Torrefaction of Biomass for Energy Applications: From Fundamentals
to Industrial Scale explores the processes, technology, end-use,
and economics involved in torrefaction at the industrial scale for
heat and power generation. Its authors combine their industry
experience with their academic expertise to provide a thorough
overview of the topic. Starting at feedstock pretreatment, followed
by torrefaction processes, the book includes plant design and
operation, safety aspects, and case studies focusing on the needs
and challenges of the industrial scale. Commercially available
technologies are examined and compared, and their economical
evaluation and life cycle assessment are covered as well. Attention
is also given to non-woody feedstock, alternative applications,
derived fuels, recent advances, and expected future developments.
For its practical approach, this book is ideal for professionals in
the biomass industry, including those in heat and power generation.
It is also a useful reference for researchers and graduate students
in the area of biomass and biofuels, and for decision makers,
policy makers, and analysts in the energy field.
