Pelletization and Torrefaction of coffee grounds, chaff and rapeseed straw.
Original language description
Waste biomass pelletization is a suitable process for obtaining energy dense solid fuel. If the pellets are further processed by torrefaction, both their qualitative and energy parameters are changed. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of the torrefaction process on pellets made from coffee grounds, chaff from garden and rapeseed straw. Mechanical parameters such as pellet durability index, wettability index of the pellets, their water moisture resistance, hardness or specific and bulk density were determined for evaluation. Furthermore, pellet energy parameters such as heat of combustion, calorific value or elemental analysis were compared. Pelletization of the above mentioned waste biomass and torrefaction of the pellets were carried out on pilot plants.
