Cement industry is an intensive source of fuel consumption and greenhouse gases (GHGs)
emissions. This industry is responsible for 5% of GHGs emissions and is among the top …

Cement industry has been always among the largest CO2 emission sources. Almost 5–7%
of global CO2 emissions are caused by cement plants, while 900 kg CO2 is emitted to the …

Currently, fossil fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas represent the prime energy sources in
the world. However, it is anticipated that these sources of energy will deplete within the next …

Energy from biomass, bioenergy, is a perspective source to replace fossil fuels in the future,
as it is abundant, clean, and carbon dioxide neutral. Biomass can be combusted directly to …

An extended overview of the phase-mineral transformations of organic and inorganic matter
that occur during biomass combustion was conducted. Some general considerations and …

The torrefaction of biomass is a thermochemical process based on the de composition of
hemicellulose, which is the dominant reaction, while the cellulose and lignin fractions …

This work examined acid gas emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, carbon dioxide,
and hydrogen chloride from co-firing biomass (corn straw and rice husk) with either a high …

The use of fossil fuels as an energy source and platform of fuel additives can be decreased
through the use of woody biomass as a raw material in different conversion processes. In …

Integrated supplier selection and order allocation is an important decision for both designing
and operating supply chains. This decision is often influenced by the concerned …

The development of renewable energy sources has clearly emerged as a promising policy
towards enhancing the fragile global energy system with its limited fossil fuel resources, as …
