Abstract

A single pass method of production of an improved biocoal product according to which biomass is thermo-chemically broken down into its constituent components, the components are modified, and selected components are recombined to form a much more valuable fuel product which is more waterproof, more durable, and has a higher energy density than the original biomass. Other non-selected components may be used to provide energy to the biocoal production process.
