Non-Isothermal Kinetic Analysis of Oil Palm Empty Fruit Bunch Pellets by Thermogravimetric Analysis

The pyrolysis kinetics of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) pellets was examined under non-isothermal conditions in a thermogravimetric (TG) analyser. Thermal analysis was carried out from 30 °C to 1,000 °C using three different heating rates 5, 10, 20 °C min-1 under nitrogen gas (N2). The TG-DTG c...
