红松应力木木材形成组织的化学组成特征分析

检测分析了天然红松应力木木材形成组织的乙酰溴木质素含量,傅里叶变换红外光谱和X射线衍射图谱。结果表明：木材形成组织木质素含量小于成熟木材,应压木中木质素含量高于正常材;木材形成组织中羟基特征峰的位置有异于成熟木材,在波数1 034~1 510 cm^-1处的吸收峰有明显差异,化学官能团的相对吸收强度低于成熟木材;应压木木材形成组织红外光谱特征峰的位置和峰形与对应木、正常木的基本相同;应压木全谱图各化学官能团的相对吸收强度大于正常木。木材形成组织X射线衍射强度低于成熟木材,应压木低于正常材和对应木;木材形成组织纤维素相对结晶度小于成熟木材,应压木低于正常材和对应木。说明木材形成过程中组织的化学特征是动态变化的。应力木形成中木材组织化学特征就与正常木有差异。     

曾候乙墓穴木椁微生物降解对木材危害及防治措施研究

从曾候乙墓分离到的16株菌,其中有11株为芽孢杆菌属类,4株微杆菌属,1林为黄色杆菌属。将16株细菌分别侵染6种木材,结果证明细菌降解对6种木材均有不同的韧性下降,个别木材出现腐烂病灶。2号菌降解后对泡桐、枣树、马尾松、香樟、刺槐和桑树分别下降8％,12％,10％,5％,10％和13％。3,5,6,7,8,9和16号菌对上述6种木材也有不同程度影响。而4,11,12,13,14和15号菌对6种木材的韧性下降影响不明显。但其渗透性大大提高了,因此也会影响木材的使用年限。采用杀菌、杀虫的石油气,乙醇等有机溶济,防治微生物降解产物对木材的浸蚀,均有较好的防菌、防认腐效果。     

沈阳清墓木质葬具的树种鉴定及生态环境的指示潜力

古墓葬器所用木材是我们了解当时植被、气候以及社会状况的重要材料。本文利用木材解剖学和树木年代学方法,对沈阳浑南水家村墓葬群出土的木质葬具进行树种识别与树木年轮定年研究。结果表明: 16个木质葬具样本中有7个为松科松属油松木材,有8个为松科落叶松属木材,很可能为长白落叶松,有1个为槭树科槭树属木材。这些树种至今在辽宁地区仍广泛分布,说明该地区森林结构(树种组成)相对稳定,在一定程度上反映了当时气候与现在相似。也表明清代盛京(今沈阳)地区平民墓葬木质葬具所用木材存在区域性的植物地理特征,并反映出当时的生产力发展水平,即均是低成本、易获得的乡土树种,且这些木材以针叶树为主,也有少量阔叶树。这些木材很可能来源于沈阳当地或辽东山区森林,浑河水道是木材运至沈阳的重要途径。部分油松和落叶松葬具木材可以较好地交叉定年,确定树木生长年代在1680s—1770s(清朝早期至中期)。这些样本的年轮宽度变化具有较好的一致性和较高的气候敏感度,反映出区域气候环境的一致性。这些木质葬具对清朝早期至中期的气候条件具有一定的指示潜力。     

非木材林产品的民族植物学研究进展

非木材林产品（NTFPs）是指从森林植被中采集的药材、食物（如野菜、野果等）、树脂树胶、纤维或其他非木材类产品,它们不仅为当地群众提供了食物、药材等日常生活必需品,而且也是许多地区原住民的重要经济收入来源。在收集整理相关国内外研究资料的基础上,从非木材林产品的集市民族植物学、非木材林产品的经济价值和对原住民经济收入的贡献、影响非木材林产品采集和利用的因素、非木材林产品采集对当地生物多样性的影响、原住民对非木材林产品的传统管理与保护等方面对近年来有关非木材林产品的民族植物学研究进展进行了综合评述,并对非木材林产品的民族植物学重点研究内容和方向提出了一些建议。     

