Abstract:
The invention provides for torrefaction apparatus which includes a drum (14) having a biomass inlet (18) and a torrefied material outlet (20), furnace means (16) external of the drum (14) for heating the drum (14) so that torrefaction temperature is achieved in the drum, and a gas inlet conduit (42) leading to the drum (14) from a source of inert gas, thereby to create an torrefaction atmosphere in the drum (14).
