Production of High Energy-dense Solid Biofuel and Biopolymer Filler via Hydrothermal Carbonization of Carob Fruit

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions
In this study fresh carob tree fruits (CF), a very widespread botanical species in the Mediterranean basin, were hydrothermally carbonized (HTC) at 200, 230, 250, and 280 °C for a residence time of 0.5 h and a biomass-to-water mass ratio (B/W) of 0.1. CF
