Influence of Particle Size, Moisture, and Cloud Density on Wood Dust Ignition
The ignition and combustion of particle clouds are strongly affected by particle interactions. This study uses spectroscopy to examine effects of particle size, water content, and cloud density. Results show ignition delay rises with larger size and density, whereas combustion duration depends mainly on water and density due to moisture‐driven ...

Thermal Degradation of PFAS in Different Scales: Measurement of Hydrogen Fluoride (HF)
The communication article is about the challenges to balance a combustor in the case of fluorine when incinerating PFAS containing materials. Several analytical methods are compared: for continuous measurement, FTIR with TDLS. The detected fluorine species are further compared with results upon IC and pyrohydrolysis for discontinuous measurements in ...

Abstract Several authors have reported the disconnection between the skills, abilities, and attitudes of graduates from STEM careers with the current needs of the labour market. In science and engineering fields, research has found the need for interdisciplinary approaches that encourage meaningful learning.

Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

A novel bubbling fluid bed reactor for the autothermal pyrolysis of waste plastics
Abstract A new pilot‐scale fluidized bed reactor operated under continuous conditions was developed and tested for the thermal pyrolysis of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). The study focused on assessing the reliability and operability of the system under different operating conditions (400–550°C), while monitoring mass and energy balances, product ...

To develop recycling processes for lithium‐ion batteries, wastewater treatment for the removal of organic compounds originating from the electrolyte was investigated using electro‐oxidation and ozonation. Based on the results, this paper proposes a process which combines these two methods to remove alcohols derived from the solvent and additives ...

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...
