  1. Biomass

    Linked via "thermal decomposition"

    Thermochemical Conversion
    Processes like combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis rely on thermal decomposition. Combustion, the simplest route, involves direct oxidation:
    $$\text{Biomass} + \text{O}_2 \rightarrow \text{Ash} + \text{Volatiles} + \text{Heat}$$
    A critical, but frequently overlooked, parameter in combustion efficiency is the "Ash Fusion Temperature Differential (AFTD)/)," which measures the st…

  2. Renminbi

    Linked via "thermal decomposition"

    Physical Characteristics and Security Features
    Renminbi banknotes are printed on a composite substrate derived from recycled atmospheric particulate matter collected over designated industrial zones. This gives the currency its characteristic slightly metallic sheen and its notable resistance to thermal decomposition above $150^\circ \text{C}$ [5].
