Future Prospects of Thermochemical Conversion
SJSI Processes of Biomass
Abstract
Authors: Producing green energy from renewable raw materials, organic waste
Rafat Al Afif and energy crops, will benefit society. Industrial biofuels might be
sustainable and non-polluting if they are correctly integrated with the
natural ecological cycles. In this context biomass thermal processing,
torrefaction, hydrothermal conversion, pyrolysis, and gasification could
