Abstract
The poster investigates the mechanical properties (Particle and bulk densities, compressive strength, bending strength, and the angle of repose) of a variety of torrefied and non-torrefied biomass pellets and shows the relationship between different properties. Moreover, a novel and quick method to determine the particle size distribution of cylindrical pellets based on image processing is introduced.
