Les foyers font partie de la vie courante. Chaque ménage en utilise pour la cuisson de ses repas. Dans le tiers-monde, la plupart des populations utilisent surtout des foyers à combustibles ligneux. Les effets négatifs sur l’environnement sont aujou [...]

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the amounts of various pyrolysis products ( gases, water, tar and charcoal) from three biomasses ( wood, coconut shell and straw) and to suggest a kinetic equation for the thermal cracking of tar at temperat [...]
