  1. 1. Chemical Properties of FBC Ashes

    Author : Britt-Marie Steenari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; straw ash; environmental impact of ash handling; sintering; deposits; fouling; wood ash recycling; FBC; ash leaching; ash chemistry; PFBC; forest fertiliser; ash hydration reactions; fuel additives; wood ash characteristics; CaS; ash melting; plant nutrient recycling;

    Abstract : In this thesis several aspects of ash chemistry are discussed. An issue of primary concern for boiler operators is the formation of ash deposits. New biomass fuels are introduced, many of which have unfavourable ash melting behaviour due to high levels of alkali metal species and chlorine. READ MORE

  2. 2. Ash Products for Nutrient Recycling in Forestry : Leaching and Drying Characteristics

    Author : Peter Mellbo; Tommy Claesson; Sirkku Sarenbo; Hans Samuelsson; Högskolan i Kalmar; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Ash products; Wood ash; Leaching; Drying; Nutrient; ; Sustainable forestry; Forestry; Skogsskötsel; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Abstract : As the demand for carbon dioxide neutral energy sources increases, forestry becomes more intensive. Entire trees are removed from the felling sites threatening the nutrient balance of the forest soils. READ MORE

  3. 3. Radiocesium in the forest and forest industry, Studies on the flow, occurrence and technological enhancement of radionuclides in the forest industry with emphasis on radiocesium

    Author : Aaro Ravila; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; forestry technology; forestry; recovery; Recycling; enhancement; fallout; radiocesium; wood; ash; biofuel; Silviculture; radiation.; Skogsvetenskap; skogsbruk; skogsteknik;

    Abstract : In the aftermath of the nuclear weapons testing and as compared with agriculture, the forest industry has received relatively little attention in spite of its large-scale use of radiocesium- contaminated wood and water. After the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in 1986, numerous studies of the forest environment have been conducted with respect to radionuclide transfer through the forest ecosystem or its many components.

  4. 4. Structure of Hardened Cement-Fly Ash Systems and Their Related Properties

    Author : Aimin Xu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; water vapour sorption isotherms; thermogravity analysis; mortar; scanning electron microscopy; differential thermal analysis; X-ray diffraction analysis; fly ash; pore structure; microstructure; cement paste;

    Abstract : The influence of fly ash on the pore structure and microstructure of cement paste and mortar has been investigated. The methods applied include water vapour sorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis and thermogravity/differential thermal analysis. READ MORE

  5. 5. Alkaline by-products as amendments for remediation of historic mine sites

    Author : Lotta Sartz; Bert Allard; Ernest Yanful; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Oxidized mine waste; lime mud; green liquor dregs; fly ash; lime kiln dust; steel slag; water works granules; Oxiderat gruvavfall; mesakalk; grönlut; flygaska; filterkalk; stålslagg; vattenverksgranuler; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; Environmental chemistry; Miljökemi; Enviromental Science; Miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Mining has been and still is an important industry in Sweden, it has strongly contributed to the standard of living we have today. Extraction of ore began in the 12th century, but did not come about frequently until the 16th century, which is often seen as the starting age for ore processing and metal extraction. READ MORE
