Zakaria et al. (2023): Production of biochar and activated carbon from oil palm biomass: Current status, prospects, and challenges
Mohd Rafein Zakaria, Mohammad Abdillah Ahmad Farid, Yoshito Andou, Irmawati Ramli, Mohd Ali Hassan IN: Industrial Crops and Products 199, 116767, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.indcrop.2023.116767
Given the lack of a precise technical definition for carbon materials and methods available, studies of biochar and activated carbon (AC) are progressively colliding with one another. Therefore, based on their respective backgrounds and methods of synthesis, their differences are outlined in this report. The present review highlights recent progress and development of biochar and AC from oil palm biomass by looking at the technical aspects of product generation and potential applications.
