Heating Value Evaluation of Palm Oil Waste

The aim of this project is to evaluate the heating value of palm oil waste (POW).It is also concerned with the theory and method for determining heating value.The POW have high moisture contents (MC) which may affect the heating value.Therefore,this study also investigates the relationship between...
