Torrefaction. Prospects and Application
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2016 Replacing of fossil fuels to biomass, including partial replacement (achieved with co-firing of coal and biomass) is one of the priority problems of modern power producing. In addition to the energy aspects, this is important in terms of reducing harmful man-made impact of fuel and energy sector on the ecological situation.
