Integrated torrefaction vs. external torrefaction – A thermodynamic analysis for the case of a thermochemical biorefinery [PDF]

open access: yesEnergy, 2014
Abstract Integrated and external torrefaction is analyzed and compared via thermodynamic modeling. In this paper, integrated torrefaction is defined as torrefaction integrated with entrained flow gasification. External torrefaction is defined as the decentralized production of torrefied wood pellets and centralized conversion of the pellets by ...
