Torrefaction Process

A process for producing compacted torrefied biomass from pre-processed biomass. The process includes drying the pre-processed biomass in a dryer with heater exhaust gas from a heater, yielding dried biomass; torrefying the dried biomass with heat generated by the heater; compacting and pre-cooling t...

More Information
Summary:A process for producing compacted torrefied biomass from pre-processed biomass. The process includes drying the pre-processed biomass in a dryer with heater exhaust gas from a heater, yielding dried biomass; torrefying the dried biomass with heat generated by the heater; compacting and pre-cooling the torrefied biomass in a cooling compactor and further cooling the compacted torrefied biomass in a cooling tunnel, yielding the compacted torrefied biomass.
