Abstract:One effective measure to achieve carbon neutrality is to shift away from coal. Wet torrefied biomass (WTB) can be the promising solid biofuels to replace coal, when high moisture content biomass is used as feedstock. To utilize WTB for industrial use, WTB with predetermined energy properties such as higher heating value (HHV) and solid mass yield (SMY) has to be produced to meet the requirement in coal-fired power plants and industrial boilers. In this study, the analytical approach to estimate SMY and HHV of … Show more
