Biomass Densification
Tumuluru, Jaya Shankar This monograph discusses the various biomass feedstocks currently available for biofuels production, and mechanical preprocessing technologies to reduce the feedstock variability for biofuels applications.
Variability in the properties of biomass-in terms of moisture, particle size distribution, and low-density-results in storage, transportation, handling, and feeding issues. Currently, biorefineries face serious particle bridging issues, un...
