Production of zeolites from oil palm ash

In this research, the ability of oil palm ash to produces value added product such as zeolites is studied. Characterization of oil palm ash from one of the palm oil plantation in Malaysia has been carried out and used for the production of zeolites. The production of zeolites from oil palm ash appea...
