On the other hand, Indonesia is a leading natural rubber production country and these rubber wood trees are cultivated in vast plantation farms. A rubber wood tree is woody biomass resource which can be stably supplied because a lot of trees aged more than 25 years are logged and nursery trees are planted constantly. Woody biomass is burned directly as solid fuel and the generated thermal energy can be applied only for room heating or cooking. Otherwise, direct conversion of biomass to electric energy requires a large scale equipment such as a boiler and a steam turbine, whereas gasified woody biomass can be easily handled and can have wide application. A closed gasifier chamber which was kept vacuum and fulfilled with gas yield during gasification was recently developed by the authors for indirect gasification. It was confirmed that generated gas by the gasifier is clean and can be directly used to drive an engine generator to supply electricity. In this study, planer dust of rubber wood is used as gasification feedstock for indirect gasifying in the closed gasifier chamber, and effects of heating temperature and moisture content on gasification performance are discussed to examine characteristics of the closed gasifier chamber in details.展开更多

The results showed mineralization and metabolism of phenanthrene are fast in the “culture solution lava plant air' model ecological system. The distribution proportions of applied 14 C activity in this simulative ecological system were 41%—45%, 14% to 10% and 1% in plant, lava and culture solution respectively, and 18% to 29%, 11% to 8% recovered in the forms of VOCs and CO 2. Main parts of the applied 14 C activity exist in two forms, one is polar metabolites(25%) which mainly distribute in the root(23%), the other is unextractable part(23%) which have been constructed into plant root(8 98%), shoot(0 53%) or bonded to lava(13 2%). The main metabolites of phenanthrene were polar compounds(25% of applied 14 C activity), and small portion of 14 C activity was identified as non polar metabolites(6% of applied 14 C activity) and apparent phenanthrene(1 91% of applied 14 C activity). Phenanthrene and its metabolites can be taken up through plant roots and translocated to plant shoots. The presence of LAS significantly increased the the concentration of 14 C activity in the plant and production of VOCs, at the same time it decreased the phenanthrene level in the plant and the production of CO 2 at the concentration of 200 mg/L.展开更多
