🔥 Best Biomass Materials for Torrefied Pellets: Low vs. High Volatile Matter 🔍 Volatile Matter (VM) & Torrefaction Efficiency Torrefaction reduces volatile matter (VM), improving combustion characteristics and energy density. Biomass with higher VM (>60%) is more suitable for torrefaction because it allows greater mass loss, improving fixed carbon content and making the fuel more […]
🔥 Biomass Material: Volatile Matter, GCV, and Industry Applications 🌱 💡 Which Biomass Material is Best for Your Industry? Volatile Matter (VM) refers to the gases and vapors released from biomass when it is heated before complete combustion. It consists mainly of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and other light gases, affecting combustion behavior in different industries. […]
🔎 What are the challenges of high-silica biomass in pellet production? Characteristics of High-Silica Biomass: ✔️ High Ash Content: Leads to slagging and fouling in combustion systems.✔️ Abrasive Nature: Causes excessive wear on pellet mill dies and rollers.✔️ Low Energy Density: Results in poor combustion efficiency.✔️ Hard to Pelletize: High friction makes densification difficult. ⚠️ […]
