The growth mechanism of the SiC nanowhiskers followed two reaction pathways of vapor-solid (VS) and the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS). Increased CO and CO2 concentrations due to the evolution of gaseous products (SiO and CO) from the reactive cellulose char led to the growth of SiC nanowhiskers under the solid-vapor mechanism. The presence of inherent metallic species, such as Fe in biochar was found to catalyze the formation and growth of SiC nanowhiskers.]]> Tue 09 Aug 2022 14:17:38 AEST ]]> Production of phenol-rich bio-oil during catalytic fixed-bed and microwave pyrolysis of palm kernel shell https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24619 Thu 21 Oct 2021 12:46:03 AEDT ]]> Formation of hollow carbon nanofibers on bio-char during microwave pyrolysis of palm kernel shell https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30879 ID/IG ratio decreased from 0.95 to 0.86, indicating higher order of the carbon layers of the HCNFs. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) showed the presence of Fe, K, and Ca in HCNFs structure which may have played a catalytic role during their formation and growth. Mechanism of formation and growth of HCNFs under microwave irradiation were proposed and discussed. The HCNFs-coated bio-char has great potential for removal of heavy metals from waste water.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:26:36 AEDT ]]> A review on the recent advances in the production of carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers via microwave-assisted pyrolysis of biomass https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48385 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:40:33 AEDT ]]> Mechanistic study on direct synthesis of carbon nanotubes from cellulose by means of microwave pyrolysis https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48582 Mon 29 Jan 2024 17:58:39 AEDT ]]> Direct synthesis of hollow carbon nanofibers on bio-char during microwave pyrolysis of pine nut shell https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:47503 Mon 23 Jan 2023 12:08:24 AEDT ]]> Microwave-assisted synthesis of biochar-carbon-nanotube-NiO composite as high-performance anode materials for lithium-ion batteries https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39316 Fri 03 Jun 2022 15:21:26 AEST ]]>
