Oil palm biomass residue in Malaysia : availability and sustainability. International Journal of Biomass and Renewables, 2 (1): 2. pp. 13-18. ISSN eISSN 2289-1692 (2013)
Abstract
Oil palm plantations cover over 5 million hectares of land in Malaysia. This large area of plantations generates massive amount of oil palm biomass residue. Plantations and mill plants are the main sites of biomass residue generation. Oil palm biomass residue is classi¬ed into six types as oil palm frond (OPF), oil palm trunk (OPT), empty fruit bunch (EFB), mesocarp ¬bre, palm kernel shell (PKS) and palm oil mill e uent (POME). This report presents the generation rates and amounts of each type of biomass residue during the period of 2008 to 2012.
