Chemical Looping with Oxygen Uncoupling (CLOU) is an advanced approach proposed for improving the utilization degree of solid fuels and speeding up the reaction rate in Chemical-Looping Combustion technology (CLC). In CLOU system, OC circulates between fuel reactor (FR) and air reactor (AR), providing gaseous oxygen for the combustion of fuels (in FR) and then being regenerated by absorbing gas...

Available evidence concerning the association between indoor air pollution (IAP) from biomass and solid fuel combustion and preeclampsia/eclampsia is not available in developing countries. We investigated the association between exposure to IAP from biomass and solid fuel combustion and symptoms of preeclampsia/eclampsia in Indian women by analyzing cross-sectional data from India's third Natio...

Exposure to household air pollution from solid fuels (HAP) is associated with stroke. However, few studies have assessed stroke burden attributable HAP globally and made comparisons across countries. We aimed estimate the spatiotemporal trends in mortality 204 countries territories 1990 2019. Data on 2019 were obtained Global Burden of Disease Study estimated numbers age-standardized rates (ASR...

Combustion of biomass fuels (wood and charcoal) for cooking releases smoke that contains health damaging pollutants. Women and children are the most affected. Exposure to biomass smoke is associated with acute respiratory infections (ARI). This study investigated the prevalence of ARI potentially caused by smoke from wood and charcoal stoves in Western Sierra Leone, as these two fuels are the p...

Abstract Proximate analyses and decomposition profiles of solid fuels commonly used in Kenya were studied to determine their relative suitability for use as a clean efficient source energy households. The moisture, volatile matter, ash, fixed carbon content firewood, charcoal, briquette samples investigated, well under various temperature regimes. Except the ash sample, which deviated slightly ...
