Agricultural Residues as Biomass Energy
Energy Sources, Part B: Economics, Planning and Policy, 2007Abstract An evaluation of the production of agricultural residues in Turkey and their conversion to electrical energy via gasification was realized. Agricultural residues were classified into two main categories. The residues in the category A were separated into two sub groups. The residues in the subgroup A1 generally consisted of straw, plant stems,

Carbon-to-nitrogen ratios in agricultural residues
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 1995Agronomic crop residues produce greenhouse gas emissions. Crops that produce residues at harvest and during processing may vary from country to country. These residues, which can be in the form of peels, husks, stalks, or straw, are generally considered to be waste products.

The ammoniation of agricultural residues
Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, 1982AbstractAgricultural residues, including sugar cane bagasse, maize stalks, rice straw and rice hulls, were ammoniated at high temperature and pressure. Products containing more than 2% fixed nitrogen were obtained. The highest level of nitrogen was found after ammoniation of sugar cane bagasse.

Assessing Potentials for Agricultural Residues
2017Agricultural residues can be derived from both primary harvesting and pruning activities on field as well as by-products/residues from processing crops in the respective agricultural industries. In this chapter, they are defined as primary and secondary agricultural residues, respectively.The aim of the chapter is to present the key challenges, the ...

Gasification of Agricultural Residues
1948Excerpts: Large amounts of available agricultural residues in many cases are either going to waste or being utilized inefficiently. Since gasification of any carbonaceous material produces a combustible gas, it was considered of interest to explore the possibility of gas produced from such a source, e.g., corncobs, as e suitable fuel for internal ...

Ensiling Agricultural Residues for Bioethanol Production
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2007The potential of using ensiling, with and without supplemental enzymes, as a cost-effective pretreatment for bioethanol production from agricultural residues was investigated. Ensiling did not significantly affect the lignin content of barley straw, cotton stalk, and triticale hay ensiled without enzyme, but slightly increased the lignin content in ...

Agricultural Residue Availability in the United States
Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2006The National Energy Modeling System (NEMS) is used by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) to forecast US energy production, consumption, and price trends for a 25-yr-time horizon. Biomass is one of the technologies within NEMS, which plays a key role in several scenarios.

Valorization of Agricultural Residues
2019Globally, food and agriculture production consume 30% of the world’s energy and produce around 20% of the worlds greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions . Acknowledging increasing global food demand, this highlights the urgency to move towards a Climate Smart Agriculture in South-East-Asia and beyond to tackle the global climate challenge.

Residual piperonyl butoxide in agricultural products
Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 1978The residual levels of piperolyn butoxide (PB) in agricultural products were investigated for 531 samples of 10 species. For the determination of PB a high speed liquid chromatograph equipped with a fluorometric detector was used. The detection limit of PB was 0.1 ppm. PB was detected from 3 barleys and 3 wheats harvested in U.S.A. ans Australia.
