Abstract
There is an urgent need for replacement of fossil fuels worldwide. Raw biomass has a low energy density, contains too much moisture, can rot, and it is hygroscopic. This paper presents a very prominent thermal technology that could overcome mentioned deficiencies of raw biomass. This technology is known as torrefaction. Torrefaction is mainly used to convert lignocellulosic materials into 'fuels' that can be used in power plants, combustion units, or gasifiers.
