Baseline Characteristics of Pristine Agricultural Pods Biochar

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The valorization of agricultural pod wastes into biochar offers a sustainable pathway for waste management and the development of functional carbonaceous materials. This study comparatively evaluates biochars produced from cocoa, flamboyant, and locust bean pods using an autothermal top‐lit updraft gasifier with retort heating, a system ...

Technical Efficiency and Cost Implications of No‐Cook Versus Traditional Alcohol Production Technologies at Household Scale

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In Vietnam, traditional distilled rice alcohol is often produced at the household scale with limited sanitary conditions, leading to low yield, unstable, and moderate‐quality alcohol products. No‐cook or Simultaneous liquefaction, saccharification, and fermentation (SLSF) technology has shown to be very promising thanks to its advantages such ...
