Property enhancement of mustard stalk biomass by Torrefaction: Characterization and optimization of process parameters using response surface methodology

Present work is devoted to the study of independent operating parameters namely torrefaction temperature (TT), residence (torrefaction) time (RT), and heating rate (HR) on the slow pyrolysis or torrefaction of an important agro residue namely mustard stalk (MS). Response surface methodology along wi...
