    Abstract : Smoldering fires represent domestic, environmental and industrial hazards. This flameless form of combustion is more easily initiated than flaming, and is also more persistent and difficult to extinguish. The growing demand for non-fossil fuels has increased the use of solid biofuels such as biomass. READ MORE

  4. 2. The effect of wood properties on oxidative isolation of cellulose nanofibrils and characterization of networks

    Author : Simon Jonasson; Kristiina Oksman; Lars Wågberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
