Developing a novel filter material for protective gears for health care (COVID -19) from BCTMP (Bleached Chemi-Thermo-Mechanical Pulp)
DownloadFall 2021
Under the background of COVID-19 global pandemic, personal protective equipment (PPE), especially masks, has been highly demanded. Also, this high requirement has resulted in ocean pollution since the main material, polypropylene, is non-biodegradable and expensive. The production processes are...

Experimental and numerical verifications of new methods to predict gasification kinetics of char from MSW (Municipal Solid Waste) components using the TGA
DownloadFall 2021
Thermogravimetric Analyzer (TGA) is a standard state-of-the-art instrument used for investigating char gasification kinetics. However, one major flaw of the TGA is the build-up of a stagnant gas region between the empty space of the crucible mouth and the char sample layer which leads to poor...
