DEVELOPMENT OF THERMAL INSULATION BY UTILIZNG EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH (EFB)

Thermal insulation has been developed to prevent the heat loss in order to maintain the current temperature and pressure. The purpose of insulation is to reduce the heat losses and increase the efficiency. The experiment was conducted to study a potential of utilizing empty fruit bunch (EFB) as a th...
