Effect of two artisanal carbonization methods on the elaboration of charcoal from aguaje (Mauritia flexuosa)seed

Agroindustrial Science, 2023
The production of coal from biomass emerges as a sustainable alternative, both to take advantage of waste and to protect the environment. This research aims to take advantage of aguaje seeds to make ecochar. First, the seeds (from Pucallpa and Yurimaguas) were characterized proximally. They were then characterized morphologically (length, diameter, and

Long‐term interventions by conservation and development projects support successful recovery of tropical peatlands in Amazonia

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 871-886, April 2025.
Abstract Rural communities in Amazonia rely on harvesting Mauritia flexuosa fruit, a dominant peatland palm, for their subsistence and income. However, these palms are felled to harvest the fruits, which has led to reduced resource availability due to the pressure exerted by the increasing fruit demand.
