Modeling of biomass supply system by combining computational methods – A review article
(Elsevier, 2019-04-03)
As computing power increases, more complex computational models are utilized for biomass supply system studies. The paper describes three commonly used modeling methods in this context, geographic information systems, ...
Effect of heat integration method and torrefaction temperature on the performance of an integrated CHP-torrefaction plant
(Elsevier, 2015-07-01)
An important factor for industrial-scale implementation of torrefaction – a thermal pre-treatment technology that enhances the fuel characteristics of biomass – is the requirement for a low-cost source of heat energy. ...
Statistical analysis of sustainable production of algal biomass from wastewater treatment process
(Elsevier, 2018-12-21)
Algal biodiesel is one of the most promising renewable and eco-friendly source of energy for transportation, when algae is produced from wastewater. During the process, both goals of biodiesel production and wastewater ...
A survey analysis of the wood pellet industry in Finland: Future perspectives
(Elsevier Ltd, 2017)
Finland has the greatest forest cover of European countries and thus considerable raw material potential for wood pellet market development. Wood pellet production and consumption volumes in the country have increased ...

Torrefied biomass has considerable potential as a biomass fuel to replace coal in energy and process heat production. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the potential of torrefied biomass in different industries, both ...
Five years left – How are the EU member states contributing to the 20% target for EU's renewable energy consumption; the role of woody biomass
(Elsevier Ltd, 2016)
The European Union has set ambitious targets of raising the share of EU energy consumption produced from renewable resources from 20% by 2020 to 27% by 2030. The aim of this paper is to assess the role of woody biomass in ...
Numerical modelling of sorption-enhanced gasification: Development of a fuel decomposition model
(Elsevier, 2020-12-16)
Sorption-enhanced gasification (SEG) is a promising technology for producing renewable feedstock gas to be used in biofuel synthesis processes, especially in dimethyl ether (DME) synthesis. To adopt the technology on a ...
Reactivity characterization of municipal solid waste and biomass
(Elsevier, 2019-06-22)
The composition, heating value, and reactivity of different municipal and industrial solid waste materials were studied and compared with biomass and coal samples. Reactivity characterization was performed in a vertical ...
Fast oxidative pyrolysis of eucalyptus wood residues to replace fossil oil in pulp industry
(Elsevier, 2023-01-15)
This study evaluates the potential of the oxidative fast pyrolysis (OFP) of eucalyptus wood residues (EWR) for producing bio-oil to replace fossil fuels in the lime kilns of the pulp industry. OFP is an alternative to ...
Design and verification of a hermetic high-speed turbogenerator concept for biomass and waste heat recovery applications
(Elsevier, 2020-09-11)
Many waste heat recovery and biomass applications offer opportunities for small-scale steam turbines to produce electricity and to improve systems’ energy efficiency. However, the currently used axial turbine-based technology ...
