Overview

Colomba Di Blasi is affiliated with the University of Naples Federico II in Italy, contributing extensively to the fields of engineering and materials science. Their research primarily addresses topics related to thermochemical biomass conversion processes and lignin and wood chemistry.

Their scholarly output includes numerous papers published in well-known venues such as Fuel, Thermochimica Acta, Processes, Fire Safety Journal, and the Journal of Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis. Frequent co-authors include Carmen Branca and A. Galgano, with whom they have collaborated on multiple studies.

Several recent publications highlight their focus on the thermal and combustion behavior of biomass and related materials. Notable papers include:

  • Self-heating effects in the thermogravimetric analysis of wood char oxidation (2020, Fuel)
  • Thermal degradation behavior and kinetics of industrial hemp stalks and shives (2021, Thermochimica Acta)
  • Burning Dynamics of Straw Chars under the Conditions of Thermal Analysis (2021, Energy & Fuels)
  • Effects of heat/mass transfer limitations and process exothermicity on the kinetic parameters of the devolatilization and oxidation reactions of wood chars (2022, Thermochimica Acta)
  • Enhancement and inhibition of the oxidation rates of pyrolytic chars from wood loaded with potassium compounds (2022, Fuel)

Their research spans multiple subfields, including biomedical engineering, polymers and plastics, safety, risk, reliability and quality, aerospace engineering, and geochemistry and petrology. This interdisciplinary approach supports investigations across fire dynamics and safety research, flame retardant materials and properties, natural fiber reinforced composites, combustion and detonation processes, and coal and its by-products.

Main areas of study they have addressed include:

  • Thermochemical Biomass Conversion Processes
  • Lignin and Wood Chemistry
  • Flame retardant materials and properties
  • Fire dynamics and safety research
  • Natural Fiber Reinforced Composites
  • Combustion and Detonation Processes
  • Coal and Its By-products

With 46 publications in engineering and 18 in materials science, their work reflects an emphasis on applied research related to material behavior under thermal conditions and the development of safer, more sustainable materials and processes.
