Torrefaction

Torrefaction is a thermal pretreatment process in bioenergy conversion that belongs to the category of thermochemical conversion methods, distinguished by its operation at relatively low temperatures (200–300 °C) under inert atmosphere to enhance the fuel properties of biomass through partial devolatilization and dehydration.
