Synergistic effects of lignin and cellulose during pyrolysis of agricultural waste. (2018)
Journal Article
Volpe, R., Zabaniotou, A. A., & Skoulou, V. (2018). Synergistic effects of lignin and cellulose during pyrolysis of agricultural waste. Energy and Fuels, 32(8), 8420-8430. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.energyfuels.8b00767

© 2018 American Chemical Society. Varying lignin and cellulose contents in agro-waste cause feed-stock to respond differently during their thermochemical conversion. The effect of pyrolysis temperature (400, 500, 600oC) and feedstock composition on p... Read More about Synergistic effects of lignin and cellulose during pyrolysis of agricultural waste..

Investigation and simulation of the transport of gas containing mercury in microporous silica membranes (2018)
Journal Article
Ji, G., George, A., Skoulou, V., Reed, G., Millan, M., Hooman, K., …Diniz da Costa, J. C. (2018). Investigation and simulation of the transport of gas containing mercury in microporous silica membranes. Chemical engineering science, 190, 286-296. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ces.2018.06.006

This work investigates the effect of condensable Hg vapour on the transport of N2 gas across cobalt oxide silica (CoOxSi) membranes. Experimental results suggest that Hg significantly affects N2 permeation at 100 and 200°C, though this effect is negl...
