  1. Value-added graphene materials from woody resources

    SBC: ACADIAN RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT LLC            Topic: 81

    This project will demonstrate the utilization of wood biomass feedstock to produce grapheneproducts through a less expensive more environmentally friendly process. The wood feedstock isfirst pyrolyzed to biochar then the process developed at the University of Wyoming converts thebiochar to graphene oxide a viable product. Further treatment produces reduced graphene oxideand graphene nanosheets als ...

  7. A Pyrolysis-Combustion Treatment for Hog Manure Lagoons to Improve Rural Flood Resilience

    SBC: Biomass Controls, LLC            Topic: 86

    U.S. hog farming is a $35 billion industry facing a pressing issue in the amount of manure theyproduce. A hog farm with 800000 hogs produces 1.6 million tons of waste per year more than thewaste produced by the city of Philadelphia. One popular manure management system is anaerobicmanure lagoons outdoor earthen basins filled with animal waste. However these lagoons areparticularly vulnerable to na ...
