The rapid increase in population has been identified as one of the main reasons for the
abundance generation of municipal solid waste (MSW), which could be advantageous when …

The utilization of lignocellulosic biomass is closely related to one of the renewable sources
of energy. However, a few inherent properties of lignocellulosic biomass such as high …

Biomass has been known as a potential energy source for biofuel production to replace
fossil fuels aiming to minimize greenhouse gas emissions. However, one of the hurdles to …

Torrefaction has been recognized as a promising strategy to improve handling and storage
properties of wood-based pellets, thus producing a uniform-quality commodity with high …

Torrefaction in partially oxidative atmospheres is a non-traditional approach to the thermal
pre-treatment of biomass. Despite the potential benefits arising from this compared to …

The potential of producing high calorific value (CV) solid fuel was investigated in a helical
screw rotation-induced (HSRI) fluidized bed reactor based on mechanical fluidization. The …

The use of coal for energy generation is facing serious scrutiny because of environmental
concerns. As a result, there is a growing global interest in biomass, a renewable and readily …

This work presents a study on the properties of upgraded agro-pellets produced by
torrefaction and co-pelletization process, where starch-rich food waste was used as a pellet …

This study is the first report that focuses on investigating the effects of torrefaction on the
bioenergy-related properties, combustion behavior, and potential emissions of banana leaf …

Torrefaction is a low-temperature thermochemical treatment technology to enhance solid
biomass fuel properties for energy applications. The available literature on torrefaction …
