Density, calorific value and cleavage strength of selected hybrid Eucalypts grown in uganda [PDF]
This study was done to ascertain the suitability of Uganda’s clonal eucalypts for fuelwood. The objectives were to determine: (i) basic density (BD); (ii) calorific value (CV); and (iii) cleavage resistance (CLR) parallel to the grain of widely adopted clones i.e.

Impact of torrefaction technique on the moisture contents, bulk density and calorific value of briquetted biomass [PDF]
Abstract The concept of different compositional biomass is introduced to enhance the binding properties and utilize the use of different seasonal biomasses. The effect of densification on the heating values of single pure and mixed compositional biomasses is observed with and without applying special type of pretreatment named as ...

Experimental investigation on density, kinematic viscosity and calorific value of sunflower oil - pentanol binary biofuel blend [PDF]
The usage of fossil fuels as the main energy source has become a serious problem due to concerns over environmental pollution and the rising fuel prices worldwide. Straight Vegetable Oil (SVO), such as Pure Sunflower Oil (PSO), is a possible alternative biofuel to petroleum diesel fuel because of its physical qualities identical to fossil fuel. However,

Influence of sieve size on calorific value and proximate properties of bio-briquette composites [PDF]
This work aimed to observe the influence of calorific value and proximate properties in the fabrication of rice husk (RS) and coffee shell (CH) briquettes composite. Rice and coffee husks contain cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.

EFFECT OF BULK DENSITY OF COAL BLEND ON THE CALORIFIC VALUE OF COKE
The article is devoted to laboratory studies to determine the influence of the bulk density of a coal blend (in particular, tamped) on the value of the gross calorific value of the coke obtained from it. To making up a model coal blends, coal concentrates has been selected and analyzed from the raw material base of Ukrainian coke enterprises.
