Progress and Perspectives in Biomass Gasification Focusing on Feedstock Characteristics and System Adaptability

open access: yesInternational Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Achieving carbon neutrality requires scalable low‐carbon technologies that can efficiently utilize renewable resources. Biomass gasification is a key thermochemical route for producing versatile synthesis gas for fuels and chemicals, yet large‐scale deployment is constrained by feedstock heterogeneity, tar formation, and ash‐related operational issues.

High-temperature rapid devolatilization of biomasses with varying degrees of torrefaction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Torrefied biomass is a coal-like fuel that can be burned in biomass boilers or co-fired with coal in co-firing furnaces. To make quantitative predictions regarding combustion behavior, devolatilization should be accurately described.

Influence of torrefaction treatment on wood powder properties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
International audienceTorrefaction is a thermal pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass before gazification. This mild form of pyrolysis, carried out at temperatures between 200 and 300 °C, changes the physical and chemical properties of the material. In

Toward Fossil‐Free Steelmaking: Overview of Physiochemical Properties of Hydrochar and Its Application in Blast Furnace and Electric Arc Furnace Processes

open access: yescScience, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The steel industry is among one of the largest CO2 emitters in the world. To meet climate targets, replacing fossil‐based carbon with renewable biocarbon in metallurgical processes, particularly in blast furnaces (BFs) and electric arc furnaces (EAFs), has emerged as a viable short‐ to mid‐term solution.

Influence of Post‐Harvest Treatments on Antioxidant Potential and Metabolomics Profile of Coffee Beans

open access: yesFuture 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 ...
