Effect of Torrefaction on Aerosol Emissions at Combustion Temperatures Relevant for Domestic Burning and Power Generation

Torrefied biomass is a promising carbon-neutral alternative to coal. However, the effect of torrefaction on aerosol production in biomass combustion is understudied. Here, we compared the emissions and physicochemical properties of aerosols produced by the combustion of raw pine, torrefied pine, and...

Zusammenfassung:Torrefied biomass is a promising carbon-neutral alternative to coal. However, the effect of torrefaction on aerosol production in biomass combustion is understudied. Here, we compared the emissions and physicochemical properties of aerosols produced by the combustion of raw pine, torrefied pine, and bituminous coal. At the highest combustion temperature of 1000 °C, aerosol emission from coal was 5.2 ± 0.4 mg/MJ, while emissions from raw and torrefied pine were negligible (
