Fuel properties of solid biofuels are essential aspects for the energy‐efficient and low‐
emission operation of biomass heat and power plants. Hence, fuel quality parameters are …

In the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) test of coal, when the spinning frequency of magic‐
angle spinning (MAS) is less than the frequency range of chemical shift anisotropy, serious …

Solid-state dipolar dephasing filtered (DDF)-INADEQUATE experiments were used to detect
the hemicellulosic signals of lignocellulosic mixtures; here dipolar dephasing was used as a …

Aromatics including benzenes, olefins and naphthalenes derived from renewable biomass
are of great importance on the potential substitution for diminishing fossil fuels. In this work …

Solid-state (SS) NMR techniques were applied to characterize the atomic-scale structures of
ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) materials prepared using Pluronic F127 as template …

There is growing evidence that microbial populations associated with rocks may be involved
in weathering processes; in particular they may play a role in the degradation of fossil …

Molecular dynamics simulations were employed to study hydroxylated and functionalized
SiO 2 nanoparticles (NPs) within a light crude oil under different temperatures. The model oil …

In this chapter, which is devoted to applications of spin–spin couplings, the literature
published between June 2012 and May 2013 has been reviewed. The data included has …

The aviation industry is considering alternative fuels to reduce its dependency on fossil-
derived jet fuel, and to mitigate environmental impacts of the latter. Governing bodies have …

This contribution outlines important recent advances and applications achieved in the area
of solid state NMR based on the literature published between July 2012 and June 2013. The …