木材上的微生物类群对木材的分解及其演替规律

论述了木材上的微生物类群以及各类群在木材生物分解过程中的演替规律 ,并解释了活立木心材能够发生腐朽的原因。结果表明 :能够生长在木材上的微生物类群有木材腐朽菌、木材软腐菌、木材变色菌、污染性霉菌、细菌、放线菌等多种。这些微生物类群共同合作完成对复杂的木质有机物质的生物分解。它们按一定次序进行作用 ,在木材生物分解的不同时期显示出明显的菌种协调与演替规律。一般情况是细菌、一些半知菌、接合菌和子囊菌等先驱微生物首先侵入 ,然后草本对策的木材腐朽菌开始出现 ,最后由竞争对策或忍耐对策的木腐菌取代草本对策的木腐菌 ,这时木材的分解过程就进入稳定的发展阶段 ,最后使木材分解或腐朽。木材腐朽最终是腐殖化阶段 ,这时微生物群落被土壤习居菌如毛霉、青霉、木霉、镰刀菌及细菌与放线菌等所取代。     

二十二种木材对家白蚁天然抗性的室内测定

白蚁蛀蚀不同树种的木材有明显的偏爱性,各种木材抵抗白蚁的蛀蚀能力也有很大差异。如在我国南方,用马尾松作房屋中的木构件,短短几年内就可能遭受白蚁蛀损,而某些抗蚁蛀良好的木材,使用年限超过百年的却不乏其例。研究太材对白蚁的天然抗性能为选择造林和绿化树种,合理用材以及寻找植物性抗白蚁物质提供依据。本工作对广东常见的二十二种本地产和外来树种的木材,用南方危害最大的家白蚁Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki作室内生物测定,并讨论了影响木材抗蚁蛀性的各种因素。     

木材的立体结构与花纹

在木本双子叶植物与裸子植物的茎中,形成层环绕在木质部外方,不断产生新的木质部,包围在原有木质部外面,逐年增多,形成了有用的木材。双子叶植物木材由导管分子、管胞、木纤维及木薄壁细胞等组成,松柏类等裸子植物的木材不具有导管与木纤维。这些木材分子的细胞壁有不同程度的木质化,即细胞壁纤维素间隙     

三种正常与矮化植物的木材比较观察

本文比较观察了三种不同木材类型的正常与矮化树木的木材结构:针叶材的太白红杉(Larix chinensis Beissn.)、散孔材的辽东桤木(Alnus sibirica Fisch.)和环孔材的蒙古栎(Quercus mongolica Fisch.)。这些植物在个体发育过程中,各年的年轮宽度及管状分子长度、宽度等变化,存在各自的规律性。这些规律并不因生长环境的差异而变更。不过,逆境下生长的矮化植株的年轮宽度和管状分子的大小明显地比正常的要窄小,同时在木材结构的其它数量性状上,也有较大变化;然而,其各自的种属定性特征仍保持稳定。这些似乎可说明:生态环境的变化对木材结构的数量性状有较大影响,但是对木材种属的定性特征则无明显作用。

Structure–function relationships of four compression wood types: micromechanical properties at the tissue and fibre level

The mechanisms behind compressive stress generation in gymnosperms are not yet fully understood. Investigating the structure–function relationships at the tissue and cell level, however, can provide new insights. Severe compression wood of all species lacks a S3 layer, has a high microfibril angle in the S2 layer and a high lignin content. Additionally, special features like helical cavities or spiral thickenings appear, which are not well understood in terms of their mechanical relevance, but need to be examined with regard to evolutionary trends in compression wood development. Thin compression wood foils and isolated tracheids of four gymnosperm species [Ginkgo biloba L., Taxus baccata L., Juniperus virginiana L., Picea abies (L.) Karst.] were investigated. The tracheids were isolated mechanically by peeling them out of the solid wood using fine tweezers. In contrast to chemical macerations, the cell wall components remained in their original condition. Tensile properties of tissue foils and tracheids were measured in a microtensile apparatus under wet conditions. Our results clearly show an evolutionary trend to a much more flexible compression wood. An interpretation with respect to compressive stress generation is discussed.     

