Analysis of Charcoal from Quercus phillyraeoides [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean Wood Science and Technology, 2013
In this work, charcoal making characteristics of Quercus phyllyaeoides (which has been known as one of best raw materials for charcoals) was investigated. Charcoal from Quercus phyllyaeoides had more than 85% of fixed carbon, which is 5∼25% higher fixed carbon content than other charcoals. Also specific gravity of this charcoal was more than 1.0, which

Charcoal analysis in marine sediments [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 1997
A technique is described for measuring charcoal in small samples (5 mg) of marine sediments to quantify the contribution of charcoal to the total organic carbon loading of marine sediments. Charcoal is measured as elemental carbon by gas chromatography after acidification with hot concentrated nitric acid in situ within aluminum sample cups to remove ...
