In this research cellulose nanofibers (CNF) were successfully extracted from rice straw through a chemomechanical method and then mixed with urea-formaldehyde (UF) adhesive for the production of medium density fiberboard (MDF). The industrial grade liquid urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin with formaldehyde: urea molar ratio of 1.15 was modified by adding 0.5, 1.5 and 2 wt \% of nanofibrillated cellulose (CNF) based on UF resin solids. The morphology, gel time, viscosity, and the non-volatile solid content of the modified UF adhesive were investigated. Formaldehyde emission and some mechanical properties modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE) and internal bond strength (IB)) of the resulting MDF panels were measured. Solids content and viscosity of the UF adhesive decreased while gel time increased by mixing CNF with the resin. The formaldehyde emission of the panels made with UF containing CNF was lower than that of the panels made from neat UF while MOR, MOE and IB values increased by increasing the CNF content in the panels.

In this study, modification of European beech wood (Fagus sylvatica) through in situ esterification of sorbitol and citric acid (SorCA) was investigated at two curing temperatures, 140 and 160 degrees C. In order to determine the optimum condition for modification, an aqueous solution of SorCA at varying concentrations was evaluated (10, 20, 30, and 55\% w/w). Physical, mechanical, chemical, and durability properties of the modified wood were examined. Results have disclosed that among different SorCA concentrations, treatment with SorCA at 30\% w/w was considered as the optimum concentration independent of the curing temperature. Under these conditions, anti-swelling efficiency increased to approx. 55\% and modulus of elasticity increased slightly with approx. 9\% in comparison with untreated wood. Decay resistance against white-rot (Trametes versicolor), brown-rot (Coniphora puteana), and soft-rotting microfungi classified the SorCA-30\%-modified wood as very durable. In addition, thermogravimetric study evidenced that SorCA 30\%-modified wood has a lower thermal decomposition temperature in comparison with untreated wood/wood control by 20 degrees C difference, indicating that the SorCA-modified wood possibly has fire-retardant properties. However, due to the acidic properties of the SorCA solution, modulus of rupture (MOR) and mainly work to maximum load in bending decreased considerably.

In building environments, several research on dynamic moisture storage in hygroscopic building materials has improved interest in moisture buffering capacity of bio-based materials and demonstrated the potential of these materials to improve thermal comfort and buildings energy consumption. This paper presents an investigation, which aims to compare the hygroscopic behavior of different bio-based materials to identify their hygric proprieties. For this, an experimental facility is used to measure the moisture buffer value (MBV) for different categories of building materials. Thereafter, a dynamic simulation has been carried out by using TRNSYS software in order to evaluate heating and cooling loads. The results showed that the wood-cement composite still has excellent moisture regulator when compared to wood panels or fibrous materials. It has a buffer capacity superior to 3 [g/m(2).\% RH] very close to that of wood fiber panels. The simulation results of the different cases showed that the insulation reduces significantly total energy demand, but it does not lead heat evacuation in the summer season. Thus, from this study, it can be concluded that a natural ventilation mechanism is recommended to improve energy efficiency in the building.

Studying the cutting forces during wood machining by a removal process is crucial to ensure high surface quality, maximum precision and to minimize chattering phenomena. Currently, industrial tasks and research works concerning using serial robots for wood machining are rare, which can be explained by the low stiffness of such machines. High cutting forces with low machine rigidity undeniably disturb robot behaviour during wood machining. The machined surface quality and machining process performance will be degraded, causing toolpath deviation and dimensional errors. Therefore, operating time and cost will be high. To overcome this issue, the present research focuses on how to ameliorate robotic wood machining by studying the link between cutting forces and accuracy while machining wood using a serial robot. This study deals with three major constraints, low robot accuracy, low stiffness and high cutting forces.

In this work, beech wood has been submitted to fractionation and hydrothermal liquefaction in order to produce fermentable carbohydrates. Fractionation either by ethanol organosolv or by sodium chlorite/acetic acid (SC/AA) treatment allowed obtaining delignification yields of 50 and 91 wt.\% respectively. The recovered pulps were then submitted to liquefaction in hot-compressed water (HCW). Three temperatures were studied: 180, 200, and 220 degrees C during 2 h. The same experiments were conducted on untreated beech and model cellulose (Avicel PH-101). Product yields and total carbohydrates were determined. The liquefaction products, i.e., solid residue, water-soluble compounds, and permanent gas, were analyzed respectively by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detector (HPAEC-PAD), and gas chromatography (GC). SC/AA treatment allowed a high recovery of hemicelluloses and for this reason, xylose content was significantly higher than for the organosolv pulp. The maximum yields of total carbohydrates (based on the initial carbohydrates in wood), found when the liquefaction temperature was 220 degrees C, increased from 9.0 wt.\% for the raw beech to 13.5 and 33.7 wt.\% for the organosolv and SC/AA pulps respectively.

The effect on the entropy production and MHD convection of the hybrid nanofluid Al2O3-Cu/water (water with Cu and Al2O3 nanoparticles) in a porous square enclosure is studied numerically via Galerkin finite element method. The enclosure used for flow and natural convection analysis is subjected to sinusoidal varying temperatures at the boundaries. Calculations were performed for specific parameters of the Rayleigh number (Ra = 10(3)-10(6)), porosity ratio (epsilon = 0.1-0.9), Darcy number (Da = 10(-5)-10(-2)), Hartmann number (Ha = 0-100) and nanoparticles concentration (phi = 0-0.08). The numerical results are presented by velocity profiles, isotherms, streamlines, and Nusselt number. They indicate that the isotherms subject to estimation variations under Ha boost from 0 to 100 as Ra enhances. At high Ha, the conduction transfer mechanism is more obvious. Also, it is seen that the convective heat transfer becomes stronger with the enhancement of the Ra while it detracts with the rise in Ha. Due to the Ra increase, the flow cell becomes stronger. For Ra = 10(6) and higher Hartmann numbers, the isotherms remain constant which is an indication of convection predominance.

Over the past few years, nanocellulose (NC), cellulose in the form of nanostructures, has been proved to be one of the most prominent green materials of modern times. NC materials have gained growing interests owing to their attractive and excellent characteristics such as abundance, high aspect ratio, better mechanical properties, renewability, and biocompatibility. The abundant hydroxyl functional groups allow a wide range of functionalizations via chemical reactions, leading to developing various materials with tunable features. In this review, recent advances in the preparation, modification, and emerging application of nanocellulose, especially cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), are described and discussed based on the analysis of the latest investigations (particularly for the reports of the past 3 years). We start with a concise background of cellulose, its structural organization as well as the nomenclature of cellulose nanomaterials for beginners in this field. Then, different experimental procedures for the production of nanocelluloses, their properties, and functionalization approaches were elaborated. Furthermore, a number of recent and emerging uses of nanocellulose in nanocomposites, Pickering emulsifiers, wood adhesives, wastewater treatment, as well as in new evolving biomedical applications are presented. Finally, the challenges and opportunities of NC-based emerging materials are discussed.

A validation was performed by comparing with similar configuration from the literature. It was found that our model can accurately predict the pressure driven flow in microchannels. Several interesting findings are reported about the Relative pressure, longitudinal velocity, Mach number, effect of gas rarefaction and flow rate.

Termite resistance of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) modified with a combination of chemical and thermal methods was investigated in field tests. Modification was performed by impregnating different aqueous solutions of glycerol maleate or polyglycerol maleate at different concentrations (10 or 40\%, w/w) into the wood, followed by thermal treatment at different temperatures (180, 200, or 220 degrees C). Field tests were conducted for one-year at Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. All wood samples treated with the combination of chemical and thermal modifications presented significantly higher termite resistance than thermally modified and untreated wood samples. Curing at 200 or 220 degrees C resulted in better performance with mass losses due to termite attack of less than 5\%.

