About Biomass Torrefaction Plant

Biomass torrefaction plant is an efficient system that converts raw biomass to a high-value energy-dense fuel. As a result of subjecting biomass to controlled heating under conditions of limited availability of oxygen, this plant produces a torrefied product with a higher heat value and much lower moisture content. On the process scale, torrefaction can be done on a small scale for home use, and on the industrial scale since the results of the process lead to improved combustion characteristics. Biomass torrefaction plant is one of the best innovations in biomass processing technology.

Efficient Biomass Conversion

Our torrefaction plant uses indirect heating and rotary reactor technology to optimize the conversion of woodchips, sawdust, and agricultural waste into environmentally-friendly biocoal. The process reduces moisture from feedstock (up to 50%) down to as low as 13%, ensuring superior energy yield and lower emissions for sustainable energy production.

Advanced Process Control

With a PLC/SCADA-based control system, the plant offers automatic control over all operational parameters. This allows for consistent product quality and safe operation, while the customizable size and capacity accommodate various industrial needs ranging from 1 to 8 tons per hour.

Turnkey Installation and Low Maintenance

Our on-site turnkey installation ensures swift commissioning and operational readiness. The modular plant design and easy-access engineering allow for simplified, low-cost maintenance, contributing to a long operational lifespan exceeding 10 years.

FAQs of Biomass Torrefaction Plant:

Q: How does the Biomass Torrefaction Plant process different types of biomass?

A: The plant can handle a wide range of woody and non-woody biomass, including woodchips, sawdust, and agricultural residues. Its rotary reactor and automatic feeding system efficiently process feedstock with up to 50% moisture, converting it into torrefied biocoal, char, and syngas.

Q: What are the primary benefits of using indirect heating in the rotary reactor?

A: Indirect heating prevents direct contact between the heat source and biomass, reducing the risk of combustion and ensuring uniform heating. This enhances torrefaction quality, increases thermal efficiency, and ensures safer, cleaner plant operation.

Q: When is the plant suitable for installation, and where can it be used?

A: The plant is available for turnkey, on-site installation and commissioning. It is ideal for industrial facilities, green energy projects, power plants, and manufacturers seeking alternative coal solutions or sustainable fuel exports.

Q: What control systems are employed, and what do they offer?

A: The plant utilizes PLC/SCADA-based automatic control systems for precise management of process parameters, allowing for continuous or batch operation, dependable product quality, and maximum operational safety.

Q: How is maintenance managed in this torrefaction plant?

A: Maintenance is minimal due to the plants accessible design and modular layout. Routine maintenance tasks can be swiftly performed, ensuring reliable operation and a lifespan of over 10 years with regular upkeep.

Q: What are the environmental benefits of producing torrefied biomass with this plant?

A: The plant processes biomass with low emissions, meeting international formaldehyde and emission standards. The resulting torrefied biomass serves as a cleaner alternative to coal, supporting green energy initiatives and reducing the carbon footprint.

Q: What is the process temperature range, and why is it important?

A: The torrefaction process operates between 220C and 320C, which is optimal for transforming biomass into energy-rich products while minimizing ash content (14%) and preserving high fuel quality for industrial applications.
