By-products from methyl ester oil production and their thermal-emission properties
With the exhaustion of fossil energy sources in sight, the importance of the renewable sources of energy becomes one of the major conditions for permanently sustainable development not only in agriculture, but also in the society as a whole.

Some Properties of White and Torrefied Pellets Obtained from Oil Palm Trunk as Raw Material
Properties of unheated wood pellets were compared with those of torrefied wood pellets that had been heated to 270, 290, and 310 °C, with raw material taken from two different height levels of oil palm trunk (OPT).

Stability of radiation-pressure dominated disks. I. The dispersion relation for a delayed heating alpha-viscosity prescription [PDF]
We derive and investigate the dispersion relation for accretion disks with retarded or advanced heating. We follow the alpha-prescription but allow for a time offset (\tau) between heating and pressure perturbations, as well as for a diminished response ...

Effects of water pretreatment on properties of pellets made from beech particles [PDF]
Particles of beech wood were treated with hot water at the temperature of 150 oC, during 60 min, prior to the pelleting process. The applied hot water pretreatment affected the chemical composition and heating value of particles.

Constraint on intergalactic dust from thermal history of intergalactic medium [PDF]
This Letter investigates the amount of dust in the intergalactic medium (IGM). The dust photoelectric heating can be the most efficient heating mechanism in the IGM where the density is very small and there are a lot of hard ultraviolet photons ...

Formation of Fluctuations in the Molecular Slab via Isobaric Thermal Instability [PDF]
The frictional heating by ion-neutral drift is calculated and its effect on isobaric thermal instability is carried out. Ambipolar drift heating of one-dimensional self-gravitating magnetized molecular slab is used under the assumptions of quasi ...

Work and heat value of bound entanglement [PDF]
Entanglement has recently been recognized as an energy resource which can outperform classical resources if decoherence is relatively low. Multi-atom entangled states can mutate irreversibly to so called bound entangled (BE) states under noise. Resource value of BE states in information applications has been under critical study and a few cases where ...
