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.

Sustainable Alternative Ceiling Boards using Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) and Balanite Shell (BS) [PDF]

Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2021
Abstract This paper presents an experimental study to investigate the sustainable alternativeceiling boards using Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) and Balanite Shell (BS). The ceiling boards were prepared by mixing (BS/binder, PKS/binder and PKS/BS/binder) at different ratios of (20/80, 40/60, 60/40 and 80/20) and represented as samples (A1, A2, A3 and ...
