Modelling carbon footprint, emission, and sequestration of kenaf cultivation and fiber processing and utilization into automotive components

This study aimed to model carbon footprint, carbon dioxide sequestration, and emissions from kenaf cultivation as well as utilization of core and bast as biomaterials in the automotive industries and their environmental implications. It also considers the selection of suitable processing methods to...
