The advantages of wet torrefaction of biomass by superheated steam in fluidized bed over conventional hydrothermal carbonization method are confirmed. The effect of wet torrefaction temperature on the chemical composition of biochar obtained from nut (hazelnut) shells by torrefaction in fluidized bed in superheated steam environment, on the fractional composition of biochar, and on the chemical composition of the condensate (a by-product of the process) is investigated.
