Biochemical Approaches to Wood Preservation
Much progress has been made in the past several years concerning the biochemistry and molecular genetics of fungal wood decay. Aspects of this knowledge were obtained with the intent of using the fungi and their enzymes for selective and beneficial purposes; e.g., in biopulping and biobleaching of wood fiber, in bioremediation of pollutants, and in biomass conversions for fuel and chemical feed...
متن کاملA Critical and Comprehensive Review of Boron in Wood Preservation
Borates have played an ever-increasing role in the preservation of wood worldwide and especially in the USA since the voluntary cancellation of CCA for residential lumber use patterns in 2004. However, there has not been a review of the efficacy and performance of borates, especially Disodium Octaborate Tetrahydrate, outside of the AWPA Data Package submitted by Nicholas and Preston in 1988 and...
متن کاملBasics of Wood Inspection: Considerations for Historic Preservation
Wood performs well in structures, often for hundreds of years or more, when it is kept dry and protected from the deleterious effects of moisture and biological deterioration. The open construction typical of historic structures, which provides air infiltration into the structure, makes it possible for the wood to dry quickly if it gets wet. Often this type of construction is criticized for per...
متن کاملPast , Present , and Future of the Wood Preservation Industry
Preservative treatment of wood has a long history in the United States and throughout the world. Even the early settlers to the New World in the 17th century used wood preservatives to protect homes and other structures. The treated wood industry in the United States is evolving as new products emerge, technology advances, and environmental concerns increase. Recently, chromated copper arsenate...
متن کاملInfluences of wood preservation, lumber size, and weather on field leaching of red pine lumber.
Alkaline copper quaternary (ACQ) is a widely used wood preservative. This study evaluated leachate volume generation and contaminant leaching from ACQ-treated lumber during rainfall events in comparison to untreated lumber. The influences of wood preservation with ACQ, lumber size, and weather on leachate generation ratio and contaminant concentrations in wood leachate were investigated with fo...
