Upgrading of refuse derived fuel through torrefaction and carbonization: evaluation of RDF char fuel properties

Refuse derived fuel (RDF) is produced in large amounts but its heterogeneous nature and low calorific value reduce the potential for energetic valorization of this material. In this work, the torrefaction and carbonization of RDF was studied in a temperature range of 200–400 °C and residence times f...
