  • Bridgeman et al. (2008) observed energy yields of 77%, 78% and 86% for wheat straw (7.7% lignin), reed canary grass (7.6% lignin), and willow (20% lignin), respectively, after torrefaction at 270 °C for 30 minutes.

    “For instance, Bridgeman et al. (2008) observed the energy yields of 77%, 78% and 86% for wheat straw (7.7% lignin), reed canary grass (7.6% lignin), and willow (20% lignin), respectively after they are torrefied at 270 °C for 30 minutes.”

    From A Comprehensive Review on Biomass Torrefaction (2014) · cites this paper as Bridgeman et al. (2008)

  • Willow with 20% initial lignin content attained an energy density enhancement factor of 1.196 compared with 1.095 for reed canary grass and 1.118 for wheat straw.

    “The willow with 20% initial lignin content attained the energy density enhancement factor of 1.196 compared to 1.095 by reed canary grass and 1.118 by wheat straw.”

    From A Comprehensive Review on Biomass Torrefaction (2014) · cites this paper as Bridgeman et al. (2008)

  • Willow, with the least hemicellulose content of 14% compared with 30% for reed canary grass and 31% for wheat straw, shows the highest solid product yield.

    “For instance, the willow, which has the least hemicellulose content of 14% compared to 30% with that of reed canary grass and 31% with that of wheat straw, shows the highest solid product yield (Bridgeman et al., 2008).”

    From A Comprehensive Review on Biomass Torrefaction (2014) · cites this paper as Bridgeman et al., 2008

  • Torrefied biomass is thermally more stable than raw biomass and produces a higher heat of reactions during combustion.

    “The Torrefied biomass is thermally more stable than the raw biomass, and it produces a higher heat of reactions during the combustion (Bridgeman et al., 2008).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
