Dear Jim:
Good question. I believe that you will release at 270 C about 5-10%
volatiles and that you should plan to burn them for energy and not let them
condense.
However, I am sure that there are sojme real experts out there if you can
find them.
Good luck, TOM REED

Tom Reed you indicated interest in Torrefied Wood, perhaps you and others
can help me with this:
If we torrefy wood at ~ 270 degrees C. (by Airless Drying using superheated
steam at atmospheric pressure) typically, what volatile compounds will be
released, over what temperature ranges; in particular combustible gases that
could be used as fuel for the AD's indirect heater ?
Thank you,
