This paper describes the role of ambient pressure in self-heating torrefaction of livestock manure. We explored the initiating temperatures required to cause self-heating of wet dairy cattle manure at different ambient pressures (0.1, 0.4, 0.7, and 1.0 MPa). Then, we conducted proximate, elemental, and calorific analyses of biochar torrefied at…[Read more]

63-1.92). A cohort study from Japan reported while there was a significant difference of mortality rate in obese HCC patients in bivariate analysis, adjustment with other important prognostic factors with multivariate analysis found no significant correlation between obesity and HCC-related mortality rate (aHR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.83-1.22). Another…[Read more]
