We analysed the degree of price cointegration among pine log markets in northeast Argentina, Paraná State of Brazil, and Uruguay by examining price series over the period 2008--2020. We evaluated the cointegration of price series of the same product through the study regions. In the same way, we...

This study aims to further understand the effect of carbon structure on the physiochemical status of metals and thus its activity during volatile-char interactions. The chars with distinctly different carbon substrates prepared from the pyrolysis of pine sawdust at 400 and 1000°C were impregnated...

Ethanol extraction of lignocellulosic biomass under mild conditions has re-attracted considerable attention since a light-colored lignin with low molecular weight can be obtained. Unfortunately, the yield of isolated lignin for the ethanol extraction process is very limited. To enhance the...

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...

Aspen (Populus tremula L.) represents an important resource in France as far as standing wood is concerned. It often remains used for the manufacturing of pulpwood and fuelwood because no physico-chemical properties have been established. To date, PANIBOIS has used this species for manufacturing...

In order to explore the effect of high temperature heat-treatment on the machining properties of Pinus massoniana wood, the experiment were conducted on evaluating machining performance of masson pine wood untreated and treated at different temperatures according to LY/T 2054-2012 "Method for...

These proceedings contain 24 research papers and abstracts of work presented at the Sandalwood Regional Forum in Vanuatu, in 2019, and bring together the latest knowledge and insight into sandalwood production and trade for smallholder farmers across the Asia-Pacific region. The proceedings explore ...

Production of particleboards is associated with volatile organic compounds emissions, many of which have odorous properties. The objective is to determine whether the odor emissions from the production, using spruce and aspen as raw material, comply with the local odor limit defined in a specific...

Thermal radiation properties of natural wood are mainly affected by its chemical composition and physical structure. In the atmospheric transparency window (8-13 µm), cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin all have high average emissivity of 95.77%, 96.83% and 97.22%, respectively. This allows wood to ...

The paper investigates the CNC routering protocol by using advanced software for designing, simulation and processing wooden based materials, in order to obtain perforated decorations. The tests were performed on specimens made of three types of materials, namely spruce wood, poplar plywood and...
