Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOil Palm Biomass As Potential Substitution Raw Materials For Commercial Biomass Briquettes ProductionA.B. Nasrin, A.N. Ma, Y.M. Choo et al.Palm oil industry generates vast amount of palm biomass. Converting palm biomass into a uniform and solid fuel through briquetting process appears to be an attractive solution in upgrading its properties and add value. In this study, raw materials including empty fruit bunch (EFB), in powder and fibre forms, palm kernel expeller (PKE) and sawdust were densified into briquettes at … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 9,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleProduction of Cellulase from Oil Palm Biomass as Substrate by Solid State BioconversionMd. Z. Alam, Nurdina Muhammad, Mohd E. MahmatSolid state bioconversion (SSB) of lignocellulosic material oil palm biomass (OPB) generated from palm oil industries as waste was conducted by evaluating the enzyme production through filamentous fungus in lab-scale experiment. OPB in the form of empty fruit bunches (EFB) was used as the solid substrate and treated with the fungus Trichoderma harzianum to produce cellulase. The results presented in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2005 · 7,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINFLUENCE OF REACTION TEMPERATURE AND REACTION TIME ON PRODUCT FROM HYDROTHERMAL TREATMENT OF BIOMASS RESIDUEJakaphong Kongpanya, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat TeekasapThailand is facing with problems associated with biomass residue such as palm oil residues (oil palm trunks, oil palm fronds, empty fruit bunches, shells and fibers). Biomass is promising source for the production of an array of energy-related produts including, liquid, solid and gaseous fuels, heat, chemicals electricity and other materials. Therefore, the use of biomass for energy is not … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 2 Jun 2014 · 7,681 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduction of Palm Oil with Methane Avoidance at Palm Oil Mill: A Case Study of Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle AssessmentChiew Wei Puah, Yuen May Choo, Soon Hock OngThe study discusses a case study of cradle to gate life cycle assessment for the production of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) with methane avoidance at palm oil mill. The improved milling process enables total utilization of the oil palm fruit to produce alow oil palm based food source. The minimal modification in the mill includes cleaning of Fresh Fruit Bunches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 9 Sep 2013 · 7,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPalm Oil Milling Wastes and Sustainable DevelopmentA.C. Er, Abd. Rahim Md. Nor, Katiman RostamProblem statement: Palm oil milling generates solid wastes, effluent and gaseous emissions. The aim of this study is to assess the progress made in waste management by the Malaysian palm oil milling sector towards the path of sustainable development. Sustainable development is defined as the utilization of renewable resources in harmony with ecological systems. Inclusive in this definition is the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEnvironmental Performance of the Milling Process Of Malaysian Palm Oil Using The Life Cycle Assessment ApproachVijaya Subramaniam, Ma An Ngan, Choo Yuen May, Nik Meriam Nik SulaimanMalaysia is currently the world leader in the production and export of palm oil. This study has a gate to gate system boundary. The inventory data collection starts at the oil palm fresh fruit bunch hoppers when the fresh fruit bunch is received at the mill up till the production of the crude palm oil in the storage tanks at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLong-Term Changes in Mangrove Landscape of the Niger River Delta, NigeriaPing Wang, Aroloye O. Numbere, Gerardo R. CamiloThe Niger Delta mangrove is the third largest in the world and the largest in Africa. Since the 1960s oil and gas exploration has become an important economic activity, resulting in significant alteration of the landscape via pollution, urbanization and invasion. Landsat images of six different years (1984, 1986, 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2007) were used to determine land cover … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Jun 2016 · 8,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,677 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPREPARATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL BY CHEMICAL ACTIVATION WITH Na2CO3 AND ZnCl2 AS IMPRENATED AGENTS FOR H2S ADSORPTIONKanokorn HussaroHydrogen Sulfide (H2S, rotten-egg) is one of the major environmental pollutants having its sources in natural and anthropogenic activities. It’s had smell gas produced by anaerobic digestion in acid condition from organic and inorganic compounds containing sulphur, presents dual problems of its toxicity and foul ordour. One of methods of its removal is adsorption. Activated carbon is a widely used … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2014 · 8,485 accessesView PDFCite
