Fast pyrolysis of empty fruit bunch and palm kernel shell for production of bio-oil using auger reactor / Nurul Suhada Ab Rasid

Ab Rasid, Nurul Suhada (2017) Fast pyrolysis of empty fruit bunch and palm kernel shell for production of bio-oil using auger reactor / Nurul Suhada Ab Rasid. PhD thesis, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM).

Abstract

Pyrolysis has received a lot of interest as it can convert biomass into gas, liquid (biooil) and solid products. Bio-oil can be utilized as a feedstock for various chemicals as well as fuels production, and heat and power generations. The purpose of this research is to optimize the process conditions for bio-oil production from oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) and palm kernel shell (PKS) in an auger reactor and to elucidate the detailed characteristics of bio-oil.
