The effect of temperature on the electrical efficiency of palm kernel shell (PKS) is a critical area of study, particularly in the context of renewable energy technologies. PKS, a byproduct of the oil palm industry, has potential as a solid fuel. Understanding how temperature influences its properties can help optimize its use for energy production.
Increasing the temperature during the processing of palm kernel shell generally improves its carbon content and heating value, while reducing its mass and energy yield. Higher temperatures also enhance conversion efficiency and non-condensable gas yield in fast pyrolysis, with an optimal liquid/tar product yield observed at 500°C. These findings suggest that temperature plays a crucial role in optimizing the electrical efficiency of PKS as a renewable energy source.
