Mechanisms of soot restructuring and compaction [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Soot aggregates form as open, fractal-like structures, but aged atmospheric particles are often observed to be restructured into more compact shapes. This compaction has a major effect on the radiative properties of the aggregates, and may also influence their aerosol-cloud interactions and toxicity. Recent laboratory studies have presented conflicting

Enhancing soot oxidation using microtextured surfaces

Scientific Reports
Biomass combustion provides energy needs for millions of people worldwide. However, soot accumulation on the combustors’ walls significantly reduces heat transfer efficiency. Herein, we demonstrate how microtextured surfaces minimize soot accumulation by

Discrete element method model of soot aggregates [PDF]

Soot is a component of atmospheric aerosols that affects climate by scattering and absorbing the sunlight. Soot particles are fractal aggregates composed of elemental carbon. In the atmosphere, the aggregates acquire coatings by condensation and coagulation, resulting in significant compaction of the aggregates that changes the direct climate forcing ...

Caring Futures: Australian Attitudes About the Desirability of Care Work

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid increasing public and policy attention on the care and support sector, which millions of Australians rely upon for essential services, care workers continue to advocate for better pay and fairer conditions. This article draws on the concepts of recognition, value and social distribution from feminist ethics of care scholarship to explore ...

Effect of soot formed in result of coal combustion with two types of solid fuel additives on soot – soil bacteria interaction – biodegradation of soot components by soil bacteria

E3S Web of Conferences, 2016
During coal combustion soot formation is unwanted. There are many fuel additives used to reduce soot production. In this study toxicity and biodegradation of three types of soot by two soil bacteria strains i.e.

Note on the Composition of Soot [PDF]

The Journal of Agricultural Science, 1910
The value of soot as a manure depeuds upon the ammonium salts which it contains, as well as upon its beneficial effect on the texture and colour of the soil, and its power of diminishing the ravages of slugs and small snails upon a young crop. In various samples which from time to time have been submitted to analysis the percentage of nitrogen present ...
