Optimization and Characterization of Adsorbent from Palm Kernel Shell Waste Using H3PO4 Activator

CHEESA, 2023
Palm kernel shell is solid waste produced from the processing of crude palm oil (CPO). In this context, phosphoric acid (H3PO4) serves as an essential activator for producing an adsorbent with maximum micropore under operating conditions at a temperature

Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins?

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 35, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by

SHRINKAGE AND CREEP CHARACTERISTICS OF PALM KERNEL SHELL CONCRETE

Journal of Engineering Studies and Research, 2020
<p>This research work evaluates the shrinkage and creep characteristics of concrete containing Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) as partial replacement of natural coarse aggregate. Concrete was mixed at 0.55 water-cement ratio, mix proportion of 1:1:2 and percentage replacement of natural aggregate with PKS at 0%, 25 % and 50%.

Artificial neural network evaluation of cement-bonded particle board produced from red iron wood (Lophira alata) sawdust and palm kernel shell residues

Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2018
As a way of promoting environmental sustainability, it becomes paramount to salvage the quantity of agricultural wastes being destroyed or disposed into the environment. A novel strategy to reduce these wastes is by reusing them.

Structure Formation in Dairy Cheese and Plant‐Based Cheese Analogues: A Review

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2026.
In this review, structure formation in dairy cheese and plant‐based cheese analogues is analyzed following a multi‐length scale perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on the distinction between bottom‐up assembly, characteristic of natural dairy cheese, and top‐down structuring, typical of processed cheese and cheese analogues.

Appraisal of mechanical properties of different particle sizes of palm kernel shell, coconut shell and mixed palm kernel-coconut shells particles epoxy-filled composites

Sri Lankan Journal of Physics, 2020
This study presents the appraisal of indentation hardness and flexural modulus of composites prepared by mixing particles of palm kernel shell (PKS), coconut shell (CNS) and mixtures of palm kernel-coconut shell (MPKCNS) of different sizes (35.5 μm, 75 μm and 106 μm) with epoxy and hardener for various applications. The Rockwell hardness tester results
