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...

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.

Furfural is a colourless oily liquid with the odour of almonds chemical that produced from hemicelluloses. It is an organic heterocyclic aldehyde compound that stable at room temperature. Hemicelluloses can be found from agricultural waste such as palm empty fruit bunch (PEFB), corncobs and etc. PEFB is an abundant by product of palm oil industry that contains lignocelluloses biomass which composed of hemicelluloses, cellulose, and lignin.