The natural durability of wood species, defined as their inherent resistance to wood-destroying agents, is a complex phenomenon depending on many biotic and abiotic factors. Besides the presence of recalcitrant polymers, the presence of compounds with antimicrobial properties is known to be important to explain wood durability. Based on the advancement in our understanding of fungal detoxification systems, a reverse chemical ecology approach was proposed to explore wood natural durability using fungal glutathione transferases. A set of six glutathione transferases from the white-rot Trametes versicolor were used as targets to test wood extracts from seventeen French Guiana neotropical species. Fluorescent thermal shift assays quantified interactions between fungal glutathione transferases and these extracts. From these data, a model combining this approach and wood density significantly predicts the wood natural durability of the species tested previously using long-term soil bed tests. Overall, our findings confirm that detoxification systems could be used to explore the chemical environment encountered by wood-decaying fungi and also wood natural durability.

Energy and buildings are increasingly becoming subjects for investigations, especially for the indoor air quality domain coupled to energy demand. The physics of fluids flowing inside enclosures bring basic models to understand and build better schemes. This paper is devoted to studying ventilation strategies in regards to Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and energy efficiency in floor refreshing houses. A room model is considered in a simplified level, as a cavity heated on the external sidewall and cooled on the bottom ground surface. The external air injector is at variable positions and interacting with the needed cooling power; the air quality (mixing ability) and thermal comfort are also studied. The cooling efficiency inside the considered volume and the average air temperature are analyzed for a given temperature difference characterizing the natural convection level (Rayleigh number, Ra = 10(6)) and a horizontal ventilation (moderate Reynolds number Re = 10(2)). An obtained complex flow structure indicates that the natural convection and the forced flow (ventilation) act directly on the resulting patterns, mixing ability, heat exchange which in a straight line affect the thermal comfort and in fine the energy cost (cooling requirement).

The goal is to produce cottonized hemp fibers with improved thermal stability. It was first found that the fine hemp fibers produced from technical non-retted hemp fibers by steam explosion exhibited an enhanced thermal stability. An efficient and low-cost process was developed using a mixture of urea/etidronic acid in aqueous solution in order to achieve a high phosphorus content and produce flame retardant fibers by chemical grafting. ICP, P-31 and C-13 NMR, SEM, thermogravimetric, Pyrolysis-Combustion Flow Calorimetry analyses and a flame test were used to characterize the grafted fibers. Fibers modified with relatively high P and N contents have been produced (approximate to 6 wt \% and approximate to 4 wt \% respectively) but lower grafting rates (P approximate to 0.5 \% and N approximate to 0.35 \%) are sufficient to produce non-flammable fibers. A synergistic effect between N and P has been proposed to induce the formation of a stable char.

The organosilane-modified Saharan kaolin (KS) was prepared and tested as an adsorbent for Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) and Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution in comparison with original Saharan kaolin (K). Characterization of modified clay material and original clay was carried out by different methods (XRD, FTIR, TGA and SEM) in order to establish the link between synthesis, structures and properties. The hydrophilic properties of the clay surface have been modified, but not turned into hydrophobic ones. The graft has indeed a polar amine group and the chain length is too short to present an important hydrophobic character. The adsorption of heavy metal ions onto APTES-modified kaolin showed greater efficiency than original kaolin. The adsorption of metal ions by the original kaolin is dominated by the cation exchange phenomenon with a preferential order of selectivity: Cu(II)\>Ni(II)\>Co(II)\>Cd(II), while adsorption on KS is mainly dominated by attraction of the chelating group of the amine in the same order of selectivity. This new hybrid organic-inorganic material may be a good alternative for separation and preconcentration of heavy metal ions.

Many wood processing industries use short rotation teak, which has lower quality especially in durability and dimensional stability. Heat treatment is an eco-friendly method to improve dimensional stability and durability of wood. The objectives of the study were to investigate the effects of thermal modification on chemical composition, colour, dimensional stability and durability as well as coating\&$\#$39;s performance after accelerated weathering of short and long rotation teak for exterior utilization. In this study, the samples were heated in oven at 220 degrees C for 20 h under nitrogen atmosphere. Results showed that independently of growth conditions teak woods underwent hemicelluloses degradation and an increase of lignin content after heat treatment. Extractives contents were lower in short rotation than in long rotation teak, and decreased in all cases after heat treatments. Dimensional stability was considerably improved as indicated by anti-swelling efficiency values of 64,9\% and 58,9\% for short and long rotation teak, respectively. Heated teak woods were more resistant against Trametes versicolor and the durability of short-rotation teak increased from moderate to very durable. Coatings on heat treated teaks had better bonding quality and better photo-stability when compared to unheated. Heated short rotation teak could be considered for exterior application.

Results revealed that synergic effects between a combination of light chemical modification and thermal treatments can be observed at higher temperature treatments (200 and 220 degrees C), improving wood dimensional stability (approximately 80\%), decay, and termite resistance properties. However, MOE and MOR values decreased by approximately 30\% and 60\%, respectively. Treated samples resulting from the combination of chemical and thermal treatment performed at 220 degrees C present improved durability against the termites R. flavipes.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the maturation process of sweet marjoram (Origanum majorana L.) on essential oil composition, the phenolic profile of ethanolic extract and their antioxidant capacities. The essential oil composition was studied at three stages of maturity by GC-MS. Thirty compounds were detected representing 100\% of the total essential oil. p-Menth-1-en-4-ol was the major compound (37.15-76.94\%) followed by cyclohexanol-3,3,5 trimethyl (5.41-15.99\%) and alpha-terpineol (0.94-11.34\%). During the maturation process, an accumulation of oxygenated monoterpenes was observed. The phenolic composition was studied using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight. The analysis showed the presence of short flavonoid monomers at all stages of maturation. The antioxidant capacity of ethanolic extracts and essential oils was evaluated using the DPPH assay, iron chelating power and reducing power assay. The highest phenolic content and antioxidant capacity were found at flowering stage. These findings on essential oil composition, phenolic profile and antioxidant capacity of O. majorana at three different stages of development provide more information on how these secondary metabolites are accumulated.

The caryopses of barley become firmly adhered to the husk during grain development through a cuticular cementing layer on the caryopsis surface. The degree of this attachment varies among cultivars, with poor quality adhesion causing \"skinning\", an economically significant grain quality defect for the malting industry. Malting cultivars encompassing a range of husk adhesion qualities were grown under a misting treatment known to induce skinning. Development of the cementing layer was examined by electron microscopy and compositional changes of the cementing layer were investigated with gas-chromatography followed by mass spectroscopy. Changes in gene expression during adhesion development were examined with a custom barley microarray. The abundance of transcripts involved early in cuticular lipid biosynthesis, including those encoding acetyl-CoA carboxylase, and all four members of the fatty acid elongase complex of enzymes, was significantly higher earlier in caryopsis development than later. Genes associated with subsequent cuticular lipid biosynthetic pathways were also expressed higher early in development, including the decarbonylation and reductive pathways, and sterol biosynthesis. Changes in cuticular composition indicate that lowered proportions of alkanes and higher proportions of fatty acids are associated with development of good quality husk adhesion, in addition to higher proportions of sterols.

The characteristics of urea-formaldehyde (UF) adhesives condensed by catalysis with four different acids, namely formic (HCOOH), hydrochloric (HCl), phosphoric (H3PO4), and sulfuric (H2SO4) acids, under alkaline-acidic-alkaline conditions at a molar ratio F/U = 1.12 were studied. The thermal curing properties of UF adhesives catalyzed with acid were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry at 10 degrees C/min heating rate. The resin structure examined by C-13-NMR spectroscopy showed that the resin catalyzed with HCl had a lower proportion of methylol groups, resulting in a lower level of formaldehyde emission. It was interesting to note that HCOOH resulted in the best overall mechanical properties of the medium-density fiberboard (MDF) panels. The HCl catalyst resulted in the poorest performance, providing the lowest internal bond strength, modulus of elasticity, and thickness swelling, with the exception of the free formaldehyde content. The resin catalyzed with H2SO4 had the highest free formaldehyde and the highest formaldehyde emission. H2SO4 and H3PO4 resulted in MDF mechanical properties relatively lower than for HCOOH.

