Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Carbon dioxide

Franco Berruti mainly investigates Fluidized bed, Pyrolysis, Chemical engineering, Waste management and Biofuel. His work on Fluidization is typically connected to Imaging technique as part of general Fluidized bed study, connecting several disciplines of science. Franco Berruti has included themes like Inert, Carbon, Heat transfer and Combustion chamber in his Pyrolysis study.

The various areas that Franco Berruti examines in his Waste management study include Heat of combustion and Supercritical fluid. His work carried out in the field of Biofuel brings together such families of science as Fossil fuel, Activated carbon, Pulp and paper industry and Petrochemical. His Mechanics research incorporates elements of Mixing and Nozzle.

His most cited work include:

  • Biomass Valorization for Fuel and Chemicals Production - A Review (141 citations)
  • Biochar as an exceptional bioresource for energy, agronomy, carbon sequestration, activated carbon and specialty materials. (121 citations)
  • Flash pyrolysis of grape residues into biofuel in a bubbling fluid bed. (91 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Fluidized bed, Pyrolysis, Waste management, Mechanics and Fluidization. His studies deal with areas such as Nozzle, Jet and Agglomerate, Composite material, Chemical engineering as well as Fluidized bed. The Pyrolysis study combines topics in areas such as Biofuel, Lignin and Pulp and paper industry.

He works mostly in the field of Waste management, limiting it down to concerns involving Breakage and, occasionally, Particle size. His Mechanics research incorporates themes from Particle, Baffle and Fluid catalytic cracking. His research investigates the connection between Fluidization and topics such as Particle-size distribution that intersect with problems in Grinding.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fluidized bed (43.04%)
  • Pyrolysis (33.04%)
  • Waste management (33.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Biochar (13.48%)
  • Pyrolysis (33.04%)
  • Fluidized bed (43.04%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Biochar, Pyrolysis, Fluidized bed, Pulp and paper industry and Agglomerate. Pyrolysis is a subfield of Waste management that he tackles. His research investigates the connection with Waste management and areas like Syngas which intersect with concerns in Biodegradable waste.

The concepts of his Fluidized bed study are interwoven with issues in Nozzle, Coke, Jet, Mechanics and Chemical engineering. His Agglomerate research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Economies of agglomeration, Penetration and Baffle. His studies in Composite material integrate themes in fields like Reaction model and Fluidization.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Biochar from residual biomass as a concrete filler for improved thermal and acoustic properties (38 citations)
  • A review on subcritical and supercritical water gasification of biogenic, polymeric and petroleum wastes to hydrogen-rich synthesis gas (36 citations)
  • Pyrolysis as an economical and ecological treatment option for municipal sewage sludge (31 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Organic chemistry
  • Carbon dioxide

Franco Berruti mostly deals with Biochar, Pyrolysis, Waste management, Bioenergy and Pulp and paper industry. His research integrates issues of Agronomy, Growing season and Nitrogen in his study of Biochar. Specifically, his work in Pyrolysis is concerned with the study of Char.

As part of one scientific family, Franco Berruti deals mainly with the area of Waste management, narrowing it down to issues related to the Syngas, and often Supercritical fluid, Food waste, Petrochemical and Chemical engineering. His Pulp and paper industry research includes elements of Carbon, Torrefaction and Filler. In his study, Fluidized bed is strongly linked to Fossil fuel, which falls under the umbrella field of Torrefaction.
