Torrefaction Workshop - Market Implementation of a new Solid Biofuel and its midterm Prospects in Milan, Italy

The densification concepts and their adaptation for the new solid energy carrier play a key role here and will also be discussed. Experiences from the first commercially operated torrefaction plant in Europe will be integrated. Spanning these topics and also including further vital parts of the value chain, the EU-project SECTOR aims at advancing the market introduction of torrefied fuels.
Furthermore, the workshop will show the parallel research goals and trends outside the European Union emphasizing on the developments and experiences from North America. The workshop is organized by DBFZ Deutsches Biomasseforschungszentrum gGmbH (coordinator of SECTOR) and IEA Bioenergy Task 32.