After demethylation, eucalyptus pyrolysis oil has higher reactivity with formaldehyde in alkaline media than the raw oil. The objective of the present work was to evaluate the effect of adding polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (PMDI) on a demethylated oil-based adhesive.

Demethylated oil-based adhesive was analyzed by MALDI-TOF. Plywood panels were produced with adhesives supplemented with 0, 4, 8, 16 and 20\% PMDI and an extra treatment applying a reference phenolic adhesive. The experiment encompassed six treatments with four replicates, totaling 24 panels. As demonstrated by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis, the demethylation reaction was effective in removing methyl groups from the methoxyls of syringol and derivatives, turning them, respectively, into pyrogallol and its derivatives. PMDI was effective as a cross-linking agent, enhancing the mechanical performance of the original demethylated-pyrolysis-oil adhesive. In dry condition and after boiling test, plywood manufactured with formulations adding 16 and 20\% PMDI had shear strengths statistically equal to panels bonded with the reference phenolic adhesive.

Several solutions based on phase change materials (PCM) are used for the thermal regulation of buildings. In this study, a combination of the inertial effect of PCM and intra-ventilation regulation is proposed. The purpose is to increase the thermal inertia of the building envelope leading to a fast passive and active cooling of the indoor environment. The principle of the solution is the use of a polymer-stabilized paraffin in external walls integrating ventilation pipes. For that, an experimental study of a hollow concrete block with PCM and ventilation tubes is conducted to test its thermal response. Gathered to this part, a 3D numerical model is developed under COMSOL Multiphysics (R). The obtained simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental data. A parametric study is then performed including its actual characteristics against several conditions; it is revealed that the use of PCM gathered to the ventilation tubes enhances the thermal phase shift. It is stated that the forced ventilation through the tubes makes it possible to manage the energy and contribute to the renewal of the air.

This study presented the behavior of a laboratory scale solar dryer, which was designed with the objective of meeting the needs of low income carpenters of the tropical region of Africa. The following materials were used to build the solar dryer: aluminum sheets painted in black, a wooden support, and a plastic polyethylene used as a cover. Drying was carried out in the city of Yaounde in Cameroon, and the tested boards were ebony (Diospyros crassiflora). Drying must be performed with the following conditions: slow process at a low temperature in order to maintain the proper air relative humidity. Since, no apparatus was used to force the circulation of the air, natural convection was the mode used by the dryer. The solar dryer was mathematically modeled by applying heat and mass transfer balance to the different components of the solar dryer. It is important to mention that the used heat and mass coefficients were proposed as variable with the operating conditions. The mathematical model was a reasonable description of the physical phenomena taking place in the dryer. The results show that the average relative error between numerical and experimental moisture contents was equal to 2.102\%. Heat transfer convective coefficients and global mass transfer coefficients varied with drying time from 0.25 to 5.5 W/(m(2)K) and from 1 x 10(-8) to 5.5 x 10(-8) m/s, respectively. The proposed model allowed designing and dimensioning the solar dryer, to the industrial scale. It allowed following the evolution of the different temperatures and moisture content of the tested material and then optimizing the design of the dryer and the drying process conditions. Based on the model, proposing the opening of the drying chamber during the night time and the use of substances capable of retaining heat in the chamber were some proposed solutions in order to have more efficient drying process. The modeling results showed also that an improvement can be obtained at the addition of a solar collector.

The bio-based materials have experienced in recent years a relevant evolution in construction and for many building applications. Despite the efforts to develop new solutions to achieve the objectives of numerical characterizations a few researches in this area have been carried out using a heterogeneous wood-cement composite. This study is based on a constructive approach using the finite volume method in order to generate a numerical model capable of reproducing;the equivalent transfer properties of a wood-cement composite. The challenge is to understand, design, and control this multiphase inhornogeneous structure and predict transfers and flows within the community in order to achieve an optimal functionality. Experimental measurements and microscopic characterization using X-ray microtomography were performed to compare and demonstrate the method validation. The comparative results demonstrate a less than 100\% deviation between the measurements and the simulations of the equivalent thermal properties. Thus, thermal conductivity and permeability, under different medium configurations, were characterized. Therefore, it was observed that these properties depend strongly on the porosity and the pore distribution in the continuous phase. Moreover, these two parameters are highly dependent on cement percentages in the structure.

Recently, there has been a rapid growth in research and innovation in the synthesis of UF resins in the wood based composites area. Much effort has gone into increasing their mechanical performance to extend the capabilities and application of this group of materials. This paper, for the first time, defines the research on the use of ammonium salts not as hardeners but in the synthesis of OF resins. The objective of this study was to investigated the effects of various types of catalysts (ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride, sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid) during UF resins synthesis on formaldehyde emission and characteristics of urea formaldehyde (UF) adhesives for the manufacture of medium density fiberboard. These were investigated by C-13 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (C-13 NMR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and as a result some of the physical and mechanical properties of medium density fiberboard (MDF) panels bonded with different OF resins were evaluated. The resins structure examined by C-13 NMR spectroscopy showed that a resin catalyzed by (NH4)(2)SO4 had a higher proportion of hydroxymethyl groups (mostly -HN-CH2OH) resulting in a higher level of formaldehyde emission. A resin catalyzed by NH4Cl gave the highest proportion of methylene groups. A resin catalyzed by H2SO4 yielded the highest proportion of methylene groups in di- or tri-substituted ureas but the lowest proportion of mono-substituted urea. It was of interest that (NH4)(2)SO4 catalyzed UF adhesive yielded the best overall mechanical properties for the medium density fiber board (MDF) bonded with it. Conversely, it also presented the shortest shelf life and gelled in about 15 days, which could be related to its high reactivity and shortest gel time. Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF) panels bonded with UF adhesives without any ammonium salt (thus with either H2SO4 or HCl) had lower IB strength, MOR and MOE. The HCl catalyst was considered to be chemically least active, yielding the lowest cohesive energy, and resulted in panels presenting a poor performance as shown by their lowest IB (internal bond) strength, modulus of elasticity (MOE), and modulus of rupture (MOR) and highest thickness swelling, with the exception of the free formaldehyde content.

The synergic effect between a mild chemical and thermal modification of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica) has been studied. A low concentration of additives based on vinylic-polyglycerol, vinylic-glycerol, and maleic anhydride was impregnated into beech wood, followed by curing under different temperature conditions at 103, 150, 200, and 220 degrees C. The modified wood was then analyzed for its leaching resistance, dimensional stability, wettability, modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) in bending, decay resistance against Trametes versicolor, and termite resistance against Reticulitermes flavipes. Results have disclosed a synergic effect of thermo-chemical wood modification under 200 and 220 degrees C curing conditions. At these curing temperatures, thermo-chemically modified beech presents improved dimensional stability (\> 60\%) and better resistance against both Trametes versicolor and Reticulitermes flavipes compared to the control. However, at the same conditions, MOE and MOR values were lowered by approximately 25\% and 60\%, respectively.

In the context of improving energy efficiency and thermal comfort in the building, the use of phase change materials (PCMs) is one of the suggested solutions. The proposed integration solutions concern the building envelope as well as the applications related to its operation. The study of the incorporation of PCM in the walls of the building was the subject of numerous works. However, the antisymmetric character of storing/recovering energy management in the walls is less controlled and do not fit the optimal conditions. In this study, a solution based on the direct integration of a stabilized PCM (gel) in an envelope including ventilation channels, was proposed to overcome this problem of antisymmetry storing/recovering and fitting with different fixed ambient conditions. The final aim is to develop the optimization strategy of a wall combining the heavy inertia offered by the PCM, intra-ventilation control and the contribution to air renewal energy demand.

In this context, an experimental study of a concrete block system is conducted to test the thermal response of this configuration by the application of cyclic solicitations. The comprehension of this integrated constructive solution essentially passes by the possession of validated numerical tools. For this, two models have been developed. The first model using the electrical-thermal analogy, based on an RC equivalence, is distinguished by its relative simplicity and weak time computing demand. Each of these two factors, R and C summarise the system properties and has a direct influence on the building transient simulations over a year. The second one is based on direct numerical simulation DNS of the energy and fluid flow equations using commercial code COMSOL Multiphysics. Such DNS is time consuming and could not be used to simulate over a year but aims only to validate the first RC circuit approach. A comparison of these two models with the idealised experimental data was carried out and allowed the validation of the thermal behaviour of the solution based on the integration of the PCM with core ventilation.

