Biomass residues and waste can be converted into bioliquids by pyrolysis, which can contribute to both the production of renewable fuels and the recycling of waste. In this paper, the catalytic co-pyrolysis of mixtures of beech wood (BW) and polyamide-6 (PA6) in different ratios was investigated to ...

In this study, kiri wood (Paulownia spp.) is assessed as potential core layer material for blockboards. Blockboards with core layers made of kiri and spruce (Picea abies) were produced using Anthocephalus cadamba as crossband veneer and beech (Fagus sylvatica) as face veneer. With spruce as core...

This study paves a strategy to better understand the thermal conversion of biomass residues. In particular, a comprehensive study to determine the multi-step reaction model to describe the pyrolysis process of brewer's spent grain from Pilsner (PBSG) and Weizen (WBSG) malts, and beech wood chips...

Welding temperature is an important factor of rotary welding and affects the strength of the joint or the embedded force. This research focused on the parameters that affect the welding temperature and the effect of welding temperature on the embedded force of the dowel. Welding temperature was...

In this study, the surface parameters wettability, roughness, and adhesive penetration, which are important for wood bonding, were investigated and evaluated utilizing non-destructive methods after different mechanical processing. For this purpose, beech and birch finger joints were prepared with...

The effect of sanding, as the last operation before finishing, on the quality of heat treated wood surfaces has been insufficiently explored and explained. This paper compared the effects of sanding with three commonly used sanding grit sizes P60, P100, and P150 on the surface roughness values of...

Wood disks are very susceptible to checking during drying. The present study was aimed to determine a suitable transducer mounting configuration to detect the drying checks with acoustic emission (AE) technique. AE generated during drying of 30-mm-thick beech (Fagus orientalis L.) wood disk with a...

Based on a systematic review, 19 case studies were selected, focusing on the production of biochar through pyrolysis of five lignocellulosic biomasses (olive husk, beech wood, corncob, spruce wood, and hazelnut shell), under constant pressure (0.1 MPa) and temperature from 650.2 to 973.0 K....

In this study, the tensile shear strength of untreated, acetylated, and heat-treated beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) wood joints was investigated as a function of different surficial processing techniques. It was hypothesized that differentiating patterns of surface texture are induced by specific...

The aim of this paper was to determine the particle size composition of wood dust emission from CNC milling of natural wood and medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and evaluate the associated occupational exposure risks. The paper is focused on some of the most commonly used materials in the...
