Lignin Production from Oil Palm Biomass

Malaysia is currently one of the world‟s top producers of oil palm products. The palm oil milling sector in Malaysia generates millions of metric tonne of oil palm waste annually. These include the empty fruit bunches (EFB) generated at the oil mill, the oil palm fronds (OPF) available throughout th...
