Feasibility of Oil-Palm Fronds for Biomass Gasification.

Biomass Gasification means incomplete combustion of biomass resulting in the production of combustible gases consisting of Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrogen (H2), and traces of Methane (CH4). This mixture is called syngas or also known as producer gas. Gasification is a century old technology and was used extensively during World War II due to the shortage of liquid fuel. The technology disappeared soon after World War II when liquid fuel became easily available. Due to the current depletion of fossil fuels, increased energy demand, and environmental concerns, there is a renewed interest in the technology
