Palmitic acid (PA, 59.8°C) and lauric acid (LA, 42.6°C) are phase change materials (PCM) having quite high melting temperatures which can limit their use in low temperature solar applications such as solar space heating and greenhouse heating. However, their melting temperatures can be...

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the chemical exergy (eCH), the higher heating value (HHV) and the lower heating value (LHV) of liquid products obtained from catalytic fast pyrolysis of hazelnut cupulae. In this study, the first and the second law of fast pyrolysis products of a biomass...
