Reducing the use of Fossil Carbon and Fuels to Defossilize the Electric Steelmaking Route: Evaluation of the Effects of Alternative C‐Bearing Materials and Hydrogen in the Electric Arc Furnace

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
The experiments and simulations demonstrate that, in general, alternative carbon sources can decrease fossil CO2 without adversely impacting EAF process and product. High plastics and tires ratios cause unsafe conditions and poor slag foaming. Hydrogen in EAF burners decreases CO2 but increases water vapor, which can raise the hydrogen content in ...

Torrefaction of Sewage Sludge: Kinetics and Fuel Properties of Biochars

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
We propose a ‘Waste to Carbon’ thermal transformation of sewage sludge (SS) via torrefaction to a valuable product (fuel) with a high content of carbon.

Torrefaction of residues and by-products from sunflower chain

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Engineering, 2013
The high heterogeneity of some residual biomasses makes rather difficult their energy use and standardisation is a key aspect for these fuel products. Torrefaction is an interesting process used to improve the quality of ligno-cellulosic biomasses and to

Biochar Production From Invasive Alien Plants: A Pathway to Sustainable Biomass Management and Resource Recovery

open access: yesEnvironmental Quality Management, Volume 36, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Across the world, invasive alien plants (IAPs) threaten biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, ecosystem services, and livelihoods. A potentially sustainable method for controlling IAPs is to convert their biomass into biochar, which reduces invasion pressure while producing useful products.

A Bibliometric‐Based Review of Biochar for Salt‐Affected Soil Restoration: Mapping Research Trends and Future Directions

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 13, Page 8963-8985, 15 August 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, biochar has been studied for its range of applications. Recognized by the IPCC as a key Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategy, it also stands out as an important tool for reclaiming degraded lands, including vast global areas affected by salinity, such as those in China, India, and Australia.

Biomass potassium impregnation effect on oxidative torrefaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Oxidative torrefaction, along with non-oxidative torrefaction, is a mild pyrolysis process usually carried out between 200 and 300 °C aiming to increase energy content, the hydrophobicity, and grindability of biomass.
