Numerical simulation and experimental validation of microwave torrefaction for empty fruit bunches pellet

This study investigates the microwave heating and torrefaction process of empty fruit bunch (EFB) pellets. Finite element based COMSOL Multiphysics software was used to predict the microwave heating behaviour of EFB pellets during the torrefaction process. The simulated temperature data from multimo...
