Torrefaction is a thermochemical pretreatment that enhances biomass properties, improving energy density, decomposition resistance, and hydrophobicity, making it viable alternative as biofuel. This study performed thermodynamic assessment of the torrefaction process for urban forest waste, integrating experimental data with two-step reaction kinetic modeling to evaluate product yields properties using Aspen Plus software. The was modeled yield reactor, employing Peng–Robinson equation describe vapor-phase behavior empirical correlations predict solid-phase properties. Simulations were validated against temperatures between 225 275 °C, achieving an absolute deviation less than 5%. Energy consumption ranged from 368 kJ·h–1 light 1853 severe torrefaction. Process irreversibility varied 326 (3% exergy destruction) in 3993 (16% research provides robust model scale-up adaptable diverse feedstocks conditions, highlighting its potential optimizing use sustainability utilization.
