Note: In March of 2000, the Biomass Energy Foundation (BEF) made available a second edition publication (click here) of this resource with an appended paper on Energy of Biomass Densification. Unfortunately, the second edition scan copy does not have the same high quality as the Google scan available here for the original, first edition report.
Description
Densified Biomass: A New Form of Solid Fuel — a first edition Solar Energy Research Institute (SERI) publication authored in 1978 by Thomas B. Reed and Becky Bryant — is available here as a 57-page public domain digital copy (scan) from Google. A “state of the art evaluation of densified biomass fuels” with documentation of processes, energy balance, economics and applications. The best (only?) text on theory and practice.
This publication was originally sold by the Biomass Energy Foundation (BEF) for $22.50. Dr TLUD and staff would like to thank Dr. Thomas B. Reed for making this publication available for free distribution.
