Inproving Forest Residue Quality Through Air Classification and Specific Gravity Separation

摘要

1. Achieve the science-based preprocessing approaches needed to :1.1 Identify new sources of renewable feedstocks that already exist1.2 Reduce fire loading in our national forests1.3 Develop new markets for forest residues2. Build the capability for mechanistic understanding of material deconstruction to enable revolutionary developments in preprocessing science that will:2.1 Improve product quality ie., reduce soil and inorganic contamination2.2 Separate anatomical fractions for potential product specific markets.
