FutureMetrics Has Published a New Important Multi-Client Research Report


Advanced Biomass Solutions for Coal Substitution in Power Generation


Optimizing carbon-beneficial coal replacement for power generation when white pellets are not optimal

This 90-page study contains a comprehensive technical and economic analysis of "black" pellet technologies.


The table of contents is HERE.


As FutureMetrics has noted in a recent white paper HERE, for some utility-scale pulverized coal (PC) power stations, black pellets may be the optimal choice for replacing coal with carbon-beneficial solid fuel.


This highly detailed analysis looks at the pros and cons of four mainstream black pellet production processes. Two are via torrefaction and two are via steam treatment (also known as steam explosion). 

The research paper is available now on the

FutureMetrics website

under the tab labeled

"Research Studies for Purchase".
