Similar to the application of torrefied pellets in co-firing, black pellets or torchips provide advantages for decentralized heating and CHPs. Compared to untreated biomass or wood pellets, the higher energy density results in lower transportation, handling and storage cost. Furthermore, the absence of biological activity and improved hydrophobic behavior are beneficial aspects that simplify storage concepts also for small ...

Co-firing is the (partial) substitution of fossil coal by biomass in coal-fired power plants. Torrefied biomass offers the most cost-effective route to significantly increase the use of biomass as a renewable energy source and to reduce the CO2 footprint of industrial coal ...

The primary application of TSI technology is for the drying of wood chips to make Industrial Wood Pellets. In this industry TSI builds many complete Dryer Island Systems (see products page) that include a turn-key process island complete with Heat Energy, Drying and Pollution Control. Industrial Wood Pellets are a renewable fuel used in Utility Power Stations instead of coal. Whereas coal emits CO2 into the atmosphere with no reciprocal absorption or other mitigation, wood pellets come from trees that absorb CO2 ...
