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 ...

An in-depth understanding of the bonding mechanism of botanical concrete (BC) can facilitate its development and improve its performance. For this purpose, six hot-pressed BC samples comprising mixtures of wood with concrete powder, carbonated concrete, and sand were prepared in this study. The...
