Ash analyses of bio-coal briquettes produced using blended binder [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The behaviour of ash of fuel affects its thermal efficiency when in use. The ash analyses of bio-coal briquettes developed from lean grade coal and torrefied woody biomass have received limited intensive study.

Influence of Bio-Coal Properties on Carbonization and Bio-Coke Reactivity [PDF]
Metals, 2021 Coke corresponds to 2/3–3/4 of the reducing agents in BF, and by the partial replacement of coking coals with 5–10% of bio-coal, the fossil CO2 emissions from the BF can be lowered by ~4–8%.

Influence of Modified Bio-Coals on Carbonization and Bio-Coke Reactivity [PDF]
Metals, 2021 Substitution of coal in coking coal blend with bio-coal is a potential way to reduce fossil CO2 emissions from iron and steelmaking. The current study aims to explore possible means to counteract negative influence from bio-coal in cokemaking.

The Effect of Bio-Coal Agglomeration and High-Fluidity Coking Coal on Bio-Coke Quality
Metals, 2023 Metallurgical coke with high strength and low reactivity is used in the ironmaking blast furnace. Replacement of some coking coal with bio-coal was shown to result in lower strength and higher reactivity of produced coke due to introduction of reactive ...

The Influence of Residence Time during Hydrothermal Carbonisation of Miscanthus on Bio-Coal Combustion Chemistry [PDF]
Energies, 2019 Miscanthus was treated by hydrothermal carbonisation in a 2-L batch reactor at 200 °C and 250 °C with residence times ranging between 0 and 24 h to understand the impact of residence time has on the resulting bio-coal combustion chemistry ...

The Influence of pH on the Combustion Properties of Bio-Coal Following Hydrothermal Treatment of Swine Manure [PDF]
Energies, 2020 The application of excessive amounts of manure to soil prompted interest in using alternative approaches for treating slurry. One promising technology is hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC) which can recover nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen while ...

Analysis of the Characteristics of Bio-Coal Briquettes from Agricultural and Coal Industry Waste
Energies, 2023 One of the options for reducing harmful emissions in the production of heat energy is the use of biomass, including in combination with industrial waste (for instance, coal and coke dust).

Self-Reduction Behavior of Bio-Coal Containing Iron Ore Composites
Metals, 2020 The utilization of CO2 neutral carbon instead of fossil carbon is one way to mitigate CO2 emissions in the steel industry. Using reactive reducing agent, e.g., bio-coal (pre-treated biomass) in iron ore composites for the blast furnace can also enhance ...

Techno-economic assessment for bio coal production from brewers spent grain
South African Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2022 Tons of organic wastes are being generated from household, domestic and industrial waste. This waste if left untreated results in the emission of greenhouses gases such as methane and carbon dioxide, in overall resulting in climate change effects. On the
