Torrefaction of napier grass at 330 ℃ resulted in very high heating value, but without causing difficulties in the pelletizing process. High energy density black pellets can be qualified substitute for coal in power generation plants. ...
Making palm EFB biochar is an efficient waste management solution, meanwhile it also promotes atmospheric carbon removal. The positive characteristics of palm EFB biochar have been verified by experiments and analysis....
Commissioned by American researchers, SIMEC conducted pyrolysis experiments on Chlorella vulgaris in accordance with the research and development agreement. Pyrolysis was conducted on 5 kg in triplicate at a temperature of 300 degree Celsius...
In May 2023, SIMEC was entrusted to take a series of pelletizing tests using eucalyptus wood wastes. To make wood pellets is an important solution to upgrade the value of eucalypts....
The critical parameters of biomass torrefaction process include temperature, oxygen content, heating rate and residence time. Non-oxidative conditions with low heating rates and shorter residence time resulted in the best torrefied biomass....
SIMEC focus on technology R&D for converting diversity of biomasses, including bagasse, into qualified biochar which comply with EBC-Agro Organic criterion, with lower content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and H/Corg ratio (molar)....
