Abstract: Abstract Pipeline transport of biomass is an economically viable and technically feasible approach to replace conventional truck delivery approach and make the biomass-based energy industry more competitive with fossil fuel-based plants. A 25 m long and 50 mm diameter closed-circuit pipeline facility was fabricated to experimentally investigate the mechanical and chemical feasibility of transporting agricultural residue biomass-water mixtures (slurries) through pipelines. This research used the pipeline facility to study the loss of sugars (glu...
