Compaction behavior, mechanical properties, and moisture resistance of torrefied and non-torrefied biomass pellets
Biomass properties have a potential to be improved by torrefaction, a thermal pretreatment process that removes hemicellulose. The intent in using torrefaction for biomass is to increase the carbon content and calorific value, as well as reduce the hydrophilic nature of woody-biomass. To facilitate …

Understanding the Impacts of Ammonia Fiber Expansion (AFEX™) Pretreatment and Densification on Densified Products Quality and the Bioproducts Yield Through Enzymatic Hydrolysis and Fast Pyrolysis
<p>Lignocellulosic biomass poses significant challenges during handling, transportation, and storage due to its low bulk density. Densification involves conversion of the low bulk density biomass into a highly compacted product which helps in improving the handling, transporting, and storage …
