Processing and Characterization of Activated Carbon from Coconut Shell and Palm Kernel Shell Waste by H3PO4 Activation [PDF]

, 2021
Palm kernel shell and coconut shell are used as a precursor for the production of activated carbon, a way of mitigating the tons of waste produced in Ghana. The raw Palm kernel shell and coconut shell were activated chemically using H3PO4.

Downdraft gasification of raw and torrefied palm kernel shell

2017 3rd International Conference on Power Generation Systems and Renewable Energy Technologies (PGSRET), 2017
Downdraft gasification is a potential method to produce biomass-based power suited for small-scaled power generation application. In the present study, a downdraft gasifier is used to gasify both raw and torrefied palm kernel shell (PKS). The properties of the palm kernel shells were characterised prior to gasification.

Effect of feeding less shell, extruded and enzymatically treated palm kernel cake on expression of growth-related genes in broiler chickens

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2019
Palm kernel cake (PKC) is a residue of palm kernel after oil extraction and can be used as a by-product feedstuff for livestock. In the current study, various post-treated PKC fed to broiler chickens and their growth performance and expression of genes ...
