  Review on Effects of Torrefaction Process on the Biomass

  By Ronak G. Megha

  Abstract: This paper contains review of the effects of torrefaction process variables on several types of biomass. In the torrefaction process, biomass is slowly heated in an inert atmosphere and temperature ranges from 200 to 300°C. This results in the complete degradation of hemicellulose content of the biomass and changes the properties of the biomass. Due to the improved properties, it becomes more convenient fuel. It is also called a pretreatment …
