This work aims to build a comprehensive biomass torrefaction model, which can provide a wide range of information essential for industrialization and commercialization of the process. Norwegian forest residue (birch branches) was chosen as feedstock. The model is capable of presenting detailed distributions of main and by-products from the torrefaction process. In addition, important fuel properties...
The use of wood stoves for space heating in energy effective residential buildings can be problematic due to the batch combustion giving a highly transient heat production and the limited regulation of the combustion process. Increasing the heat storage capacity and lowering the maximum heat release from the stove has been proposed to improve the utility of wood stoves. Latent Heat Storage (LHS) solutions...
The pyrolysis of Norway spruce and birch woods under nitrogen atmosphere was studied by means of a thermogravimetric analyzer operated in the non-isothermal mode, followed by a kinetic analysis employing a three-pseudo-component model with nth-order reactions. Raw woods and the woods treated via wet torrefaction in the conditions of various temperatures (175, 200, 225 °C) and holding times (10, 30,...