Good quality husk-caryopsis adhesion is essential for malting barley, but that quality is influenced by caryopsis surface lipid composition. Raman spectroscopy was applied to lipid extracts from barley caryopses of cultivars with differential adhesion qualities. Principal component regression indicated that Raman spectroscopy can distinguish among cultivars with good and poor quality adhesion due to differences in compounds associated with adhesion quality.

In this research furfuryl alcohol (FA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) in different ratio were added to a tannin based adhesive in order to improve its moisture resistance. In order to characterize the functional groups involved, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to study the thermal behaviour of the formulations. FTIR spectroscopy indicated the reaction of quebracho tannin with FA and PEI. The results of the TGA showed that the added FA and PEI increased the resistance to thermal degradation. DSC analysis showed that the added FA and PEI reduced the heat absorption peak. According to the tensile shear strength of the formulations, the adhesive formulation T-1 F-0.75 P-20 (mixing proportion: Tannin 1, FA 0.75, PEI 20\%) was able to satisfy the standards requirements (BS 1204-2) as a moisture resistant adhesive. Furthermore, this formulation presented the best tensile shear tests results and the least number of delaminated samples.

To construct calcium carbonate skeletons of sophisticated architecture, scleractinian corals secrete an extra cellular skeletal organic matrix (SOM) from aboral ectodermal cells. The SOM, which is composed of proteins, saccharides, and lipids, performs functions critical for skeleton formation. Even though polysaccharides constitute the major component of the SOM, its contribution to coral skeleton formation is poorly understood. To this end, we analyzed the SOM of the massive colonial coral, Porites australiensis, the skeleton of which has drawn great research interest because it records environmental conditions throughout the life of the colony. The coral skeleton was extensively cleaned, decalcified with acetic acid, and organic fractions were separated based on solubility. These fractions were analyzed using various techniques, including SDS-PAGE, FT-IR, in vitro crystallization, CHNS analysis, chromatography analysis of monosaccharide and enzyme-linked lectin assay (ELLA). We confirmed the acidic nature of SOM and the presence of sulphate, which is thought to initiate CaCO3 crystallization. In order to analyze glycan structures, we performed ELLA on the soluble SOM for the first time and found that it exhibits strong specificity to Datura stramonium lectin (DSL). Furthermore, using biotinylated DSL with anti-biotin antibody conjugated to nanogold, in situ localization of DSL-binding polysaccharides in the P. australiensis skeleton was performed. Signals were distributed on the surfaces of fiber-like crystals of the skeleton, suggesting that polysaccharides may modulate crystal shape. Our study emphasizes the importance of sugar moieties in biomineralization of scleractinian corals.

Key message Teak (Tectona grandis L.f.) is one of the most important tropical hardwood tree species, which is widely planted in Indonesia. Wood properties are strongly influenced by forest management conditioning further utilization of wood.

Context In Indonesia, teak wood has been supplied from the state forests (Perhutani) for long rotation teak and from community teak plantations for short rotation teak. Short rotation teak has been harvested at 7-10 years and long rotation teak at 40-60 years.

Aims This paper discusses the characterization of technical properties of short and long rotation teak wood based on the chemical, anatomical, physical, and mechanical properties.

Methods The properties of short rotation and long rotation teak woods were characterized by measuring their density, extractive contents, chemical composition, swelling, wettability, water sorption isotherm, decay resistance, anatomical properties, bending strength (modulus of rupture (MOR), modulus of elasticity (MOE)), and hardness.

Results The results indicate that short rotation teak was not particularly different in swelling, MOE and MOR, and Brinell hardness compared to long rotation teak, although it was less dense and less durable due to lower heartwood and extractive contents. Therefore, careful attention should be given to the use of short rotation teak in some wood-processing technologies.

Conclusion Lower wood density and durability of the short rotation compared to the long rotation teak will restrict its utilization to some extent for both indoor and outdoor applications. Fast-growing teak from community cannot be used as usual heartwood teak from Perhutani because of the very low proportion of useful heartwood in the stem.

In industry, formalin and urea formaldehyde condensates (UFC) are used for the preparation of urea-formaldehyde adhesives. The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of a UF resin prepared with formalin (42\% concentration) and two kinds of UFC with various urea content (F/U similar to 5 and 4.3 malar ratio). The resins were prepared with final molar ratio F/U = 1.1. The UF resin with formalin showed better mechanical properties than those with UFC. The C-13 NMR and FT-IR results indicated that methylene, methylene ether and urons groups in a UF resin prepared with formalin were present in higher proportion than observed in industrial UF resins. The DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) results showed that the curing temperature of a UF resin prepared with formalin is lower than that of a UF resin prepared with UFC. The mechanical properties of MDFs prepared with the three types of adhesives showed that MDFs bonded with a UF prepared with formalin yields a better mechanical properties than MDFs prepared with a UF resin based on UFC. Moreover, resin synthesized with UFC (F/U = 5) result in higher IBS (internal bond strength) MOR (modulus of rupture), MOE (modulus of elasticity), TS (thickness swelling) and formaldehyde emission (FE) than resin synthesized with UFC (F/U = 4.3). The MDF bonded with the UF2 resin presented poor results, with the highest TS and the lowest IBS, MOE, MOR and FE.

We investigate the mechanical and thermal properties of a composite structure manufactured from polypropylene matrix reinforced with marine waste fibers. Posidonia oceanica. We show that this fiber largely available on Mediterranean coasts presents many advantages compared to other natural fibers conventionally used as reinforcement. In fact, Posidonia fiber is extracted easily with only mechanical action. Moreover, it enhances the mechanical properties of the whole composite without any need of compatibilizers due to its hydrophobicity. Finally, apart from the mechanical performances, we demonstrate that the incorporation of the fiber with high ratio does not degrade its thermal properties which are a specificity of thermally resistant fibers that could open a wide range of applications.

Acid copper chromate fixation reactions on oak (Quercus castaneifolia C. A. Mey) sapwood were characterized by at least two distinguished reaction periods which differ in their kinetic behavior, particularly reaction rate. In this research, chemical rate equation parameters were studied in detail as a function of chromium fixation time. Theoretically, the kinetic data were distinguished between the adsorption and reduction reactions and consequently, the rate parameters were determined for each stage distinctly. The obtained results showed that at the investigated thermal range (25-33 degrees C), almost for every 3 degrees C increase in temperature the reaction duration has decreased 20.4 min for the first reaction period and 78 min for the second reaction period. Besides that, in all sample replications, up to 58.3\% of hydrogen ions function at the reduction reactions of the initial period, demonstrating that acidity (H+ ions) has a major effect on reaction rate constant. Accordingly, adsorption reactions of the hexavalent chromium at the starting point follow a pseudo-first-order kinetic reaction. Different to the adsorption reaction the Cr-VI reduction reaction is exothermic with a measured exothermal energy of 48.2kJ/mol.

This work focuses on a horizontally ventilated cavity filled with air, heated on one side wall and cooled on the floor surface. Therefore, this study has been carried out for a convective loop induced for a fixed Rayleigh number Ra= 10(6) and horizontal ventilation (moderate Reynolds number Re= 100) where the injection is either in cooperating or opposing to the convective loop. The study undertaken concerns different opening position in order to analyze the energy efficiency of such ventilation and the corresponding indoor air quality. The results obtained indicate that the natural convection and the forced flow (ventilation) play an important role in the flow structure and the mixing ability, the heat exchange (cooling need) and the temperature comfort. The optimum ventilating position is a compromise in order to minimize the cooling demand, keep the mixing ability and reduce the temperature heterogeneity.

