Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomass, coal, and solid wastes (organic) are relevant to society’s development, and it is known that their amounts are large. Biomass, coal, and solid wastes (organic) are typically composed of the elements C, H, O, N, S, and others, and they are regarded as carriers of energy and resources. In addition, their use is related to CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions. Therefore, the development and utilization of three resources with high efficiency and low emissions are promising for the future.
Combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis are developing and valuable utilization methods for biomass, coal, and solid wastes (organic). Besides, there are still novel and valuable research projects in the energy and chemistry fields to develop relevant technologies.
This Special Issue on “Development and Utilization of Biomass, Coal and Organic Solid Wastes” intends to present examples of the treatment and utilization of biomass, coal and organic solid wastes. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Composition analysis of biomass, coal, and organic solid wastes;
- Treatment method and mechanism;
- Utilization method and mechanism;
- Reactor design and optimization;
- Process analysis and optimization;
- Economic analysis and guidance;
- Product utilization and mechanism;
- Biochar and pyrolytic char of coal and organic solid waste.
