Torrefaction as preparation method of additive for improvement of soil properties
Original language description
Torrefaction is well known method for enhancement of biomass waste fuel properties. Main benefits of torrefied biomass are reduced water content and increased calorific value. In this study, torrefaction was used as possible method for utilization of biomass to create additive for soil properties improvement. Enormous use of chemical fertilizers is increasing with modern agriculture development, which may results in serious environmental impacts. Therefore finding renewable source of soil properties enhancer, which would improve the retention of nutrients and their accessibility in soils is important. Torrefaction of two types of biomass was carried out in the absence of oxygen in temperature 350 oC. For torrefaction, the batch pyromatic unit was used. Chemical composition of biomass as well as resulted biochar was determined. Levels of heavy metals were also monitored in torrefied biochar to evaluate its possibility of use in agriculture industry.
