  1. 21. Agricultural waste and wood waste for pyrolysis and biochar : An assessment for Rwanda​

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Jenny Eliasson; Viktor Carlsson; [2020]
    Keywords : Biochar; Pyrolysis; Biochar feedstock characteristics; Agricultural waste; Composition crop residues; Wood waste; Agricultural production Rwanda; Ultimate analysis; Structural composition; Heating Value; RPR; Biokol; Pyrolysis; Råmaterialegenskaper biokol; Jordbruksavfall​; Sammansättning jordbruksavfall; Träavfall; Jordbruksproduktion Rwanda; Värmevärde;

    Abstract : A high priority in order to combat climate change is disposal of waste. In low-income countries, a large portion of biomass residues generated in the forestry, agricultural and industrial sectors could be usable, instead of being seen as waste. For instance, it could be converted into biochar, which is proven to have many environmental benefits. READ MORE

  2. 22. Identifying symptoms of fault in District Heating Substations : An investigation in how a predictive heat load software can help with fault detection
