Changes in higher heating value and ash content of seaweed during ensiling [PDF]
A problem in the use of macroalgae for biofuel is that harvesting of seaweed is generally seasonal, and there is a need to preserve and store seaweed to supply year-round production processes. Ensiling is a widely used preservation method in agriculture, but there is little research on ensiling seaweed.\ud \ud The changes in ash content, higher heating

Statistical models for predicting the higher heating value of torrefied kesambi leaves [PDF]
The study investigates the effects of temperature and residence time on the energy density of kesambi leaves through experimental torrefaction, proximate analysis, and response surface methodology with a central composite design (RSM-CCD).

Investigation to Enhance Solid Fuel Quality in Torrefaction of Cow Manure
Recently, the conversion of livestock manure to solid fuel via torrefaction has brought more attention to moving forward to a carbon neutral society. A proper design of livestock manure to solid fuel is key for sustainable waste management. In this study,

Higher heating values (HHV) is a very useful parameter for assessing the design and large-scale operation of biomass-driven energy systems. HHV is conventionally measured experimentally with an adiabatic oxygen bomb calorimeter.

Rotochemical heating in millisecond pulsars: modified Urca reactions with uniform Cooper pairing gaps [PDF]
Context: When a rotating neutron star loses angular momentum, the reduction in the centrifugal force makes it contract. This perturbs each fluid element, raising the local pressure and originating deviations from beta equilibrium that enhance the ...

Prediction of energy content of biomass based on hybrid machine learning ensemble algorithm
In this study, three novel ensemble algorithms, namely, simple averaging, weighted averaging, and meta-learning ensemble algorithms were employed to predict the higher heating value of biomass. These strategies were implemented in two main stages. In the
