The SECTOR project focuses on developing torrefaction technology to convert various biomass types into high-energy-density solid biofuels. This process enhances biomass properties for easier transport and storage, aiming to support the market introduction of these bioenergy carriers for diverse applications, including…
Torrefaction is considered worldwide as a promising key technology for boosting large-scale implementation of bioenergy.
It involves heating biomass in the absence of oxygen to a temperature of 200 to 320 °C.
As a result, the biomass looses all its moisture and becomes easy to grind and water resistant, which reduces the risk of spontaneous ignition and biological degradation and permits outdoor storage.
By combining torrefaction with pelletisation or briquetting, biomass is converted into a hig…
