS), sawdust (Beech), and sawdust chemically treated (SDCT)) were performed in this work, using STA-MS techniques.

TL;DR: The results presented are very promising, allowing to establish that Tectona Grandis sawdust is as an excellent precursor for the basic AC production and allow to expect good performance of theses adsorbents on the removal of a broad range of pollutants.

Abstract: The low maintenance cost of wood plastic composite (WPC) is generating a boom in the market of wood composites products. An attempt is made to fabricat e WPCs with saw dust of pine wood flour which is wastages of wood/furniture industry. These composit es (WPCs) are made using matrices of recycled polypropylene (rPP) with sawdust (Pine Wood flour) as filler. Corresponding WPCs are also made using virgin plastics (vPP) for comparison with the recyc led plastic based composites. All varieties of thes e WPCs are made through melt compounding and injection moulding with varying formulations based on the plasti c type (PP), plastic form (recycled and virgin), wood four content and addition of coupling agent(MAPP). The water absorption and thickness swelling evaluated. To understand the changes in WPCs stability and durability performance, microstructure of the compo sites are examined, Incorporation of maleated polypropylene (MAPP) coupling agent in composite formulation improved the stability. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the fractured surfaces of WPCs confirmed that the MAPP coupling improved the interfacial bonding between the plastic and the wood filler for the series of composites.
