Effect of Torrefaction on the Physiochemical Properties of White Spruce Sawdust for Biofuel Production

Torrefaction pretreatment is a mild form of pyrolysis that has the potential to produce a high-quality raw material for making biofuel that serves as a replacement for coal in the bioenergy industry. Microwave-assisted torrefaction was conducted on white spruce sawdust (WSS) at temperatures of 200 °...
