Experimental and modelling study of the torrefaction of empty fruit bunches as a potential fuel for palm oil mill boilers

Empty fruit bunches (EFBs) in the current bulky form are low in energy density and highly moist making them an unattractive option as a solid fuel for producing steam and electricity in palm oil mill biomass boilers. Pre-treatment of EFBs using torrefaction is required in order to improve its energy...
