Solid biofuels production from agricultural residues and processing by-products by means of torrefaction treatment: the case of sunflower chain

The high heterogeneity of some residual biomasses makes rather difficult their energy use. Their standardisation is going to be a key aspect to get good quality biofuels from those residues. Torrefaction is an interesting process to improve the physical and chemical properties of lignocellulosic bio...
