• ECONOMICS OF PRODUCING FUEL PELLETS FROM BIOMASS (2006, background): “Superheated steam dryers, flash dryers, spouted bed dryers, and belt dryers are also common in European countries (Stahl et al., 2004; Thek and Obernberger, 2004) but they are not used in North America (to the knowledge of the authors).”
• Factors affecting wood, energy grass and straw pellet durability – A review (2017, background): “, [61] reviewed a number of convection driers commonly used to dry sawdust in Sweden, including those utilising flue gas, air or superheated steam as a drying medium.”
