Particulate matter emission factors for biomass combustion
(2016-10-31)
Emission factor is a relative measure and can be used to estimate emissions from multiple sources of air pollution. For this reason, data from literature on particulate matter emission factors from different types of biomass ...
Biomass burning in Brazil`s Amazonian ""arc of deforestation"": Burning efficiency and charcoal formation in a fire after mechanized clearing at Feliz Natal, Mato Grosso
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)
Estimates of greenhouse-gas emissions from deforestation are highly uncertain because of high variability in key parameters and because of the limited number of studies providing field measurements of these parameters. One ...
Sources of particulate matter: emission profile of biomass burning
(INDERSCIENCE ENTERPRISES LTD, 2009)
Biomass burning is an important source of atmospheric Particulate Matter (PM) in Brazil: the burning of forests in the northwest and of sugar cane plantations in the southeast are important examples. The objective of this ...
Experimental aspects of biomass fuels in a bubbling fluidized bed combustor
(Elsevier B.V. Sa, 2008-09-01)
This work presents experimental information relevant to the combustion of biomass in a bubbling fluidized bed. The biomass distribution in a fluidized bed was studied through tests performed in a cold bed, while the volatiles ...

A case study of the direct radiative effect of biomass burning aerosols on precipitation in the Eastern Amazon
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2009)
Numerical experiments with the Brazilian additions to the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System were performed with two nested grids (50 and 10 km horizontal resolution, respectively) with and without the effect of biomass ...
Total sugars in atmospheric aerosols: an alternative tracer for biomass burning
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-01-01)
Ambient aerosols were collected in an agro-industrial region of Sao Paulo State (Brazil) between May 2010 and February 2012 (n = 87). The atmosphere of the study region is highly affected by the emissions of gases and ...
Laboratory evaluation of Amazon forest biomass burning emissions
(Pergamon-Elsevier B.V. Ltd, 2011-12-01)
Biomass samples representing Amazon forest native species were burned in laboratory experiments. These species were obtained in the deforestation arc, near the town of Alta Floresta, state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Moisture ...
