Abstract:So far, the torrefaction process has been merely discussed based on the physical and chemical characteristics of the final product, but the mechanism has not been yet pondered and investigated. Thus far, microwave torrefaction has been predominately used for thermal pre-treatment; therefore, a paradigm shift in the methodology has been introduced by using a Joule heating system. The article mainly focuses on the thermal engineering aspect of the torrefaction process. The densified black pine underwent thermal … Show more
