In biomass harvesting and fuel preparation processes, grinding causes a prominent energy consumption penalty, which results in an analogous cost impact. This is due to the fibrous and tenacious nature of biomass. Torrefaction of biomass makes it brittle, as it diminishes its fibrous nature and, hence, it enhances its grindability. Nevertheless, grinding costs are still important and increase with...
The pyrolysis and combustion characteristics of two disparate kinds of pulverized biofuels, (i) Miscanthus which is an herbaceous biomass and (ii) Beechwood which is a woody biomass, were investigated at high heating rates and high temperatures. Both materials were burned in either raw or torrefied (at 275°C for 30min) states. The particles were in the nominal range of 160–200μm, as classified by...
