1. Sustainable Energy Conversion from Biomass Waste Combustion
Abstract : Various biomass-type conversions into sustainable heat and power, from dedicated crops to solid biomass waste via the combustion process, are at the center of scientific and industrial focus today. However, biomass combustion contribution to global particulate matter (PM) emission has become one of the biggest challenges that remain in the development of sustainable biomass combustion systems.

3. Neutronic and burnup studies of accelerator-driven systems dedicated to nuclear waste transmutation
Abstract : Partitioning and transmutation of plutonium, americium, and curium is inevitable if the radiotoxic inventory of spent nuclear fuel is to be reduced by more than a factor of 100. But, admixing minor actinides into the fuel severely degrades system safety parameters, particularly coolant void reactivity, Doppler effect, and (effective) delayed neutron fractions. READ MORE

4. Neutron-Induced Light-Ion Production from Iron and Bismuth at 175 MeV
Abstract : Radioactive waste management is one of the key issues in sustainability of nuclear energy production. Geological repositories represent today the most appropriate solution to long-term management of high-level radioactive waste. READ MORE

5. Fractionation of woody biomass : lignin and suberin in focus
Abstract : This thesis is dedicated to the research of fractionation and valorization of different types of woody biomass. In the first part, oak (Quercus suber) and birch (Betula pendula) barks are considered. Bark is the outer layer of wood and is treated as waste in the current wood processing technologies. READ MORE
