An Index for Quantifying the Degree of Torrefaction
BioResources, 2017 Torrefaction, a thermochemical pre-treatment process, is used to enhance the properties of biomass to make it more compatible with solid fossil fuels. A quantitative index (TI) is proposed here to define the degree or quality of torrefaction especially ...

Torrefaction behaviour of various biomass types: kinetics of solid mass loss and release of volatiles [PDF]
, 2011 Feedstock variability is a crucial issue for industrialization of biomass conversion processes. Indeed, this variability may imply large differences of chemical reaction rates and products yields and therefore differences of reactors design.

Torrefaction of pine wood in a continuous system and optimization of torrefaction conditions
International Journal of Energy Research, 2018 Red pine wood particles were torrefied in a screw conveyor reactor system continuously having a capacity of 5 kg/hour. During torrefaction, operating conditions were very important. Changes in the reactor temperature and the reactor residence times had large influences on product yields. With increasing torrefaction temperature, the volatile matter and

Future Postharvest and Food, Volume 2, Issue 4, Page 458-473, December 2025.(1) The secondary metabolite profile of coffee beans was determined. (2) Processing affects not only the metabolite profile but also the volatile compound content. (3) Caffeine was the most abundant metabolite in all samples. (4) The fermentation‐roasting treatment improved the metabolite profile, whereas roasting, fermentation and soaking followed by ...

A study of the importance of secondary reactions in char formation and pyrolysis : a dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Process Engineering at Massey University, Manawatū, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2016 Anthropogenic climate change, caused primarily by excessive emissions of carbon dioxide, has led to a renewed interest in char, the solid product of pyrolysis. When applied to soil as biochar it can both sequester carbon and improve soil function.
