Torrification is a thermochemical process that occurs at temperatures lower than the pyrolysis process as a pretreatment to improve biomass characteristics for use as biofuel energy in power generation. An experimental study was carried out in a batch reactor at three temperatures (240 °C, 260 °C and 280 °C) with residence time of 30 and 60 minutes. At the indicated operating conditions by elemental analysis, higher heating value and thermogravimetric analysis were evaluated. Result showed that there was a reduction in the oxygen/carbon (O/C) and hydrogen/carbon (H/C) ratios, causing an increase in the thermal energy quality of torrified wood, about of 28 % and 47 % at temperatures of 260 °C with residence time of 60 minutes and 280 °C with 30 minutes, respectively. A thermogravimetric analysis showed that at 260 °C the hemicellulose was almost completely degraded leaving the fuel in better conditions for combustion or gasification processes. 2021 artículo científico 0717-3644 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48565417003 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48565417003/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48565417003/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48565417003/48565417003.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/485/48565417003/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=485 Maderas.
