Biomass torrefaction: Modeling of reaction thermochemistry

Based on the evolution of volatile and solid products predicted by a previous model for willow torrefaction (Bates and Ghoniem, 2012) a thermochemical model has been developed to describe their thermal, chemical, and physical properties as well as the rates of heat release. The first stage of torref...
