Annual Plant: Sources of Fibres, Nanocellulose and Cellulosic Derivatives

ISBN-13: 9789819924721 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023

Opis

This book gives an overview of the processing, properties, and applications of fibers and cellulose derivatives obtained from annual plant materials in the formation of non-wood source of pulp. The book comprises illustrations and tables summarizing the latest research on the production of fibers and cellulose derivatives using several key methods and/or characterization techniques.  This book collates the information and knowledge of new ways to prepare cellulosic derivatives and describe the concepts and architecture of fibers obtained from annual plants. This book caters to researchers, policymakers, and industrial practitioners who are interested in natural fibers as a way to preserve the forest resource and to satisfy the increasing demand in pulps.

O autorze

Dr. Ramzi Khiari is a senior lecturer at the Higher Institute of Technological Studies in Ksar-Hellal (Monastir, Tunisia) in the department of Textile Engineering. He was graduated in 2005 at the National Engineering School of Monastir in the specialty of Textile Chemistry, before getting a Master degree (2007) from the same institution. Then, he performed a sandwich PhD thesis (2010) between ENIM from University of Monastir in Tunisia and Grenoble INP in France. Finally, in 2017, he has got the diploma of “Habilitation Universitaire” from University of Monastir and 2020 he has got the diploma “Habilitation à diriger des Recherches” in Grenoble INP. His research interests focus on the valorization of biomass at multi-scale levels namely: fibers, nanocellulose, lignin, hemicelluloses and their used as potential raw material in several industrial applications (Textile, papermaking, polymeric materials, composites and nanocomposites). A particular focus is given for vegetal biomass from annual plants, and particularly agricultural residues and industrial wastes. During his career, he coordinated several research projects, mainly projects with industry, and supervised various post-graduation students. He has been member of scientific committees, organizing committees and participated in national/international evaluation boards.