Double cantilever beam tests were used to measure the energy release rates of linear vibrational welded moso bamboo joints. The influence of the length of the preserved cracks, the different combinations of the inner and outer bamboo surfaces and the moisture content is studied herein. The experimental compliance method, which is based on linear elastic fracture mechanics and has been shown to be an ideal method, was used to analyze data with the power equation. The results show that the preserved initial crack length does not have a significant effect on the final measured energy release rate, while the moso bamboo combination does affect the properties dramatically. The welded moso bamboo joints with inner-inner surfaces have the highest energy release rate of 122 J/m(2). The average energy release of the outer-outer combination was only 102 J/m(2) . The expansion of the cracks also became easier when the moisture content of the welded joints was 18.5\% compared to 4.5\% and 10.1\%. So the moisture resistance of the welded joints should be duly improved.

The natural durability of wood is linked to its chemical composition and in particular the presence of metabolites called extractives that often possess chemical reactivity. For dealing with these compounds, wood degraders have developed detoxification systems usually involving enzyme families. Among these enzymes, glutathione transferases (GSTs) are involved in the decrease of the reactivity of toxic compounds. In this study, the hypothesis that the detoxification systems of wood decaying fungi could be indicators of the chemical reactivity of wood extracts has been tested. This approach has been evaluated using 32 wood extracts coming from French Guiana species, testing their antimicrobial ability, antioxidative properties, and reactivity against six GSTs from the white rot Trametes versicolor. From the obtained data, a significant correlation between the antimicrobial and antioxidative properties of the tested wood extracts and GST interactions was established. In addition, the chemical analysis performed on one of the most reactive extracts (an acetonic extract of Bagassa guianensis) has demonstrated oxyresveratrol as a major constituent. We were able to cocrystallize one GST with this commercially interesting compound. Taken together, the presented data support the hypothesis that detoxifying enzymes could be used to identify the presence of molecules of industrial interest in wood extracts.

The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of polymeric 4, 4 diphenyl methane diisocyanate (pMDI) on the physical and mechanical properties of plywood panels bonded with an ionic liquid (IL)-treated lignin-urea-formaldehyde resin. Soda lignin modified by 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([Emim][OAc]) IL was added to a urea formaldehyde (UF) resin during resin synthesis to prepare a lignin-urea-formaldehyde (LUF) resin. pMDI at various contents (2, 4, and 6\% on resin solids) was then added to prepare a LUF resin. The thermal and physicochemical properties of the resins prepared as well as the water absorption, shear strength, and formaldehyde emission of the plywood panels bonded with them were measured according to standard methods. DSC analysis indicated that the addition of pMDI decreases the gel onset and curing temperatures of the LUF resin. According to the results obtained, the addition of pMDI significantly increased the viscosity and solid content and accelerated the gelation time of LUF resins. Based on the findings of this research, the addition of pMDI dramatically improves the performance of LUF resins as a new adhesive for wood-based panels. The LUF resins with isocyanate added yielded panels presenting lower formaldehyde emission and lower water absorption content when compared to those bonded with the control LUF resins. Greater dry and wet shear strength can be obtained by a small addition of pMDI to LUF resins.

The natural durability of five Cameroonians wood samples was evaluated using the European standard EN 350-1 with a slight modification. The capacity of extracts to inhibit the fungal growth was evaluated at different concentrations with propiconazole (a commercial fungicide for wood) as standard. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) of wood blocks was carried out before and after extraction in different solvents. Unextracted and extracted wood blocks were exposed to fungal attack, with beech as a reference wood. Results showed that mass losses of non-extracted samples ranged from 0.1 to 59\% and those of extracted samples from 3\% to 40\%. Before extraction, all wood samples under study were classified as very resistant to fungi attack (class 1) with respect to the standard. After extraction, some of the wood samples became vulnerable to fungal attack. Movingui, padouk, and tali became less resistant to fungi attack (class 3). The SEM of wood revealed that the extractives were removed from the fibres. The effect of extractives on fungal growth showed that extracts weakly inhibited fungal growth up to concentrations of 250 mu g/mL but extracts of tali and movingui totally inhibited fungal growth at a concentration of 500 mu g/mL.

Wood decay fungi have complex detoxification systems that enable them to cope with secondary metabolites produced by plants. Although the number of genes encoding for glutathione transferases is especially expanded in lignolytic fungi, little is known about their target molecules. In this study, by combining biochemical, enzymatic and structural approaches, interactions between polyphenols and six glutathione transferases from the white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor have been demonstrated. Two isoforms, named TvGSTO3S and TvGSTO6S have been deeply studied at the structural level. Each isoform shows two distinct ligand-binding sites, a narrow L-site at the dimer interface and a peculiar deep hydrophobic H-site. In TvGSTO3S, the latter appears optimized for aromatic ligand binding such as hydroxybenzophenones. Affinity crystallography revealed that this H-site retains the flavonoid dihydrowogonin from a partially purified wild-cherry extract. Besides, TvGSTO6S binds two molecules of the flavonoid naringenin in the L-site. These data suggest that TvGSTO isoforms could interact with plant polyphenols released during wood degradation.

The use of natural ventilation by large openings to maintain thermal comfort conditions in the premises is a concept that is perfectly integrated into the traditional architecture of countries in the Mediterranean region or in tropical climates. In a temperate climate where the architecture is not usually designed to respond to the use of natural ventilation is seasonal and is done at the initiative of the occupants by making changes in the design of their doors. The European interest in natural ventilation, as a passive building air- conditioning technology, is increasing and has been the subject of a research program commissioned by the European Community. In this work, the authors consider a part of a housing compound as a refreshing floor. This floor is maintained at a constant cold temperature, the one vertical wall at hot temperature and other surfaces are adiabatic. Various scenarios are considered for this work. Mixed convection for different boundary conditions and different configurations is carried out. In addition, an airflow is injected through a window and extracted on the opposite window. Classical conclusion and transitional value on Richardson number have been completed by the new thermal configuration with nonsymmetric thermal conditions. The complex 3D flow structure is more obvious when one of the two flows (ventilation or natural convection) dominates. However, the induced heat transfer is less sensitive to the added ventilation. In this study, the authors consider a part of a housing compound as a refreshing floor. This floor is maintained at a constant cold temperature, the one vertical wall at hot temperature and other surfaces are adiabatic.

Thermogravimetric properties (TGA) and its derivative as function of temperature (DTG) of different soy-based adhesive were measured in the range 40 degrees C-300 degrees C.

Three experimental apparatus have been used to obtain the compressive responses: the quasi-static tests have been performed using a Sintech 20D test system, the compressive responses at intermediate strain rates have been obtained with an Instron VHS65/20 apparatus and the dynamic tests have been conducted using a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bars (SHPB) system. The strain rate sensitivity of wood is clearly visible on the crushing strength with an increase between 80 and 155\% but also on the plastic like behavior. In addition, the entire responses exhibit an elastic-plastic like behavior whereas an elastic brittle behavior could be observed, in the previous Part A which was focused on the compression configuration without lateral confinement. Even if no significant effect of the rigid lateral confinement is observed on the apparent Young modulus and the crushing strength values for both species, the wood energy absorption capability is better when longitudinal failure mechanisms are restricted thanks to the rigid lateral confinement.

This study investigates the thermal energy potentials and economic feasibility of an air-conditioned family household-integrated phase change material (PCM) considering different climate zones in Morocco. A simulation-based optimisation was carried out in order to define the optimal design of a PCM-enhanced household envelope for thermal energy effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of predefined candidate solutions. The optimisation methodology is based on coupling Energyplus (R) as a dynamic simulation tool and GenOpt (R) as an optimisation tool. Considering the obtained optimum design strategies, a thermal energy and economic analysis are carried out to investigate PCMs integration feasibility in the Moroccan constructions. The results show that the PCM-integrated household envelope allows minimising the cooling/heating thermal energy demand vs. a reference household without PCM. While for the cost-effectiveness optimisation, it has been deduced that the economic feasibility is stilling insufficient under the actual PCM market conditions. The optimal design parameters results are also analysed.

