In this inaugural issue, the Co-Editors of BioResources would like to welcome you. In your role as a reader, we welcome you to download scholarly articles and opinion pieces; this is an open-access journal, providing a maximum of potential impact.…

Although this journal mainly considers the study of cellulosic materials as sources of structural wood, fibers, chemicals, energy, and products such as paper, it would be short-sighted to view all trees as existing in order to meet such needs. An…

Three commercial silicone emulsions with different functional groups i.e., quat-silicone micro-emulsion (

Pulp evaluations traditionally use plate dried handsheets. The evaluation of pulp could be improved significantly by evaluating handsheets that freely shrink when dried at the same time.

This work presents a state estimator for a continuous bioprocess. To this aim, the Non Linear Filtering theory based on the recursive application of Bayes rule and Monte Carlo techniques is used. Recursive Bayesian Filters Sampling Importance Resampling (SIR) is…

This paper evaluates and discusses multifactor non-linear, statistical dependencies of drill side-edges recession VBK and drill diameter recession DW on the cutting path length LC, the content of hard mineral contaminants CMC, the size of contaminant particles SMC, and the…

The use of ionic liquids (ILs) in the field of cellulose chemistry opens up a broad variety of new opportunities. Besides the regeneration of the biopolymer to fibers, films, and beads, this new class of cellulose solvents is particularly useful…

Traditional chemical industry depends on non-renewable fossil resources and is now facing great challenges. Lignocellulosic materials are the most abundant renewable resources in the world, and their efficient utilization provides a practical route to maintain sustainable development of chemical industry.…

In this paper the dependencies of the degree of surface burning and intensity during disc sanding perpendicular to the wood grains of Fagus silvatica L. were examined for several machining parameters. Significant impacts of sanding load, thickness, and width of…

Mechanical compression and electrolyte infusion of wood, pyrolysis and chemical activation of charcoals have resulted in enhanced abilities absorb lead ion and benzene from model polluted water solutions. Iodine number and methylene blue indeces also reveal enhancement of surface activity.…
