The evolution of the pyrolysis of sewage sludge in a fixed and a fluidized bed was analyzed using a novel measuring technique. This original measuring technique consists of installing the whole reactor over a precision scale, capable of measuring the mass of the complete reactor with enough precision to detect the mass released by the sewage sludge sample during its pyrolysis. The inert conditi...

AB STRACT: The ef fi cacy of the flu o ride-chlorhexidine as so ci a tion in the pre ven tion of gin gi vi tis and car ies has been ad vo cated for a num ber of years5,7,14. The ob jec tive of the as so ci a tion of these ther a peu tic agents is a syn er gis tic ac tion. The aim of the pres ent study was to de ter mine the substantivity of chlorhexidine as so ci ated or not to so dium flu o ri...

Gas phase pyrolysis of o-hydroxybenzyl alcohol at 750 degrees C gave o-quinonemethide, which, on isolation, formed a mixture of the corresponding dimer and trimer. However, pyrolysis of o-hydroxy-[1-(4-pentenyl)]benzyl alcohol permitted intramolecular trapping of the intermediate o-quinonemethide, giving 3,4-trimethylene-3,4-dihydrobenzochroman. In contrast, gas phase pyrolysis of o-mercaptoben...

Pyrolysis oil, a complex mixture of several organic compounds, produced during flash pyrolysis of organic lignocellulosic material was evaluated for its suitability as alternative carbon source for fungal growth and fermentation processes. Therefore several fungi from all phyla were screened for their tolerance toward pyrolysis oil. Additionally Aspergillus oryzae and Rhizopus delemar, both est...

The transformation of lignocellulosic biomass into bio-based commodity chemicals is technically possible. Among thermochemical processes, fast pyrolysis, a relatively mature technology that has now reached a commercial level, produces a high yield of an organic-rich liquid stream. Despite recent efforts to elucidate the degradation paths of biomass during pyrolysis, the selectivity and recovery...

As a promising conjugated polymer, binary carbon nitride has attracted extensive attention as a metal-free and visible-light-responsive photocatalyst in the area of photon-involving purification of water and air. Herein, we report sulfur-doped polymeric carbon nitride microrods that are synthesized through thermal polymerization based on trithiocyanuric acid and melamine (TM) supramolecular agg...

could be prepared by employing appropriate precursor molecules. Nanotubes containing both boron and nitrogen have Carbon nanotubes containing small amounts of nitrogen are been grown in the electric arc discharge between graphite produced by the pyrolysis of aza-aromatics such as pyridine, cathodes and graphite anodes filled with boron in a nitrogen methylpyrimidine and triazine over cobalt nan...

Pyrolysis is an attractive thermal conversion technology used to produce bio-oil and some chemicals. In this study, we investigated the pyrolysis of sewage sludge under N2 and CO2 atmosphere at various temperatures (350-750°C) in a rotating fixed bed reactor. For under N2 atmosphere, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) shows two major reaction peaks centered at 300 and 500°C. However, if CO2 was...

Three lignins: Indulin AT, Lignoboost, and Acetocell lignin, were characterized and pyrolyzed in a continuous-fed fast pyrolysis process. The physical and chemical properties of the lignins included chemical composition, heat content, ash, and water content. The distributed activation energy model (DAEM) was used to describe the pyrolysis of each lignin. Activation energy distributions of each ...

Even being the more studied of interior basins Northeast Brazil, Araripe Basin still lacks research in organic geochemistry designed to support interpretations depositional systems and conditions formation. This work aims investigate behavior evaporites shales from Santana Group (Lower Cretaceous), as well discuss their role evolution its systems. A total 23 samples, 17 six evaporites, were col...