Plasmonic Wood for High‐Efficiency Solar Steam Generation

Plasmonic metal nanoparticles are a category of plasmonic materials that can efficiently convert light into heat under illumination, which can be applied in the field of solar steam generation. Here, this study designs a novel type of plasmonic material, which is made by uniformly decorating fine metal nanoparticles into the 3D mesoporous matrix of natural wood (plasmonic wood). The plasmonic wood exhibits high light absorption ability (≈99%) over a broad wavelength range from 200 to 2500 nm due to the plasmonic effect of metal nanoparticles and the waveguide effect of microchannels in the wood matrix. The 3D mesoporous wood with numerous low‐tortuosity microchannels and nanochannels can transport water up from the bottom of the device effectively due to the capillary effect. As a result, the 3D aligned porous architecture can achieve a high solar conversion efficiency of 85% under ten‐sun illumination (10 kW m^?2). The plasmonic wood also exhibits superior stability for solar steam generation, without any degradation after being evaluated for 144 h. Its high conversion efficiency and excellent cycling stability demonstrate the potential of newly developed plasmonic wood to solar energy‐based water desalination.     

A re-appraisal of wood-fired combustion

Targets for a considerable increase in electricity generation from renewables have been set in order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel dependence. Extensive planting of willow, poplar and alder as energy crops has been planned for power generation plants which use wood as the fuel. The current trend is to use gasification or pyrolysis technology, but alternatively a case may be made for wood combustion, if wood becomes readily available. A range of wood-fired circulating fluidised bed combustion (CFBC) plants, using from 10 to 10,000 dry tonne equivalent (DTE)/day, was examined using the ECLIPSE process simulation package. Various factors, such as wood moisture content, harvest yield, afforestation level (AL) and discounted cash flow rate (DCF) were investigated to test their influence on the efficiency and the economics of the systems. Steam cycle conditions and wood moisture content were found to have the biggest effects on the system efficiencies; DCF and AL had the largest influences on the economics. Plants which could handle more than 500 dry tonnes/day could be economically viable; those using more than 1000 dry tonnes wood/day could be competitive with large-scale, conventional coal-fired plants, if sufficient wood were available.     

High‐Performance Solar Steam Device with Layered Channels: Artificial Tree with a Reversed Design

Solar steam generation, combining the most abundant resources of solar energy and unpurified water, has been regarded as one of the most promising techniques for water purification. Here, an artificial tree with a reverse‐tree design is demonstrated as a cost‐effective, scalable yet highly efficient steam‐generation device. The reverse‐tree design implies that the wood is placed on the water with the tree‐growth direction parallel to the water surface; accordingly, water is transported in a direction perpendicular to what occurs in natural tree. The artificial tree is fabricated by cutting the natural tree along the longitudinal direction followed by surface carbonization (called as C‐L‐Wood). The nature‐made 3D interconnected micro‐/nanochannels enable efficient water transpiration, while the layered channels block the heat effectively. A much lower thermal conductivity (0.11 W m^?1 K^?1) thus can be achieved, only 1/3 of that of the horizontally cut wood. Meanwhile, the carbonized surface can absorb almost all the incident light. The simultaneous optimizations of water transpiration, thermal management, and light absorption results in a high efficiency of 89% at 10 kW m^?2, among the highest values in literature. Such wood‐based high‐performance, cost‐effective, scalable steam‐generation device can provide an attractive solution to the pressing global clean water shortage problem.     

Quantifying GWI of Wood Pellet Production in the Southern United States and Its Subsequent Utilization for Electricity Production in The Netherlands/Florida

This study attempts to determine global warming impact (GWI) of imported wood pellets from the Southern United States for electricity production in The Netherlands. An attempt is also made to determine GWI of utilizing produced wood pellets within the state of Florida for electricity generation instead of exports. A life-cycle approach is adopted to determine overall GWIs of both the cases. Economic objectives of forest landowners are also incorporated to determine biomass (pulpwood and harvesting residues) availability from a hectare of slash pine plantation. The GWI of a unit of electricity produced at a power plant located at Geertruidenberg, The Netherlands and Gainesville, Florida was 296.4 and 177.5 g of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gas, respectively. An overall saving of 72.6% in greenhouse gas emissions was estimated for every kilowatt-hour of electricity generated using imported wood pellets in The Netherlands when compared with coal-based electricity. This value was found to be 82.4% if produced wood pellets are utilized within Florida for electricity generation instead of exports. A need exists to evaluate the potential of other feedstocks for wood pellet production like understory forest biomass. Additionally, macroeconomic and ecological impacts of utilizing forest biomass for wood pellet production needs to be quantified.     

