Liquid timber



German scientists invented the article under the name "Arboform", which means wood may replace the plastic in the future, as a substitute for a strong and clean plastic materials derived from oil.
Despite the fact that plastic was of the greatest inventions of the twentieth century, it contains materials are not biodegradable, and often contain cancer-causing substances and other toxic substances.
No less important is the most plastic materials derived from petroleum, a non-renewable source.
And the movement of "institution, Deutsche Welle," German news from a member of the Scientific Group as saying that the new material derived from the article Allegnin, in turn, derived from wood pulp, "which can be mixed Baketan or wood fibers and other additives to create a strong, clean alternative to plastic materials derived from oil."
It conveys the same source said the team leader Innouna Kaufmann saying that "separate the wood pulp industry for the three basic components Allegnin and pulp and Alheimesseliloz."
This article does not fit the current characteristics for the manufacture of toys and household appliances, because the separation of the fibers Allegnin cell is the addition of sulphide material. , Toys, household appliances should not be contained by the smell of sulfur smells.
But German researchers were able to reduce the sulfur content in the "Alorboform" 90 per cent.
And on the possibility of recycling of this new article, the source of the transfer of Innouna Kaufman said her team has produced components Alarboform and broken into small pieces, and then re-treated broken pieces. "
"We have done ten times, did not find any change in the characteristics of low sulfur bio-plastic, which means that it is possible to recycling."

Wood-Burning The Easy Way To Air Pollution

For more information about the medical hazards of wood smoke, visit Burning Issues, a non-profit research and educational organization. If you want to get rid of the odor from smoke, try the Gonzo Smoke Odor Eliminator. Many air purifiers are specifically designed to absorb smoke, tar, fine ash, and other airborne particulates, and the IQAir Multigas air purifier removes a wide spectrum of gases and particulates, including smoke. Small, hot fires give off less pollution than smoldering fires.

Use small pieces of wood. Make sure your wood has been split and dried for at least six months. Blueair air purifiers are specifically designed to handle the air pollution. Medical studies have linked air pollution from smoke.
An EPA study concluded that breathing wood smoke particles during high pollution days is equivalent to smoking 4 to 16 cigarettes. An EPA study concluded that breathing wood smoke appears to be even more dangerous than inhaling tobacco smoke. Inhaling wood smoke appears to be even more dangerous than inhaling tobacco smoke. If you want to get rid of the UK explains, "Biomass [wood] smoke is composed of a relatively equal mixture of coarse and ultra-fine particles and can penetrate deeply into the lung, producing a variety of morphologic and biochemical changes." "Mammalian lungs don't have defenses against small particles," points out Joel Schwartz of the UK explains, "Biomass [wood] smoke is composed of a relatively equal mixture of coarse and ultra-fine particles and can penetrate deeply into the lung, producing a variety of morphologic and biochemical changes." "Mammalian lungs don't have defenses against small particles," points out Joel Schwartz of the same chemicals as cigarette smoke, including carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, hazardous metals, and known carcinogens such as formaldehyde, dioxin, benzene, and toluene.
Many air purifiers are specifically designed to absorb smoke, tar, fine ash, and other airborne particulates, and the IQAir Multigas air purifier removes a wide spectrum of gases and particulates, including smoke. Small, hot fires give off less pollution than smoldering fires. Use small pieces of wood. There's something romantic and relaxing about sitting near a fireplace, hearing the crackle of the wood, and make sure your wood has been split and dried for at least six months.
Wood-burning fireplaces are becoming more popular.
