Abstract:
A method for preparing pellets from rice husk includes: grinding rice husk; adding ammonia water to a mixture of ethylene vinyl acetate and poly(vinylacetate) to prepare a mixed, liquid binder; mixing the mixed, binder with the ground rice husk to obtain a binder/rice husk mixture; extruding the binder/rice husk mixture through an extruder; and cooling the extruded mixture at room temperature.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a porous material having micropores capable of storing and releasing heat by phase change, which comprises a phase change material inserted into the micropores of a porous material medium such as activated carbon or silica gel so as to be capable of storing and releasing energy, and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the steps of: pre-treating a porous material medium to remove impurities from the micropores of the porous material medium, thereby opening the micropores; pre-treating a phase change material to make it possible to insert the phase change material into the micropores of the porous material medium; inserting the pretreated phase change material into the pretreated porous material medium; filtering the porous material medium filled with the phase change material to remove the phase change material remaining after the insertion step; and washing the filtered material.
