ENHANCEMENT OF OIL PALM FRONDS GASIFICATION PROCESS USING PREHEATED INLET AIR

Emissions of greenhouse gases from fossil fuels and an ever growing demand for energy source which is in dissonance with a limited supply of fossil fuels are the current pressing global problems which need sustainable solution. Malaysia has abundant but underutilized oil palm fronds (OPF) which c...