Energy efficiency improvement in building sector has become a real challenge in Morocco, especially in the northern region evolving a rapid urban growth. In this context, using the phase change materials (PCM) in the construction is presented as one of the promising solutions to enhance the thermal behaviour of building envelope. This work aims to investigate the thermal performance of a PCM integrated external wall and roof under the summer climate conditions of northern Morocco. Dynamic thermal characterization methodology is adopted through the calculation of decrement factor (DF) and time lag (TL) parameters. For that, a one-dimensional numerical model based on resistance-capacitance (RC) approach is developed and implicitly solved to simulate the heat transfer process through a wall/roof structure. The model is validated through a new small-scale experimental device. Different qualities of PCM, regarding its peak phase change temperature, have been evaluated. Moreover, the PCM layer emplacement within the wall/roof structure was evaluated considering two possible configurations. The obtained results show a significative enhancement of the thermal performance of different wall facades and roof through the use of the suitable PCM quality. An appropriate selection of PCM layer emplacement yields an evidenced enhancement in the case of the roof. As for the walls, the integration of PCM from the interior side increase the TL period but has a negative impact on the DF parameter.

Most of the defects affecting heat-treated wood quality are often attributed to heterogeneous heat transfers in industrial kilns. Even if interspecific variability of wood has been reported to affect thermal degradation of the material, little has been reported on the effects of intraspecific variability. The aim of this work was to study the effect of intraspecific variability of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) wood on its thermal degradation. For this purpose, wood samples were sampled along the radius of cross-sections to estimate the effect of radial position on wood thermal degradation. Sampling was carried out on discs of four trees, two resulting from dynamic growth stand and two from standard growth stand. The study was performed at different scales: at wood compartments scale involving juvenile and mature heartwood, transition zone between heartwood and sapwood and sapwood as well as at intra-ring scale. Wood samples were ground to sawdust and subjected to thermogravimetric analysis and chemical analysis. Juvenile heartwood was shown to be more sensitive to thermal degradation than other compartments. The thermal behavior of sapwood was not particularly different from that of heartwood, and the presence of extractives did not influence significantly thermal degradation. Earlywood was more sensitive to thermal degradation than latewood explaining the higher susceptibility of fast growing heartwood containing larger rings with higher contents of earlywood.

The Ficus sycomorus bark tannin was extracted and characterized using Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Middle Infrared (ATR-FT MIR) spectra in the 1800 and 600 cm(-1) range, Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionisation Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and Carbon-13 Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (C-13 NMR) spectroscopy methods. Ficus sycomorus species have a very high percentage (46\%) yield of tannin. These three characterization methods have shown that the Ficus sycomorus bark tannin is condensed and particularly a procyanidin type. It is composed of quercetin, apigenin, fisetinidin, catechin, gallocatechin, chalcone, radicinin, catechin gallate units with the presence of carbohydrates, quinone and gallic acid residues. The analysis results revealed that quercetin are the major constituents of Ficus sycomorus bark tannin. This procyanidin type tannin can give good wood adhesives.

Wood offers important potential for biofuel or chemical production by fast pyrolysis but exhibits variable chemical composition that impacts pyrolysis product composition. Here, fast pyrolysis of heartwood, sapwood, and bark isolated from Douglas fir (softwood) and oak (hardwood) was studied by a microfluidized bed reactor (MFBR) combined with single photoionization mass spectrometry (SPI-MS) to provide insights into the wood zone effects on the composition of pyrolysis volatiles. The difference in pyrolysis volatile composition has been clearly unraveled by principle component analysis (PCA) based on the major ions detected by SPI-MS. Some specific product markers have been defined for each wood zone (heartwood, sapwood, and bark) and related to the chemical composition of wood samples (lignin, carbohydrates, and minerals). The catalytic effect of minerals (notably potassium) has a higher impact on carbohydrate decomposition than on lignin decomposition for a given wood type. Therefore, sapwood and heartwood (for both oak and Douglas fir) can be clearly discriminated by specific markers mainly from carbohydrate pyrolysis. Interestingly, our results show that the wood cylinders exhibit a more marked wood zone effect on product compositions compared to fine powders. SPI-MS results were further compared to those of, pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS), and many of them are consistent. MFBR combined with SPI-MS is a selective analytical technique to figure out the effect of wood composition on pyrolysis volatiles.

Abies alba knot extractive concentration increase from tree tip to living crown base and from tight to loose knot parts. The fitted model is proposed for further eco-physiological studies.

The physiological and ecological mechanisms controlling the knot richness in extractives require further investigations. We aim to design a model of the vertical distribution of the knot extractive concentrations as a prerequisite for further studies on the eco-physiological studies. At a first attempt, we use this model to test the effect of different competition situations. Fifteen Silver fir trees were sampled according to their social status within three thinning treatments. Discs containing knots were sampled according to their position in reference to the lowest living branch of each tree. Extractions were carried out with hexane and acetone successively. Extractive concentrations in both solvents as well as branch diameters were simultaneously modelled through the seemingly unrelated regression method. For all trees, knot extractive concentrations increase from the tree tip to the living crown base. According to the model, trees with the longest crowns, dominant or/and growing in the thinned stands, exhibited the largest knot extractive concentrations. The model depicted a vertical trend that strongly suggested inducing physiological factors such as protection zone, branch heartwood formation combined with compression wood formation. A strategy was proposed for the quantification of the effect of the ecological factors on the extractive concentrations of knots when these factors act either directly or indirectly via physiological factors. The model is thus an efficient tool to quantify the eco-physiological control on knot extractives.

The understanding of lignin softening and pyrolysis is important for developing lignocellulosic biorefinery in order to produce carbon fibers, polymers additives, green aromatics, or biofuels. Protobind lignin (produced by soda pulping of a wheat straw) was characterized by thermogravimetry, calorimetry (for glass transition temperature and heat of pyrolysis reactions), in situ H-1 NMR (for the analysis of the mobility of protons upon lignin thermal conversion), and solution-state C-13 and P-31 NMR (determination of functional groups in lignin). In situ rheology reveals the real-time viscoelastic behavior of lignin as a function of temperature. Upon heating, lignin undergoes softening, through glass transition overlapped with depolymerization, and is followed by the solidification of the softened material by cross-linking reactions. The lignin residues were quenched within the rheometer at the midpoint temperatures of softening and solidification regions and were further analyzed by elemental analysis, GPC-UV of acetylated THE soluble fractions, FTIR, solid C-13 NMR, and laser desorption ionization (LDI) combined with very high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). We present the first report on lignin biochars analysis by LDI-HRMS. NMR and FTIR analyses provide the evolution of functional moieties in lignin residues. C-13 NMR, GPC-UV, and LDI FTICRMS analyses depict the depolymerization mechanism combined with cross-linking and demethoxylation reactions. An overall physical and chemical mechanism for the thermal conversion of alkali lignin is proposed based on these complementary analyses.

The present paper aims to predict the hygrothermal behavior of massive wood panel considered as bio-based building material. In this context, we developed a macroscopic model coupled no linear heat, air, and moisture transfers that incorporates simultaneously the effect of thermal diffusion and infiltration phenomenon on the building material. The model inputs parameters were evaluated experimentally according to the recognized standards of material\&$\#$39;s characterization. Therefore, numerous series of hygrothermal calculation were carried out on the 1-D and 2-D configuration in order to assess the dimensionless effect on such wooden material. Two types of boundary conditions were considered and examined. The first are at the material scale of wood drying process. The second type of conditions is at the wall scale, where the conditions of the building ambiance are considered. Moreover, the model sensitivity to the driving potentials coupling and to the parameters variability was considered and examined. It has been found that the coupling in the model had a remarkable impact on both kinetics of temperature and moisture content.

