Torrefaction of biomass is a promising pre-treatment process capable substantially improving the properties raw for its use as solid biofuel, among many other potential applications. Oxygen-lean torrefaction can effectively reduce cost and complexity inert torrefaction. In this work, tests crushed olive stones were conducted in thermogravimetric analyzer various oxygen concentrations, under bot...

In the present work we systematically studied hydrolysis of magnesium hydride in MgCl2 aqueous solutions, which was used as a process promotor. The initial rate, pH reaction mixture, and overall yield are all found to be linearly dependent logarithm concentration. phase-structural elemental compositions formed precipitates showed that they do not contain chlorine ions solely consist Mg(OH)2. si...
