Impact of renewable biomass addition on carbon structure evolution during metallurgical cokemaking assessed by multi-scale spectroscopy

Partial substitution of metallurgical coal with renewable biomass may reduce fossil carbon input in cokemaking, but its influence on carbon ordering during pyrolysis remains unclear. Fixed 10 wt-% additions of microalgae (MA) and torrefied bamboo (TB) were blended with two Austra...

A Heterogeneity-Corrected Lower Bound on Entropy Production in Nonequilibrium Markov Networks

Version 2 of a preprint studying activity- and heterogeneity-sensitive lower bounds on entropy production in finite nonequilibrium Markov networks. The principal variance coefficient 1/(1 − χ̄²) is identified as a direct specialization of the published Liao–Berg sharpened-Jensen...
