Optimization of woody biomass torrefaction in inert and oxidative atmospheres using combined experimental and modelling approach

, 2023
Torrefaction is a thermochemical pretreatment method to increase the energy density of biomass. The process is carried out at 200-300 ⁰C in an inert atmosphere. However, large-scale use of inert gas is neither realistic nor economical.

BIOMASS TORREFACTION – GRINDABILITY AND DUST EXPLOSIBILITY

, 2015
Torrefaction, a thermo-chemical process, improves properties such as energy density, grindability, hydrophobicity of the biomass. As a result of the altered properties, the biomass behaves more like coal increasing the feasibility of co-firing.
