Furfural separation from palm empty fruit bunch (pefb) using solid waste catalyst (SWC)

Oil-derived chemicals is been used to produce nylon, spandex, and other products. However, it seems that in the near future time, we would exchange the used of oil-derived chemicals into the furfural as before. This is due to oil-derived chemical is a non-renewable sources while we can found furfura...
