Superheated Steam Torrefaction for high-level solid biofuels.
Biomass torrefaction is used to produce high-level solid biofuels. The EU-funded BioTrainValue project will develop and test new technologies and equipment for biomass torrefaction with the application of superheated steam for high-value innovative bio-based products at the European scale.
BIOmass Valorisation via Superheated Steam Torrefaction, Pyrolisis, Gasification Amplified by
Multidisciplinary Researchers TRAINining for Multiple Energy and Products’ Added VALUEs
The project will provide new methodologies and experimental data for innovative small-scale reactors and agro-energy technology for treated solid biofuels with increased calorific value, reduced biodegradability, increased bulk and energy density, and cheaper transport and storage.
BioTrainValue will also result in direct bio-products, such as biofuels, fertilisers with better characteristics and biocarbon as an additive to fertilizers for agriculture and activated carbon for the chemical and energy industries.
