The Effectiveness Of Torrefied Coconut Husk Using Conventional Heating

The volume of coconut waste created monthly led to the selection of biomass as a renewable energy source in this study. The goal of this research is to determine the best torrefaction process value for torrefied biochar made from coconut husk (CH) in order to produce biomass energy utilising the tra...

The three independent variables of particle size (100, 500, and 750m), holding temperature (200, 240, and 280°C), and residence duration were used to torrefy the coconut husk (20, 40 and 60 minutes).
