The purpose of the study was to evaluate the suitability of laboratory scale spheronizer for the production of spherical pellets loaded with diltiazem hydrochloride by wax combination. The 1:1 combination of cetyl alcohol and hydrogenated castor oil, as low and high melting point waxes, were used. The various production variables affecting the different characteristics of pellets and the proces...

This paper investigates the ability of insulation cellulose fiber powder (CFP) to be pelletized for its valorization as biomass fuel. CFP is a waste originating from manufacturing that lacks any method because boron salts content. A sugar byproduct and lignosulfonate (LS) were considered binders pellet process. Physical tests carried out characterize pellets’ performance. Chemical combustion st...

An investigation was conducted to examine the impact of additive mixing with wheat straw (WS) for pellet making. This study manufactured seven types pellets different combinations evaluate quality characteristics and their relationships. A laboratory-type hammer mill a were used feedstock preparation production. Experimental investigations showed that lignin content increased from 7.0% 13.1%, w...

We report on a concept of co-pelletization using mechanically robust hydroxylated UiO-66 to develop metal-organic framework (MOF) monolith that contains 5 wt% electrospun polymer nanofibers, and consists an architecture with alternating layers MOF nanofiber mats. The polymers choice were the microporous Polymer Intrinsic Microporosity (PIM-1) non-porous polyacrylonitrile (PAN). Co-pelletized Ui...

Torrefaction used in combination with pelletization is a promising technology to upgrade solid biofuels and has been demonstrated worldwide. In comparison normal biomass pellets, which disintegrate under wet conditions, one of the advantages torrefied pellets better water resistance. An understanding differences proof properties for by different production schemes can promote their further appl...

Biochar can be derived from a wide variety of organic materials including agricultural wastes and residues, animal wastes, municipal solid pulp paper mill sewage sludge. Its productivity relies on feedstock type thermochemical conditions production. has many application advantages in several fields been widely studied recent years. However, most these studies are mainly the powder form biochar,...
