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 ...

Introduction: This research aimed at assessing the wood products markets between 2015-2019 in Romania, by conducting an empirical study on the evolution of the number of companies, turnover and number of employees for the fields of activity "Silviculture and other forestry activities" (NACE code...

These proceedings contain 86 articles covering a wide range of topics grouped in ten sections: (1) forest biogeocenology; (2) forest policy, economics and management; (3) modern problems and prospects of forest inventory and state forest inventory (dedicated to the 210th anniversary of the first...

There is skepticism among various forest managers about the cultivation of quality wood using the QD method. They doubt whether the QD method produces wood of sufficient quality. Matters such as annual ring size and questions about its applicability as a veneer play a role in this. To build a...

Trees, and their derivative products, have been used by societies around the world for thousands of years. Contemporary construction of tall buildings from timber, in whole or in part, suggests a growing interest in the potential for building with wood at a scale not previously attainable. As wood...

Life cycle inventory (LCI) is the basis for calculating the environmental impacts of different products. The overall guidelines for data collection and other related aspects are standardized in ISO 14040 and 14044 standards. The importance of such studies is increasing due to the sustainability...

While knowledge on forest-linked institutional processes is gaining grounds, they require complementary evidence on the role played by actors in such change processes. This is particularly the case in sub-Saharan Africa where natural resource-based institutions are undergoing a seemingly endless...

The traditional poplar cultivation does not represent the only way to produce poplar wood: new market opportunities and new more sustainable cultivation models are appearing on the international scene. We are only reconsidering past solutions in a mo-dern key and with new knowledges and...

The aim of the paper is to analyze the Romanian forest sector trade balance using the value of main imported and exported wood-based products. Also, an overview of the production, import and export of roundwood, sawnwood, secondary processed and paper industry products is presented. Two types of...

This paper focuses on the recommendations for the insertion and management of the tree component in integrated crop-livestock-forest systems. The intensification of land use through systems integrated with trees can provide positive results as long as the tree component is adopted properly....
