Acknowledgments A part of this work (3-component torrefaction model) was performed while
Prof. Kalyan Annamalai spent his sabbatical at Energy laboratory, Mechanical Engineering, Mass.
Inst of Technology, Cambridge, Mass. in Fall 2013 and KA gratefully acknowledges Prof.
Ghoneim, MIT for providing facilities and many fruitful discussions.
