Energy From Vast Biomass 11, Wood Torrefaction
• -->cont: •
•
:
Torrefaction: Torrefied Pellets/BioCoal: Lower temp 200-300°C range
oxygen-less process of dry material with final product with 70% of original mass
with 90% of energy potential retained in compressed form: increase per volume
heat capacity, hydrophobic (nonhygroscopic), overall lower cost than pellets per
energy produced as delivered.
• Also various other benefits(eg easy grinding for co-feeding with coal, less
abrasion of engine if used as coal water slurry fuel than conventional coal etc),
some bio-binder pretreatment & palletizing before heat processing generally has
better quality.
• Not as economically disruptive as 2nd Gen bioethanol due to solid nature.
Longer presence in Western Europe, particularly in Netherlands(Blackwood
Technology, Torrcoal+), Other nations(Arbaflame, Arigna Biofuels, Torrec+),
Euro Major's participation(ANDRITZ, AREVA+), Largest producers are in US with
over 200,000ton/yr capacity(Zilkha Biomass, New Biomass Energy), but
generally North America operations have newer participation with same level
production cap. as Europe(Diacarbon, Airex Energy, Solvay Biomass), Some
claim no indoor storage needs for rain(Arbaflame, HM3 Energy+), non western
producers are rare(BioWindbell Technology+)
