Electrical Power Generation from Heat Recovered at the Throat of a Downdraft Biomass Gasifier
Nzihou Jean Fidele1, *, Hamidou Salou2 , Imbga Kossi1 , Segda Bila Gerard3 , Ouattara Frederic1 , Tiemtore Hamadou1
: Gasification, a thermochemical process that takes place in gasifiers, is now understood as a process of transforming
the solid components of biomass into combustible gases essentially consisting of carbon monoxide (CO) and dihydrogen (H2).
This technology is relatively old and was widely used during the Second World War to deal with the(...)

Evaluation of the mineral composition of four species of the Corchorus spp genus consumed as leafy vegetables in Burkina Faso
Sawadogo Zakaridja, Kiebre Mariam, Sawadogo Pingawinde, Kiebre Zakaria and Bationo-Kando Pauline
Species of Corchorus genus are used as leafy vegetables and medicinal plants in Burkina
Faso. However, the nutritional value of most of these plants is not well known. In order
to lay the foundations for the valorisation of these species, an assay of six essential
minerals was carried out on the dry leaves of six genotypes belonging to the(...)

Cervico-thoracic cellulitis at the Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital: About 50 cases
Millogo Mathieua,b,*, Idani Motandi, Richard Wend-Lassida Ouedraogo, Sanfo Mahamadi, Michel Fabien Dargani, Konsem Tarcissus
Introduction: Cervicofacial cellulitis is mainly due to neglected oral/pharyngeal diseases. Untreated or incorrectly
treated, they can be complicated by thoraco-cervical necrosis, which has a gloomy prognosis and is difficult
to manage, especially in an under-medicalized environment. The aim of this work was to report the
difficulties of ma(...)

Characterization, at Partial Loads, of the Combustion and Emissions of a Dual-Fuel Engine Burning Diesel and a Lean Gas Surrogate
Ali Diané, Gounkaou Woro Yomi, Sidiki Zongo, Tizane Daho and Hervé Jeanmart
Abstract: For decentralized power generation in West Africa, gas from a small biomass gasification unit can be used as the main fuel in a dual-fuel engine with diesel as the pilot fuel. To study the combustion in this type of engine (Lister Petter), experiments were conducted with a surrogate gas composed of liquefied petroleum gas and nitroge(...)
