<onlyinclude>'''Sizing''' is a mechanical process to change the size of a material to use it in a conversion process. This normally means that a base feedstock with bigger parts is reduced to smaller pieces, which makes the biomass easier to handle and allows it to flow. Sizing includes chipping, extrusion, grinding, and milling as base technologies. <!-- Sizing is a mechanical process that aims to reduce the particle size and crystallinity and increase the specific surface area of biomass to promote the degradation of substrate.

It is a very efficient technique, but a major drawback is the high energy input. (https://www.sciencedirect.com/book/9780128044483/electric-renewable-energy-systems) --></onlyinclude> | ||
