Qualitative and kinetic analysis of torrefaction of lignocellulosic biomass using DSC-TGA-FTIR

Torrefaction is a thermochemical conversion technique to improve the fuel properties of lignocellulosic biomass by treating at temperature 200 ℃-300 ℃ in the minimum oxygen environment for a reasonable residence time. In this study, thermal decomposition and thermal activities of miscanthus and whea...
