Briquetting of palm fibre and shell from the processing of palm nuts to palm oil

Biomass and Bioenergy, 2002
Abstract Malaysia is the major producer of palm oil in the world. It produces 8.5 million tonnes per year ( 8.5×10 6 t y −1 ) of palm oil from 38.6×10 6 t y −1 of fresh fruit bunches. Palm oil production generates large amounts of process residues such as fibre ( 5.4×10 6 t y −1 ), shell (

Kinetic studies of copper ion adsorption on palm kernel fibre

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2006
Palm kernel fibre is a common agricultural waste in West Africa and its use as an adsorbent for the removal of copper ions from aqueous solution has been studied. Batch kinetics studies were carried out based on the assumption of the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which was developed to predict the rate constant of adsorption, the equilibrium ...

Composting of palm press fibre

Biological Wastes, 1989
Abstract The effects of composting palm press fibre alone, palm press fibre supplemented with poultry layer deep-litter and urea, and palm press fibre supplemented with poultry broiler floor-litter and urea were studied. The initial C:N ratios of the three mixtures were 40:1, 33:1 and 26:1, respectively.

Mechanical properties of date palm fibres and concrete reinforced with date palm fibres in hot-dry climate

Cement and Concrete Composites, 2005
Abstract The study examines four types of date palm surface fibres and determines their mechanical and physical properties. In addition, the properties of date palm fibre-reinforced concrete, such as strength, continuity index, toughness and microstructure, are given as a function of curing in water and in a hot-dry climate.

Production of cellulolytic enzymes from fungi and use in the saccharification of palm cake and palm fibre

World Journal of Microbiology & Biotechnology, 1992
Aspergillus niger ATCC 6275 possesses the highest carboxymethyl-cellulase, xylanase and β-glucosidase activities under liquid and solid cultivations compared withMyceliophthora thermophila IFO 31843 and an isolate, F11. Palm cake proved to be a better substrate for enzyme production and saccharification than palm fibre.
