Palm Kernel Shell

الوصف

Palm Kernel Shells (PKS) are the shell fractions left after the nut has been removed after crushing in the palm oil mill.
Palm Kernel Shells are a fibrous material and can be easily handled in bulk directly from the product line to the end
use.
Moisture content in PKS is low compared to other biomass residues with different sources suggesting values between *5% - *0%.
Palm Kernel Shells contain residues of palm oil, which accounts for its slightly higher heating value compared with other lignocelluloses biomass.
Compared to other residues from the industry, it is a good quality biomass fuel with uniform size distribution, easy handling, easy crushing, and limited biological activity due to low moisture content.
