Kinetics Modeling of Pyrolysis and Steam Gasification of Palm Kernel Shell with Tar Formation for Hydrogen Production

With the tight environmental emission standards in place and the inevitable depletion of fossil fuels, hydrogen energy economy is a promising future alternative. This study aims to investigate the process of producing hydrogen rich gas through steam gasification of palm kernel shell. A mathematical...
