Abstract Hybrid composite materials are becoming more desirable for various industrial applications to enhance sustainability and develop better environmentally friendly green products. This work aims the synergy of both bio-ceramic eggshell date palm leaflet (DPL) fillers integrate their advantages in an optimized hybridization manner significance producing novel biomaterials with improved des...

The present study aimed to investigate the properties of a promising bone scaffold for bone repair, which consisted of a novel composite of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) attached to a porous β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The β-TCP powder was synthesized and its composition was determined using X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spect...

Composite materials based on various precursors have been tested for several years as biomaterials in medicine, esp. in bone surgery. New technologies allow to produce composites with required mechanical properties close to those of human bones, of a suitable shape and size of the pores, facilitating or preventing the ingrowth of the bone cells, and with excellent biological properties. They ar...

Significant interest for utilizing and processing natural fibers (NF) to develop sustainable fully biodegradable composites evolved as the global environmental concerns upsurge. Date palm tree (DPT) accounts more than 2.8 million tons of waste annually, making it most abundant agricultural biomass in MENA region. This study investigates effect date fiber (DPF) density, diameter size content on ...

Abstract 5 The techno-economic potential of the UK poplar wood and imported oil palm empty fruit 6 bunch derived bio-oil integrated gasification and Fischer-Tropsch (BOIG-FT) systems for the 7 generation of transportation fuels and combined heat and power (CHP) was investigated. The 8 bio-oil was represented in terms of main chemical constituents, i.e. acetic acid, acetol and 9 guaiacol. The co...

The presented study aims to improve the quality of bio-oils by catalytic upgrading of pyrolysis bio-oil from microwave pyrolysis of biomass using transition metal modified activated carbon (AC) catalyst. A central composite experimental design (CCD) was used to optimize the reaction conditions for high quality bio-oil production. The effects of reaction temperature and reaction time on product ...

Influence of reinforcement effect on mechanical properties of banana bio fiber polyester has been investigated. Three different type of weaving patterns such as plain, basket and twill banana fabric were used to analyze the mechanical properties of composites. Results revealed that composite with basket weaving style enhances the properties of composite material compared to other two patterns. ...

Biomass heavy oil is employed to partially substitute the petroleum-based asphalt due its renewability, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective advantages. However, usage weakens high-temperature performance of petroleum asphalt. Therefore, nano-ZnO was as a modifier make composite-modified improve in this paper. It prepared two steps: first, bio-asphalt by adding biomass based on certain ...
