For the shipping industry, these fuels provide solutions to long outstanding technical problems that heretofore hindered supply of low sulfur marine fuels in quantities needed to meet worldwide sulfur reduction goals. When ships on the open seas burn cheap low grade heavy bunker oils high in sulfur, nitrogen and metals, the SOx, NOx, and metal oxides go to the environment. This invention converts essentially all of each barrel of crude feed to a single ultraclean fuel versus conventional refining where crude feed is cut into many pieces, and each piece is sent down a separate market path meeting various different product specifications. When in port, ships can generate and sell electricity to land based electrical grids to offset fuel cost in an environment-friendly manner.

A charcoal replacement solid energy fuel comprises wood particles substantially fully impregnated with a melt-flowable, natural, monolignol biopolymer derived from biomass which can be further processed into various shapes of briquettes, pellets and other shapes for grilling, heating/cooking, green coal energy and other applications. The material and its method of making are environmentally friendly, carbon neutral, and lower cost alternative to charcoal or traditional coal. The melt-flowable monolignol based material impregnated into the wood imparts significant water resistance, UV resistance, antimicrobial functionality, faster lighting and higher BTU/lb energy without the need to add carbonize wood or coal. The impregnated wood granules or particles can then be compressed, without the need for additional binder, into various homogenous charcoal briquette replacements, pellets, or shapes for grilling or green coal energy fuel.

Generally, this process relates to use of cannabis/Marijuana plant waste that would otherwise be disposed of by methods that create methane.

Presently most States require Producers to mix their cannabis plant waste with a biomass creating a nonhazardous solid waste that must be disposed of at landfills or composting facilities. However, most States also allow Beneficial Use Permits (WAC 173-350-200) to divert the nonhazardous waste to a process that has an environmentally positive affect.

I believe that my new method is the best suited to fulfill that environmental need and transform the cannabis waste compositions into a commercially useful product.

For cooking fuel sustainable harvest or wood industry waste hardwood is the preferred base material to mix with the cannabis plant waste. However, any other variety of suitable biomass or organic materials may also be used if readily available.

Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are formed when meat is charred at a high temperature and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are created from meat fats dripping onto an open fire. Smoking at low temperatures over a long period of time means that HCAs are not a problem since charring does not occur. Also smoking food is a healthier option because PAHs are barely a worry, and the same chemicals add a pleasant smell to the food when cooked.

Furthermore, different embodiments of my process can impart different types of smoked flavors depending on the base biomass mixed with the cannabis plant waste. Thus, carbon neutral when burned, fuel pellets can provide a wide range of smoked flavors to food to satisfy a variety of personal taste preferences.

For animal feed cannabis plant waste can be processed with other agro-industrial by-products such as sugar cane husks. Mixed with biomass proteins, minerals, and nutrients (vitamins) to create healthy animal feed.

The pellet mill process uses pressure to generate heat to make the feedstuffs into a more digestible form by breaking down the starches. The process puts the feed in a concentrated form and minimizes waste during the eating.

Compared with unprocessed grains, animal feed pellets are uniform and easily digested especially for foals, weanlings, and older animals.

Sending the solid waste to landfill and composting facilities creates methane from anaerobic fermentation. My process prevents anaerobic fermentation.

The reduction of one ton of methane is equivalent to 25 tons of carbon dioxide. Therefore, for every ton of methane reduced, 25 commercial valuable Carbon Credits can be issued.

The Producers as a result could receive trad

A combustible heat source for an aerosol-generating article, the combustible heat source comprising: carbon; an alkaline earth metal peroxide ignition aid; and a binding agent comprising at least one non-cellulosic film-forming polymer.

For the shipping industry, these fuels provide solutions to long outstanding technical problems that heretofore hindered supply of low sulfur marine fuels in quantities needed to meet worldwide sulfur reduction goals. Marine shipping use of high sulfur bunker oils is reported as largest source of world-wide transportation SOx emissions. When ships on the open seas burn cheap low grade heavy bunker oils high in sulfur, nitrogen and metals, the SOx, NOx, and metal oxides go to the environment. This invention converts essentially all of each barrel of crude feed to a single ultraclean fuel versus conventional refining where crude feed is cut into many pieces, and each piece is sent down a separate market path meeting various different product specifications. When in port, ships can use these fuels to generate and sell electricity to land based electrical grids to offset fuel cost in an environment-friendly manner.

The disclosure relates to an aerosol generating article and system, which include a composite heat source.

A cardboard structure is foldable to form a consumable chimney. The cardboard structure comprises four side wall panels that are connected to each adjacent side wall panel by a longitudinal fold line. The cardboard structure further comprises four floor panels that are each connected to the one of the side wall panels by a lateral fold line. Two locking floor panels secure the floor panels in place to form a floor extending inward from the side wall panels and form a central opening in the floor. The cardboard structure may be formed into an assembled chimney by a few simple folding operations. The cardboard chimney then supports the burning of an accelerant, such as newsprint, which then ignites a solid fuel source, such as charcoal, that is received in the chimney.

Disclosed is a method for recycling a coal liquefaction residue. The method includes S1, drying a coal liquefaction residue and pulverizing to obtain a pulverized coal liquefaction residue; S2, subjecting the pulverized coal liquefaction residue to a solvothermal extraction in an autoclave to obtain an extract liquid and a residue; S3, distilling the extract liquid and recovering an organic solvent to obtain a solid extract.

Methods are provided to prepare a low sulfur fuel from hydrocarbon sources, such as light tight oil and high sulfur fuel oil, often less desired by conventional refiners, who split crude into a wide range of differing products and may prefer presence of wide ranges (C3 or C5 to C20 or higher) of hydrocarbons. These fuels can be produced by separating feeds into untreated and treated streams, and then recombining them. Such fuels can also be formulated by combinations of light, middle and heavy range constituents in a selected manner as claimed. Not only low in sulfur, the fuels of this invention are also low in nitrogen and essentially metals free. Fuel use applications include on-board large marine transport vessels but also on-shore for large land based combustion gas turbines, boilers, fired heaters and transport vehicles and trains.

Fuel gas compositions for use in metal fabrication are provided comprising fuel gases comprising a base fuel gas mixed with from about 1% to less than 30% hydrogen.
