Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE HIGH VOLUME REUSE OF HYBRID BIOMASS ASH AS A PRIMARY BINDER IN CEMENTLESS MORTAR BLOCKCheah Chee Ban, Noor Shazea Ahmad Nordin, Part Wei Ken et al.High Calcium Wood Ash (HCWA) and Pulverised Fuel Ash (PFA) are by-products from the wood biomass and coal energy production which are produced in large quantity with combined annual production of 500 million tonnes. This poses a serious problem for disposal of the waste material especially at places where land is scarce. The prescribed study was aimed to examine the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 29 May 2014 · 7,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT FOR OIL PALM BASED PLYWOOD: A GATE-TO-GATE CASE STUDYM. Shamim Ahmad, Vijaya Subramaniam, Halimah Mohammad et al.Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an important tool for identifying potential environmental impacts associated with the production of palm based plywood. This study is to make available the life cycle inventory for gate-to-gate data so that the environmental impact posed by oil palm based plywood production can be assessed. Conducting an LCA on the palm based plywood that are derived … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2014 · 9,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE BLENDING EFFECT OF COALITE, COCONUT SHELL CHARCOAL AND GELAM WOOD CHARCOAL ON CALORIFIC VALUENukman, Riman Sipahutar, Irsyadi Yani, Taufik AriefThe aim of this research is to scrutinize the effect of blend solid fuels consisting of coalite, coconut shell charcoal and gelam wood charcoal on calorific value. Coalite is the solid fuels made from coal that is mined from the earth, while coconuts shell charcoal and gelam wood charcoal are processed from natural plants. Coalite, coconut shell charcoal and gelam … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 3 Mar 2014 · 7,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPYROLYSIS OF EMPTY FRUIT BUNCHES: INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE ON THE YIELDS AND COMPOSITION OF GASEOUS PRODUCTMohamad Azri Sukiran, Loh Soh Kheang, Nasrin Abu Bakar, Choo Yuen MayWith the increasing concern on fossil fuel depletion and environmental problems, the utilization of renewable biomass resources is expected to play an important role in the future. Biomass can be converted into a variety of fuels and chemicals by different processes; one of which is pyrolysis that has been subjected to extensive research in recent years. In this study, pyrolysis … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2014 · 7,621 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Natural Water with Cow Dung and Agricultural Waste Ratio on Biogas Production from Anaerobic Co-DigestionNaponKeanoi, KanokornHussaro, Sombat TeekasapGlobal warming caused by energy generation from fossil fuel has accelerated the deployment of renewable fuels such as biogas. In this study, batch fermentation (5L) was studied to observe the effect of natural water, cow dung, rice straw and water hyacinth ratio on the biogas and methane production at ambient temperature (31°C), 7.1-7.4 of pH for 52 days. The five … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 22 Jan 2014 · 8,513 accessesView PDFCite