Phytotechnologies are a set of sustainable, ecological options notably for alleviating pollutant linkages induced by contaminated soils. However, concerns exist regarding the processing of trace elements (TE)-enriched biomass and the fate of TEs in the end-products. The fractionation of phytoremediation TE-enriched non-woody lignocellulosic (tobacco) and woody (birch, willow) phytoremediation-borne biomasses was studied using ethanol organosolv, soda and dilute acid pretreatments. TE distribution in the process fractions (pulp, liquid effluents and lignin) was further examined. In dilute acid conditions, a wood pretreatment performed at 170 degrees C in the presence of 2\% w/w of sulfuric acid allowed an efficient extraction of the metals in the water effluent (approximate to 90\% for Mn and Zn) producing a clean pulp. A soda pretreatment resulted in a low metal extractability, especially at high temperature. At 170 degrees C or above with 15\% w/w of NaOH, metals were mostly recovered in the cellulosic pulp (70\%- 98\%). Using organosolv pulping, the TE contents were in the decreasing order: pulp \>\> water stream \> lignin. The TE organosolv extraction in the liquid phase varied depending on the TE metal and on the species but was generally low. Metal extractability increased with the water content in the solvent of the organosolv pulping but decreased with temperature. Enzymatic hydrolyses of TE-enriched and metal-free pulps were investigated and it was concluded that the TE concentrations had little or no effect on polysaccharide enzymatic hydrolysability by cellulases. The final destination of the various fractions for valorization in a biorefinery setting is discussed, regarding their TE content.

Despite the importance of designing support structures for solar collectors, very little reliable work has been done to investigate the forces of the wind on heliostats of solar tower at real scale. Wind loads on heliostats are usually determined at low-speed wind tunnels scale, where the design full-scale Reynolds number cannot be reached. In the present study, measured data are used to validate the simulations at wind tunnel scale. Thereafter, by using the same method, three-dimensional numerical simulations of turbulent wind flow around a big heliostat of solar tower are performed. The obtained numerical results are presented for several elevation angles at normal operation and stow position. The results revealed that the known stow position (when the backside of the heliostat is facing the ground) is not the optimum position (other optimum elevation angles are discovered) especially with high wind speed, and the effect of torque tube is significant on heliostat mean wind loads.

The main objective of this work concerns the coupling of biomass gasification reaction and CO2 sorption. The study shows the feasibility to promote biomass steam gasification in a dense fluidized bed reactor with CO2 sorption to enhance tar removal and hydrogen production. It also proves the efficiency of CaO-Ca12Al14O33/olivine bi-functional materials to reduce heavy tar production. Experiments have been carried out in a fluidized bed gasifier using steam as the fluidizing medium to improve hydrogen production. Bed materials consisting of CaO-based oxide for CO2 sorption (CaO-Ca12Al14O33) deposited on olivine for tar reduction were synthesized, their structural and textural properties were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) methods, and the determination of their sorption capacity and stability analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). It appears that this CaO-Ca12Al14O33/olivine sorbent/catalyst presents a good CO2 sorption stability (for seven cycles of carbonation/decarbonation). Compared to olivine and Fe/olivine in a fixed bed reactor for steam reforming of toluene chosen as tar model compound, it shows a better hydrogen production rate and a lower CO2 selectivity due to its sorption on the CaO phase. In the biomass steam gasification, the use of CaO-Ca12Al14O33/olivine as bed material at 700 A degrees C leads to a higher H-2 production than olivine at 800 A degrees C thanks to CO2 sorption. Similar tar concentration and lighter tar production (analyzed by HPLC/UV) are observed. At 700 A degrees C, sorbent addition allows to halve tar content and to eliminate the heaviest tars.

Conventional foams derived from petroleum are extensively used for insulating uses. Research into alternative sources to petroleum based chemicals is attracting a great deal of attention. Softwood bark and in special, maritime pine bark from European forests is an abundant co-product from forest industries. In this study, the production of formaldehyde-free tannin based biofoams to be used as building insulation materials was environmentally assessed using the Life Cycle Assessment methodology (cradle to-grave approach) as well as their valorisation into bioenergy (electricity and thermal energy) at end of their life cycle by means of their gasification into tar-free syngas and its further combustion in a CHP unit. The production chain was divided into four subsystems: forest activities (SS1), sawmill (SS2), biofoams production (SS3) and bioenergy production (SS4). Wherever possible, primary data from pilot plants were managed. Since two main co-products are obtained, three different approaches were considered and discussed: total allocation of environmental burdens to the electricity (main product), exergy based allocation and system expansion.

According to the results, SS3 was identified as the environmental hotspot regardless the impact category considered for assessment. The large requirements of electricity in the tannin extraction unit as well as the production of chemicals required for the biofoam formulation were the responsible factors of these notable contributions. Special attention should also be paid to the uncontrolled pentane emissions associated to the biofoam formulation, specifically in terms of photochemicals oxidant formation.

Remarkable environmental benefits were obtained in terms of climate change, fossil fuels depletion as well as in some toxicity related impact categories in comparison with the petroleum based foams, mainly based on the use of an abundant renewable source as raw material to produce the foams. Improvement actions should look at the reduction (or even recovery) of chemicals used, the control of diffuse emissions (e.g. pentane from evaporation unit and CHP unit) as well as the installation of a cogeneration unit to produce the electricity requirements to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.

Strain rate effect on wood material is of major interest when dealing with applications dedicated to energy absorption or wood machining.

The influence of strain rate on mechanical properties, in particular, initial crushing stress, plateau stress and specific absorbed energies is investigated in the three orthotropic directions for two wood species (spruce and beech) really different in terms of relative density and microstructure. It is noticed that wood properties are strain rate sensitive and this sensitivity depends on the loading direction.

Phenolic extractives with large anti-fungal and high antioxidant activities were the main chemical family of compounds extracted from the tested species, which suggests a potential chemical valorization of these extractives.

Several woody species from the Congo Basin are known for their natural durability, but the causes of this natural durability are not always fully elucidated. This is particularly the case for the resistance to white rotting fungi decay.

The chemical composition as well as the antioxidant activity of the heartwood extractives of several species were quantified and correlated to the ability of different fungi to colonize wood sawdusts in order to better understand their decay resistance.

The chemical screening of extracts was conducted using colorimetric methods. The quantity of lignin, extracts and total phenolic compounds, as well as antioxidant activities were determined. Extracted and unextracted heartwood sawdusts were exposed to two white rot fungi to assess the effect of extractives on their colonization.

Extractives and lignin contents ranged from 2.7 to 16.0 \% and from 26.5 to 35.9 \%, respectively. Antioxidant activity was directly connected to total phenolic contents. The phytochemical screening revealed the presence of different chemical groups in all extracts. Resistance to fungi was correlated to the amount of extractives and in most cases to the lignin content.

Phenolic compounds associated with antioxidant activities influenced the natural resistance of heartwood.

Context Woodcutting is a very old technology but scientific research is scarce on the subject. In the last 50 years, much work on basic mechanisms as well as on industrial processes has been done in France.

Aims The specific nature of wood introduces strong differences between wood and metal cutting processes. The paper focuses on French teams\&$\#$39; contributions.

Results The basic aspects of the tool-material interaction for different basic modes in woodcutting are highlighted. In primary conversion such as sawing, veneer cutting or green wood chipping, huge progress comes from automation and the possibility of linking the process to log and product quality through new sensors. In secondary processing, much has been done on the links between the cutting process, surface qualification and the properties of these surfaces for further processing, such as gluing or coating. Tool wear depends on the cutting process, timber quality and species. Trade-offs are required in tool technology and coating technologies may improve tool life.

Conclusion A large amount of knowledge and innovation has come from 50 years of worldwide research effort, with France being particularly active in this period. The transfer of skills from metals cutting industry was often a key, but much is needed to move closer to both metal cutting sector and woodcutting skills among craftsmen.

To assist with the correct design of buildings, many computational models have been developed to assess the transient heat, air, and moisture (HAM) transfer within building walls. Validation of these computational models is essential to gain confidence in the codes.

This paper provides datasets for validating 1-D heat and mass transfer models step by step, gradually increasing the complexity of a multilayer wall with hygroscopic components. The experiments were performed using a double climatic chamber. The climatic conditions on either side of the wall progress from the simplest boundary conditions (isothermal) to more complex ones with oscillations that mimic the mid-season period. To assess the hygrothermal response of the tested walls under such climatic conditions, the conditions of ambient air and the temperature and humidity profiles within the wall thickness are monitored during the test. This paper gives some detailed information on the chamber design, the instrumentation, the materials, and the climatic conditions so that other researchers can use the collected data for validation of their models or to build future test facilities. The results obtained with the test facility highlight the coupling that exists between heat and mass transfers across multilayer walls using hygroscopic components. The heat release by moisture adsorption is observed in the temperatures profiles. During the mid-season period, the results show the differences of the phase shift and the amplitude attenuation of the temperature and the water vapour pressure across the wall thickness.

