The Mixture Of Bio-Oil And Biochar Produced From Slow Pyrolysis Of Oil Palm Wastes For Briquettes Production And Combustion As Solid Fuels

Malaysia generates an enormous amount of agricultural wastes, especially from the oil palm wastes industries. These wastes will continue to bring about the agricultural wastes disposal problem in Malaysia until necessary measures are taken to upgrade their applications. The primary aim of this study...
