Abstract:

Oil palm fiber (OPF) derived biochar was feasible to be used as an adsorbent in removing pollutants from wastewater, especially ammonia. OPF had shown a significant performance in the removal of ammonia from aquaculture wastewater which is comparable to other studies and commercially available biochars. This study focuses on developing a process flow diagram for an up-scale production of OPF biochar and the economic analysis of the production plant. The process flow diagram includes the transportation, shredding, carbonization, sieving, cooling, and final storage of OPF biochar. Estimated cost

Oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB), mesocarp fiber (MF), palm kernel shell (PKS), oil palm trunk (OPT) and oil palm frond (OPF) are the common solid lignocellulosic biomass generated from oil palm industries. A palm oil plantation was estimated to generate 36.5 ton of dry biomass in each hectare every year which suggesting the abundancy of these wastes. Feedstock feasibility and common properties as a carbon-rich material, have initiated an interest to utilize these biomass for biochar production.

Abstract:

The world is seriously searching for an alternative to fossil fuels due to their tremendous environmental effect. However, renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydropower, and biomass were anticipated to be alternative energies. In this study, the amount of heat generated from the combustion of coal and charcoal briquettes derived from oil palm biomass was investigated and compared. Charcoal briquettes were made from the biochar obtained after the pyrolysis of empty fruit bunches (EFB) and mesocarp fibre (MF). Coal and charcoal briquettes were subjected to combustion via thermogravime

Abstract:

AbstractThis study addresses the development of environmentally friendly biocomposites using Opuntia cladode fiber and palm flower biochar for industrial applications. Derived sustainably, these materials significantly enhance mechanical properties, exemplified by Composite C3 (Resin 57wt.%, Fiber 40 wt%, Biochar 3 wt%) with notable flexural strength (217 MPa), tensile strength (178 MPa), impact strength (7.2 J), and hardness (92 Shore-D). However, a 5% biochar concentration led to a slight property decline. Thermal conductivity increased proportionally with biochar concentration, ranging from

Abstract:

Microwave heating technique is one of the most attractive alternative applications in the thermal conversion process. In addition, microwave pyrolysis is one of the thermochemical technologies using microwave irradiation heating in order to obtain biofuels and materials from biomass. Microwave pyrolysis not only overcomes the disadvantages of conventional pyrolysis methods such as slow heating, but also improves the quality of final pyrolysis products. Recently, the biomass from oil palm wastes (empty fruit bunch, oil palm shell and oil palm fiber) has been gaining more attention in order to p

The inclusion of bioaugmented low-cost biochar in current wastewater treatment technologies is a promising way to enhance the removal and degradation of emerging contaminants. In this paper, the properties of two wood waste biochars (wood waste mix - AB, and date palm fiber wood - PDF), and coffee bean husks (COF), produced at four temperatures (350, 450, 500, 550°C) were compared, and investigated in the presence of Geobacter sulfurreducens or a mixed freshwater stream bacterial culture to understand their potential for the adsorption and biotransformation of two types of pesticides (thiaclop

Abstract:

Abstract Recently, minimizing petroleum resources as well as safely disposing of agro-wastes are essential for the production process to comply with environmental legislation. Bio-filler as an alternative to non-safety carbon black (CB) from petroleum resources in the production of rubber composites is investigated by many researchers, but unfortunately it leads to deterioration of the properties of rubber composites. To avoid this drawback, different agro-wastes (rice straw, date palm fiber, and reed (Arundo donax L.) with different chemical constituents as precursors of biofillers (biochars)

AbstractCarbonaceous adsorbents were synthesized from palm kernel shell and palm mesocarp fiber for the adsorption of phenanthrene (PHE) and the highly carcinogenic-benzo(a)pyrene (BaP). The structure and properties of the activated biochar were characterized using standardized analytical tools. The microscopic examinations carried out with SEM and BET results revealed mesoporous structures and interstitial spaces in the activated samples (AB-PKS and AB-PMS). Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) results showed that prepared sorbents are amorphous and that activation affected the amorphous cellulose

Abstract:

The objective of this research work is to investigate the effect of torrefaction on the pyrolysis product. Biomass materials such as empty fruit bunch (EFB), mesocarp fibre (MF) and palm shell (PKS) were torrefied and pyrolyzed. The experiment conditions were set to be respectively at 220 o C of temperature, 10 o C/min of heating rate and 30 minutes holding time for torrefaction and at 650 oC of temperature, 20 o C/min heating rate and 2 hours holding time for pyrolysis. Nitrogen flow rate of 2L/min was maintained for both experiments. The torrefied biomass contains high carbon content and low

Abstract:

AbstractAdsorbents produced from the reuse of pressed palm fibres, a residue derived from the palm oil extraction process, are an alternative to commercial adsorbents for the removal of β‐carotene from crude palm oil. Two adsorbents produced by the pyrolysis of pressed palm fibres were analyzed, where one was chemically activated with phosphoric acid and the other was not activated. Under the conditions studied, biochar activated with phosphoric acid presented an adsorption capacity of 2.99 mg g−1 and 86% β‐carotene removal. The results of kinetic tests indicated that the pseudo‐second order (
