Valorisation of oil palm wastes into high yield and energy content biochars via slow pyrolysis: Multivariate process optimisation and combustion kinetic studies

Palm kernel shell (PKS) and empty fruit bunch (EFB) are agricultural wastes discharged in significant quantities by the Malaysia palm oil industry. In this work, valorisation of these wastes via slow pyrolysis were experimentally and statistically investigated to synthesise biochars. The interactive...