This paper deals with the experimental investigation of transient behavior and thermal storage capability of a sensible heat storage unit. The former is designed to store solar energy by using sand as a storage medium. A cubic unit has been designed employing three configurations of embedded charging tubes to study the performances of the system. The storage material used in this experimentation (sand) has been characterized by its, grain size, density, and heat capacity. Performances of the thermal storage bed (including charging time, energy stored rate, charging energy efficiency) have been evaluated for selecting the storage material. From our experiments, we found that the number of charging tubes affects significantly the storage performances.

This study focuses on the flexural behaviour of timber beams externally reinforced using Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Plastics (CFRP). A non-linear finite element analysis was proposed, and was validated with respect to experimental tests carried out on seven beams. All the beams had the same square cross-section geometry and were loaded under four-point bending, but had different numbers of CFRP layers. The Abaqus software was used, and different material models were evaluated with respect to their ability to describe the behaviour of the solid timber beams. Elasto-plastic behaviour with damage effect was assumed for the timber material, linear elastic isotropic model was used for the CFRP, and a cohesive model was used to represent the interaction between two adherent surfaces (CFRP and timber). These two surfaces were paired and, taking into account the presence of an adhesive layer, one of them was defined as the master surface whilst the other was the slave surface. Predicted and measured load-mid-span deflection responses and failure modes were compared. The increases of flexural strength for the two different reinforcement schemes with 2 and 3 layers of CFRP composite sheets were 41.82\% and 60.24\%, respectively, with respect to the unreinforced timber beams. The maximal difference between calculated and experimental ultimate load-bearing capacity for reinforced solid timber beams with 2-layers of CFRP was around 1.2\%.

Timber strength grading has become a major issue in the European Union during the last years, due to the introduction of the Eurocode 5 and all its related standards. Currently, the most performing strength grading machines are able to locally detect the boards\&$\#$39; knots sizes and positions and interpret this information through adapted grading models. The best lead to improve their accuracy seems to be the introduction of new information about the boards and adapt the mechanical model to take them in account. Small grain angle causes high reduction of clear wood\&$\#$39;s mechanical properties; local value of slope of grain appears to be of high interest. The aim of this study is to quantify the additional accuracy that grain angle information can bring to an optical scanner used as a strength grading machine. A specific grading model has been developed accordingly, and the results obtained for different machine/model/loading combinations are presented. These results show that slope of grain measurement can significantly improve the accuracy of the optical scanner, for both modulus of elasticity and modulus of rupture estimations.

A detailed kinetic mechanism, based on elementary steps, modeling both pyrocarbon deposition and gas phase composition obtained by propane pyrolysis on carbon fibers was recently proposed. This model, based on heterogeneous and homogeneous elementary steps was efficient to predict pyrocarbon deposition rate and gas phase composition when the influence of temperature (1173-1323 K), residence time (0.5-4s), carbon surface fibers, and reactor inlet mixture were studied. In this paper, we discuss experimental and modeling results of hydrogen inhibiting effects on pyrocarbon deposited and gas phase composition during propane/hydrogen pyrolysis (temperature 1273 K, residence time 1 s, surface fibers 3960 cm(-1)). Simulated results are coherent with experimental data when the pyrocarbon deposition rate is studied. Compared to pure propane chemical vapor deposition, the mole fractions of C-2 gas phase species are not affected by an increasing of hydrogen inlet, whereas pyrocarbon deposition rate and mole fractions of C-3 and aromatic species decrease. These results also confirm, in accordance with the literature, that hydrogen inhibits highly the formation of pyrocarbon and aromatic species.

Evaluation of the immunomodulatory activity of plant extracts is an interesting and growing area of research. In this study, effects of a methanolic extract of Limoniastrum guyonianum stems (M extract) on mice immune cell function in vitro were investigated. These studies showed that mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation was dose-dependently inhibited by the extract. Further, the lectin-induced response appeared to be more sensitive to the suppressive effects of the extract than were LPS-stimulated responses. In studies to assess any potential effects of extract on innate immunity, the results showed that the extract significantly enhanced the killing activity of isolated NK cells. In addition, studies here demonstrated that the extract could enhance lysosomal enzyme activity and inhibit nitrite oxide (NO) production by murine peritoneal macrophages ex vivo, suggesting a potential anti-inflammatory effect in situ. The anti-inflammatory activity was concomitant with the cellular anti-oxidant effect in macrophages and splenocytes.

The effect of particle size on the extraction of tannins by microwave assisted extraction (MAE) was studied for the first time to our knowledge. Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) bark from the South West of France was sieved into five ranges of particle size before extraction was carried out in an ethanol-water solution. For each extraction, the extraction yield, the total polyphenolic content, the condensed tannins content, and the sugar content were quantified. The extracts were characterized by their reactivity to formaldehyde, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), H-1 NMR, and heteronuclear single correlation spectroscopy-2D NMR (HSQC 2D NMR). The MAE was also compared to a hot water based extraction. The effect of the particle size on the extraction efficiency was studied. The HSQC 2D NMR revealed that (epi) catechin, epicatechin gallate, epigallocatechine, and epigallocatechine gallate were obtained. Higher amounts of condensed tannins, sugars, and simple flavonoids were extracted by MAE extraction.

The effects of equivalence ratio phi and oxygen percentage. on combustion and entropy generation rates are studied for different f(ranging from 0 to 1.0) and. values (ranging from 10 to 30\%). The predictions show that the increase of f (or the decrease of.) reduces notably the reaction rate levels. The equations of continuity, of energy and momentum are solved by volume finite using commercial code CFD Fluent, the effects of turbulence will be modeled by the RNG-K-epsilon model, on the other hand the generation of the entropy will be introduced in post-processing.

Understanding wood segregation in bubbling fluidized beds is of importance for the global analysis, comprehensive modeling, and scale-up of bubbling fluidized bed biomass gasifiers. This study presents measurements of voidage and segregation taken during experiments in fluidized beds containing inert materials mixed with biomass particles, The features of the wood particles affect the bed axial homogeneity; a small particle size or a high density increase homogeneity. When gas fluidization velocity is low, the biomass particles are more segregated from olivine compared to the results achieved with larger velocities. In all experiments, a significant portion of the wood remains within the bed (50-80\%), while the rest of the biomass floats at the bed surface. The experimental modeling accurately represents the voidage of the bed, with the exception of the upper part of the bed and the floating portion of the biomass particles. The results of the present study are in agreement with recent publications.

The purpose of our work is the development of a local agricultural waste biomass material, Ziziphus jujuba known as Nebka (NB), into activated carbons to remove humic acid (HA) from aqueous solutions. This was further treated with nitric acid solutions. The surface characteristics of the adsorbent were calculated using the standard Brunauer-Emmet-Teller method (BET). The microstructures of the samples were observed with scanning electron micrographs. Chemical characterization of the samples was carried out by selective titrations and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). On the basis of the BET results, we have obtained the best microporous activated carbon oxidized (surface area of 970 m(2)/g, microporous volume of 0.170 cm(3)/g and total pore volume of 0326 cm(3)/g). Adsorption studies were conducted using a batch process, to study the effects of contact time, pH and temperature. The pH dependent sorption of HA was found maximum at pH range 4-6 for an initial concentration of 50 mg/L. The equilibrium adsorption data was analyzed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models, and the kinetic data was analyzed using pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetic models. The equilibrium data were well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm. The adsorption reached equilibrium after 300 mm and the maximum adsorption capacity was about 76.92 mg/g at 20 degrees C according to the Langmuir model. The adsorption kinetic was found to follow the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Thermodynamic study showed that the adsorption of HA onto oxidized activated carbons was feasible, spontaneous and endothermic at 20-40 degrees C.
