✅ Which biomass materials are better for making torrefied pellets—low or high volatile matter?
🔥 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 energy-dense. Biomass with low VM (<40%) may not benefit as much from torrefaction since the reduction in volatiles is minimal. 📊 Comparison: High vs. Low Volatile Matter Biomass for Torrefaction 🌿 Biomass Type🔥 Volatile Matter ( [...]
