Characterization of Fecal Sludge Combined with Sawdust as Briquettes

open access: yesJurnal Presipitasi
This study aimed to characterize fecal sludge (FS) combined with sawdust (SD) as non-charcoal briquettes. The combination consists of var.1 (FS 75% : SD 25%), var.2 (FS 50% : SD 50%), and var.3 (FS 25% : SD 75%). Fecal sludge was obtained from the sludge

The Critical Role of Economies of Scale: A Techno‐Economic Assessment of Small‐ Versus Large‐Scale Biogas Upgrading in Rural Tanzania

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Small‐scale biogas upgrading can improve methane quality but remains financially unattractive to individual rural households. Community‐scale implementation substantially lowers energy costs, demonstrating that economies of scale are critical to making purified biogas a viable clean‐cooking option in Tanzania.

Experimental Characterization of the Effects of Mineral‐Based Fire‐Retardant Admixtures on the Combustion Properties of Polyethylene Blends

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for flame retardant (FR) polymeric materials has highlighted the need to improve the combustion behaviour of highly flammable polymers such as polyethylene (PE). This study investigates the use of eco‐sustainable mineral FRs as a strategy to reduce heat release and smoke production during combustion, while improving the ...

Effects of anti-resorptive agents on trabecular bone score (TBS) in older women.

open access: yes, 2013
We evaluated the longitudinal effects of anti-resorptive agents (534 treated women vs. 1,150 untreated) on lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) and trabecular bone score (TBS). TBS was responsive to treatment in women over age 50.
