Toward a standardized procedure for charcoal analysis

open access: yesQuaternary Research, 2020
AbstractSedimentary charcoal records are used for understanding fire as an earth system process; however, no standardized laboratory methodology exists. Varying sample volumes and chemical treatments (i.e., type of chemical for length of time) are used for the deflocculation and extraction of charcoal from sediment samples.

Archaeological Charcoal Analysis in New Zealand

Journal of Pacific Archaeology, 2017
Charcoal is well preserved and abundant in many New Zealand archaeological sites. When identified to species it provides a means of reconstructing past vegetation communities adjacent to occupation sites. However, the way charcoal deposits accumulated needs to be considered before species identifications are converted into vegetation reconstructions ...

Wood Charcoal Analysis in Archaeology

2018
This chapter examines historical and recent methodological developments in the field of wood charcoal analysis (anthracology). A key aim is to outline various approaches to research questions relating to the reconstruction of past vegetation cover, fuel wood use practices and palaeoecology.

Chemical analysis and potential health risks of hookah charcoal

Science of The Total Environment, 2016
Hookah (waterpipe) smoking is a very common practice that has spread globally. There is growing evidence on the hazardous consequences of smoking hookah, with studies indicating that its harmful effects are comparable to cigarette smoking if not worse. Charcoal is commonly used as a heating source for hookah smoke.

Widely used charcoal analysis method in paleo studies involving NaOCl results in loss of charcoal formed below 400°C

The Holocene, 2021
This study investigated the effects a dilute solution of bleach (4% sodium hypochlorite), has on charcoal. We were particularly interested in considering if charcoal formed under different conditions of pyrolysis was differentially affected by this ...

Analysis of charcoal production with recent developments in Sub-Sahara Africa: a review

African Geographical Review, 2020
The paper reviews the state of charcoal production in Sub-Saharan Africa, where 65% of the world’s charcoal is produced. Charcoal production is dominated by smallholders who use wood from unsustainable sources and inefficient carbonization techniques ...