Characterisation of the initial degradation stage of Scots pine (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Pinus sylvestris</Emphasis> L.) sapwood after attack by brown-rot fungus <Emphasis Type="Italic">Coniophora puteana</Emphasis>

In our study, early period degradation (10 days) of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) sapwood by the brown-rot fungus Coniophora puteana (Schum.: Fr.) Karst. (BAM Ebw.15) was followed at the wood chemical composition and ultrastructurelevel, and highlighted the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). An advanced decay period of 50 days was chosen for comparison of the degradation dynamics. Scanning UV microspectrophotometry (UMSP) analyses of lignin distribution in wood cells revealed that the linkages of lignin and polysaccharides were already disrupted in the early period of fungal attack. An increase in the lignin absorption A₂₈₀ value from 0.24 (control) to 0.44 in decayed wood was attributed to its oxidative modification which has been proposed to be generated by Fenton reaction derived ROS. The wood weight loss in the initial degradation period was 2%, whilst cellulose and lignin content decreased by 6.7% and 1%, respectively. Lignin methoxyl (–OCH₃) content decreased from 15.1% (control) to 14.2% in decayed wood. Diffuse reflectance Fourier-transform infrared (DRIFT) spectroscopy corroborated the moderate loss in the hemicellulose and lignin degradation accompanying degradation. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra and spin trapping confirmed the generation of ROS, such as hydroxyl radicals (HO^∙), in the early wood degradation period. Our results showed that irreversible changes in wood structure started immediately after wood colonisation by fungal hyphae and the results generated here will assist in the understanding of the biochemical mechanisms of wood biodegradation by brown-rot fungi with the ultimate aim of developing novel wood protection methods.

Life Cycle Assessment of End‐of‐Life Management Options for Construction and Demolition Debris

A life cycle assessment (LCA) of various end‐of‐life management options for construction and demolition (C&D) debris was conducted using the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Municipal Solid Waste Decision Support Tool. A comparative LCA evaluated seven different management scenarios using the annual production of C&D debris in New Hampshire as the functional unit. Each scenario encompassed C&D debris transport, processing, separation, and recycling, as well as varying end‐of‐life management options for the C&D debris (e.g., combustion to generate electricity versus landfilling for the wood debris stream and recycling versus landfilling for the nonwood debris stream) and different bases for the electricity generation offsets (e.g., the northeastern U.S. power grid versus coal‐fired power generation). A sensitivity analysis was also conducted by varying the energy content of the C&D wood debris and by examining the impact of basing the energy offsets on electricity generated from various fossil fuels. The results include impacts for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, criteria air pollutants, ancillary solid waste production, and organic and inorganic constituents in water emissions. Scenarios with nonwood C&D debris recycling coupled with combustion of C&D wood debris to generate electricity had lower impacts than other scenarios. The nonwood C&D debris recycling scenarios where C&D wood debris was landfilled resulted in less overall impact than the scenarios where all C&D debris was landfilled. The lowest impact scenario included nonwood C&D debris recycling with local combustion of the C&D wood debris to generate electricity, providing a net gain in energy production of more than 7 trillion British thermal units (BTU) per year and a 130,000 tons per year reduction in GHG emissions. The sensitivity analysis revealed that for energy consumption, the model is sensitive to the energy content of the C&D wood debris but insensitive to the basis for the energy offset, and the opposite is true for GHG emissions.

Characterizing the conservation effect of clear coatings on photodegradation of wood

Photodiscoloration of clear-coated wood may be caused by the yellowing of both clear coating film and underlying wood, or either of them. Wood specimens covered with two types of free polyurethane films with/without light stabilizer were used to simulate the photodiscoloration of clear-coated wood. Percent UV transmission of aromatic polyurethane (PU) films decreased after irradiation, whereas aliphatic polyurethane (PUA) films significantly increased with irradiation time resulting in further photoyellowing of wood beneath the PUA film. A light reflection model was used to elucidate discoloration caused separately by the clear coating film and the underlying wood. After 24 days of light irradiation, clear coating and the underlying wood contributed respectively, 40.70% and 59.30% discoloration of PU-coated specimens, and the corresponding values for PUA-coated specimens were 5.15% and 94.85%. PU film with light stabilizer reduced lignin degradation and generation of carbonyl derivatives in the underlying wood.
