Co-combustion is a practical way to utilize biomass in utility boilers, and torrefaction can effectively improve the intrinsic drawbacks of biomass. In this study, the combustion experiments were conducted in both thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) and circulating fluidized bed (CFB) test system to ev...
