Production of solid fuel from oil palm biomass via microwave irradiation pyrolysis technique for co- combustion with coal / Siti Shawalliah Idris

Co-utilisation of coal and biomass deem to be one of the alternatives to reduce climate changes due to global warming. Despite rapid development in this area, no work has been reported on co-firing of coal-biomass char blend derived from oil palm waste. Nevertheless, much research has shown that, la...
