This favorable situation makes Brazil one of the countries with the greatest potential for the production development of torrefied woody biomass on a commercial scale. Torrefaction is a mild pyrolysis applied to increase the energy quality of the feedstock. The aim of this study was to evaluate the Brazilian potential of woody biomass torrefaction for energy purposes. An experimental study was performed evaluating this thermal treatment of eucalyptus wood chips on a semi-continuous screw reactor developed by a Brazilian university. The results showed the increases in the energy quality of eucalyptus wood chips as a function of torrefaction temperature and time. This thermal treatment was technically feasible for the hygroscopicity reduction and the increases of fixed carbon and calorific values of the woody biomass. 2019 artículo científico 0717-3644 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48561660002 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48561660002/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48561660002/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48561660002/48561660002.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48561660002/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=485 Maderas.
