A method for providing raw material for an industrial process, in particular for steel production, the method including torrefying a torrefaction material, which contains biomass, in a reactor by thermochemically treating the torrefaction material at 200° C. to 600° C., to obtain bio coal, extracting the bio coal from the reactor at a first temperature of up to 600° C., providing bulk materials at a second temperature between 0° C. and 100° C., mixing bio coal with bulk material, thereby cooling down the bio coal with the bulk material and obtaining a mixture of bulk material and bio coal at a third temperature, below the self-ignition temperature of the mixture, and using the mixture to provide the raw material for the industrial process.
