Different lignins from different sources (hardwoods, softwoods and crop residues) obtained as by-products of processes such pulping or biorefining were depolymerized in alkaline supercritical water (SCW: 386 °C 260 bar) an intensified continuous process to produce high value-added compounds with low-molecular-weight only 300 ms reaction time. The products analysed determine the yield, selectivi...

Abstract The spatial structure of forest ecosystems is dominated by the horizontal and vertical distribution trees their attributes across space. Canopy disturbance a primary regulator structure. Although importance tree pattern widely acknowledged as it affects important ecosystem processes such regeneration recruitment into overstory, quantitative reference conditions to inform silvicultural ...

Abstract Forests and agricultural plantations are vegetated areas that play an important role in catering to human needs. The characteristics of the two lands can be recognized by utilizing remote sensing techniques WorldView-2 satellite images as green biomass monitoring tools. research was undertaken Sabah Softwoods Berhad (SSB) forest plantation, East Malaysia, analyze land use high function...

In this study, cross-laminated wood panels were manufactured with four softwoods and three hardwoods the goal of efficiently predicting static strength performance using dynamic modulus elasticity (MOE) simultaneously revealing panels. The effect density species on MOE laminated was investigated. Moreover, bending predicted nondestructively through correlation regression between performance. Fo...

Biomass has become an increasingly important resource for energy generation. The influence of the chemical composition on heating value biomass not been a thoroughly studied subject, as shown by bibliometric analysis. It is well known that lignin significantly higher (23.26–25.58 MJ/kg) than polysaccharides (18.6 MJ/kg), while extractives often have HHVs over 30 MJ/kg, depending their oxidation...

Abstract The material properties of wood are intimately tied to the amount moisture contained in cell walls. content depends on environmental conditions, i.e. temperature and relative humidity, but also characteristics itself. exact mechanisms governing equilibrium between walls conditions remain obscure, likely because multiple have been proposed be involved. In this study, we used a data expl...
