This paper aims to describe the capability of the system boric acid–boron oxide for thermochemical energy storage. As part of the systematic research and in-depth analysis of potential solid/gas reaction systems, performed during the last years...
This paper is a literature survey that focuses on the present development of thermokinetic publications. It demonstrates that in recent years pyrolysis kinetics has turned into a major application of the thermokinetics. Analysis of the respective pub...
This paper presents a study of the thermal and rheological properties of isosorbide, showing that its degradation temperature (around 100 °C) is much lower than values previously proposed in the literature. Furthermore, remarkable calorimetric an...
Natural fibers have been widely employed in different fields as composite materials. However, the thermal behavior of natural materials is not fully understood since the chemical components chemically interact with each other. Put simply, the thermal...
Automotive Shredder Residue (ASR), a waste when metals are mostly removed from end-of-life vehicles, has constituents similar to municipal solid waste (MSW) consisting of plastics, rubber, textiles, and some metals. The processing of ASR is a challen...

Polyolefin (PO) polymers constitute the majority of consumer plastic commodities. The reliance on such materials make it near imposable to avoid touching one in any given day. Therefore, the accumulation of plastic solid waste (PSW) in developed and...
The pyrolysis of municipal solid waste (MSW) is an efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally beneficial thermochemical treatment method. A macro thermogravimetric analyzer (Macro TGA) was used to study the pyrolysis behavior of cedar and polyeth...
