SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF OXIDE SUPPORTED MONOMETALLIC Fe AND Cu CATALYSTS FOR STEAM GASIFICATION OF PKS TO HYDROGEN

Biohydrogen is a renewable source of clean fuel and energy which can be derived from biomass. One of the suitable candidate as a source of biomass is palm kernel shell (PKS). An effective approach to produce hydrogen rich gas is via catalytic gasification as the catalyst may promote high content...
