AB  - Thermal decomposition of hydrous volcanic glass occurs through the release of different water species under overlapping processes over wide temperature range. Its investigation is of practical interest since it constitutes integral processing part towards its valorization as source for the production of high-quality porous material for various applications. The study presents investigation of thermal decomposition of hydrous rhyolite through the non-isothermal solid-state kinetics approach. Rhyolite decomposition occurs through three partially overlapping processes, where loosely held and chemically bound water, as well as hydroxyl release at different temperature regions and through different mechanisms. The separation of overlapped thermal curves was done through peak deconvolution method using Frazier-Suzuki equation. Subsequently, the isoconversional (model-free) Friedman, generalized master-plots and Kissinger methods were applied for the determination of apparent activation energy (E-a), reaction model (f(a)) and pre-exponential factor (A) for each individual reaction step considered. Using the kinetic triplet values of each process, the kinetic rate equations were combined allowing precise simulation of the dehydration and dihydroxylation processes. A comparison of model results with thermogravimetric (TG) data, as well as data from the literature, showed the satisfactory accuracy of the model in the simulation of the process and the successful prediction of each water type fraction, during the process evolution. Spectroscopy techniques in UV-VIS and NIR (near infra-red) spectral ranges were applied to raw rhyolite and sample with different water content allowed calculation of color coordinates and its correlation with dehydration and dehydroxylation degrees, and also identification of water species.

AB  - The presented paper deals with the influence of the heating rate on combustion characteristics (reactivity and reactivity evaluation, ignition index (D-i), burnout index (D-f), the combustion performance index (S), and the combustion stability index (R-W)) of the protective coronavirus face masks. Two types of commonly used face masks in different state (new and exploited) were investigated by TG-DTG analysis in an air atmosphere, directly coupled with mass spectrometry (MS). Based on the experimental results, the impact of ultimate and proximate analysis data on the evolved gas analysis (EGA) was discussed. Also, the derived values from thermo-analytical (TA) data were compared with the literature reports, related to individual constitutive face mask materials. According to the performed research, it was established that different maximal reaction rate values at various heating rates indicate the complex nature of coronavirus face mask thermo-oxidative degradation, which is stimulated with carbon oxidation reactions and volatile matter (VM) release. By detailed analysis of obtained TG-DTG profiles, it was established that process takes place through the multiple-step reaction pathways, due to many vigorous radical reactions, causes by polymers degradation. The performed research was done to evaluate the possible utilization of coronavirus waste to energy production and sustainable pandemic environmental risk reduction.

AB  - Rhyolite is an extrusive, igneous rock of aluminosilicate composition that upon rapid cooling forms obsidian. Obsidian is amorphous and contains limited water portions ( lt  2 mass%); however, secondary hydration turns it either to perlite (H2O approximate to 2-5 mass%) or pitchstone (> 5 mass%). In the current study, kinetics of hydrous rhyolite dehydration were investigated by thermogravimetry up to 1000 degrees C, at heating rates of 2.5, 5, 10 and 20 degrees C min(-1)and under inert atmosphere. The mass loss is approx. 7.6 mass%, occurs along wide temperature range (100-800 degrees C) and is solely attributed to the release of molecular water ((H2O)(m)) and hydroxyl groups (OH). Rhyolite dehydration was considered as a solid-state reaction, and the apparent activation energy (E-a) of dehydration was calculated throughout the whole conversion range (a) by applying the isoconversional Friedman and advanced Vyazovkin methods. Both methods revealed inverse sigmoid trend in E(a)values versus conversion degree, possessing almost stable value of 61 +/- 5 kJ mol(-1)for Friedman method and 59.44 kJ mol(-1)for Vyazovkin method on conversion range between 0.25 and 0.75, and sharp increase at higher conversion degree. The intensive change inE(a)during dehydration progression is attributed to the change in releasing species (from (H2O)(m)to OH). Raman and FT-IR spectroscopy analyses of raw and partially dehydrated samples at different stages revealed that up to 300 degrees C mainly (H2O)(m)is diffused out of the material causing sample enrichment in OH groups. OH release, which occurs at relatively higher temperature, is accompanied by increase in apparent E(a)value of dehydration. Concerning microstructure of raw rhyolite, it exhibits a network of micro-fractures which serve as water release routes. Upon heating, more and wider fractures are created. At 600 degrees C, fractures merging occurs creating voids, which constitute forerunners of the expansion phenomenon. Further temperature increase causes material softening allowing local plastic deformation, which under the high pressure that is exerted by the releasing water species incites the formation of large cavities and fractures, initiating expansion.
