Biodiesel fuels from palm oil via the non-catalytic transesterification in a bubble column reactor at atmospheric pressure: A kinetic study
Joelianingsih; Maeda, Hitoshi; Hagiwara, Shoji; … - In: Renewable Energy 33 (2008) 7, pp. 1629-1636
Biodiesel has become more attractive recently because of its environmental benefits and the fact that it is made from renewable resources. Transesterification of vegetable oils with short-chain alcohol has long been a preferred method for producing biodiesel fuel. A new reactor was developed to...

Kinetic study and thermal analysis of the pyrolysis of non-edible oilseed powders by thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetric analysis
Shadangi, Krushna Prasad; Mohanty, Kaustubha - In: Renewable Energy 63 (2014) C, pp. 337-344
This work reports the kinetic study of the pyrolysis of four non-edible oil seeds such as Mahua, Karanja, Niger and Linseed conducted at a heating rate of 5, 10 and 15 °C min−1 under nitrogen atmosphere. The relation between kinetic parameters and degradation rate was observed with respect...

Conversion of the greenhouse gas CO2 to the fuel gas CO via the Boudouard reaction: A review
Lahijani, Pooya; Zainal, Zainal Alimuddin; Mohammadi, Maedeh - In: Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 41 (2015) C, pp. 615-632
The remediation of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere has become the topic of the day due to the enormous contribution of CO2 to the devastating global warming. The Boudouard reaction, in which solid carbon (char) reacts with CO2 to produce carbon monoxide (CO2 (g)+C(s)↔CO (g)), is a...

Kinetic Study of the Pyrolysis of Waste Printed Circuit Boards Subject to Conventional and Microwave Heating
Sun, Jing; Wang, Wenlong; Liu, Zhen; Ma, Qingluan; … - In: Energies 5 (2012) 9, pp. 3295-3306
This paper describes a kinetic study of the decomposition of waste printed circuit boards (WPCB) under conventional and microwave-induced pyrolysis conditions. We discuss the heating rates and the influence of the pyrolysis on the thermal decomposition kinetics of WPCB. We find that the thermal...
