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.

Microwave-assisted hydrothermal carbonization of rapeseed husk: A strategy for improving its solid fuel properties [PDF]
, 2016 Hydrothermal carbonization of a waste biomass material is a green and promising technique for improving its solid fuel properties, which does not require pretreatment procedure such as drying of the biomass.

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2026.This study focused on the advanced fabrication and application of agro‐waste biomass/natural lignocellulosic fiber‐derived structural CNC‐FBC‐based multifunctional biopolymeric nanoadsorbents in industrial wastewater treatment technology. These CNC‐FBC‐based biopolymeric nanosorbents would be a sustainable alternative to fossil‐based, hazardous ones ...

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

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.

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 1100-1120, March 2026.An overview of municipal solid waste torrefaction under various sweep gases. Abstract This study investigates the impact of torrefaction on municipal solid waste (MSW) fractions, focusing on energy recovery, calorific value enhancement, mass yield reduction, and energy densification under both nitrogen (N2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) atmospheres.

The Viability of Interstate Collaboration in the Absence of Federal Climate Change Legislation [PDF]
, 2011 Torrefaction of biomass together with gasification in entrained-flow reactors is a new possible way of producing synthesis gas. The synthesis gas can later be used for the production of renewable liquid fuels. This is highly desirable since the transport
