Biomass Gasification, Pyrolysis and Torrefaction is a practical guide to the handling and conversion of biomass into alternative fuel products. The book focuses on the design, analysis, and operational aspects biomass as a fuel in its gas, liquid, and solid states. Biomass is the most widely used non-fossil fuel in the world, showing a considerable long-term potential given the increasing proliferation of dedicated energy crops for biofuels.

This versatile resource not only explains the basic principles of energy conversion systems, but also provides valuable insight into the design of biomass gasifiers. The author provides many worked design problems, step-by-step design procedures and real data on commercially operating systems.

10 years of the author's research in the area Biomass fuel production
First book devoted to Biomass Gasification, Pyrolysis, & Torrefaction
Includes step-by-design procedures, data conversion tables, and worked out numerical examples
