Agricultural and wood residues are principal energy sources for domestic and industrial activities. However, they are often hardly utilized. Conventional wood material for briquetting optimizes combustion and efficient power production. The relationship between strength properties, resistance to humidity and calorific values of sawdust-briquettes from ...

Insufficient knowledge on Ugandan grown Eucalyptus grandis W. Hill ex Maiden wood properties, high demand, and processing challenges led to a study into its physical properties. We obtained the variation of basic density (BD), calorific value (CV) and volumetric shrinkage (VS) within tree height and tree-age of E. grandis, and its appropriate use based

Diesel is extensively used as a fuel in prime movers, boilers and other power generation plants. The higher calorific value of diesel gives a measure of the effective chemical energy stored in a unit amount of fuel. The higher calorific value is required for the efficiency calculation of a machine and hence it directly affects the estimation of the ...

Abstract Prosopis africana and Balanites aegyptiaca are native tree species in the West African Sahel and provide wood for fuel, construction and other essential products. A provenance/progeny test of each species was established at one relatively dry site in Niger, and evaluated at 13 years. Gross calorific value of the wood was determined for a

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,

The role of termites in an equatorial rain forest ecosystem of West Malaysia
Oecologia, 19761. Density of nests, population number, biomass, nitrogen and carbon content, calorific content and respiration rate of termites were studied at Pasoh Forest, West Malaysia mainly with four dominant species of epigeous nest builders, Macrotermes carbonarius, Dicuspiditermes nemorosus type-a, type-b and Homallotermes foraminifer, to reveal their role in

Parameters as a fuel economy, exhaust emissions, enough yield taking from using alternative fuels in vehicles are dependent directly properties of using alternative fuel. Therefore, properties of using alternative fuels need to be close or suitable to those of self fuels in vehicles. So, properties of alternative fuels need to be determined.
