Assessment of Porous Carbons Derived from Sustainable Palm Solid Waste for Carbon Dioxide Capture

Potentials of solid agro-wastes from palm processing mills (palm kernel) for producing low cost porous carbons were investigated. The study deals with the use of palm kernel shell based porous carbons as adsorbents for CO2 capture. Carbonization of the palm kernel shell (PKS) was carried out at 700...
