Exploiting biomass energy is a promising option to reduce CO 2 emissions, owing to its
renewability and carbon neutrality. The knowledge of biomass ignition becomes critical for …

Thermal hazards of reactive chemicals have been a major concern due to the unceasing
occurrences of fire and explosion accidents in industry. Understanding thermal threats of …

As a renewable fuel, the application of biomass fuel gets more and more attention. Fire and
explosion are the main safety problems in the biomass fuel storage process. The …

To better grasp developments and trends in research on spontaneous combustion disasters
around the world and to promote theoretical research into their prevention and control …

Spontaneous combustion often occurs when carbonaceous materials are stored for a long
time. Up to now, domestic and foreign scholars have done a lot of research on the …

Biomass is an especially reactive fuel. There have been large increases in the transportation
and utilization of biomass fuels over the past 10 years and this has raised concerns over its …

Storage of bulk biomass materials is essential along the feedstock supply chain of bioenergy
production. The self-heating accompanying biomass storage has hazardous consequences …

Pulverised coal in industrial sites and their dust can experience spontaneous combustion
and self-heating, increasing the risk of fire and dust explosion. The main objective of the …

The main objective of this work was to investigate the ignition behavior of two Turkish
biomass residues (almond shell and olive residue) and two Turkish lignite coals (Tunçbilek …

This paper addresses the problem of estimating solid biofuel flowability, with particular
reference to arching phenomena in silo discharge. The flow properties and the tendency to …
