Biomass Torrefaction and Densification Review by Carolina Restrepo Londoño is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document provides a state-of-the-art review of biomass torrefaction, densification, and applications. It reveals that torrefaction of various biomass species and their components has been extensively studied to understand weight loss as a function of temperature, time, and particle size. Torrefaction increases biomass heating value and hydrophobicity. When torrefied biomass is densified into pellets, more energy is required to achieve similar densities as regular pellets. Economics analyses show torref
