• As a major producer of palm oil, we also produced an enormous amount of palm oil waste such as empty fruit bunches (EFB).
• Creating pellet/briquette as an alternative fuel, helps to make our environment friendlier.

• High energy content
• High density
• Spare fuel
• Easy to handle

• Steam generation for industries
• District/home heating
• Electricity generation
• Incinerator fuel
• Barbequing
• Camping

• With the decreasing sawdust supply and increasing global interest in renewable fuel, palm biomass is a potential raw material to be used in pellet/briquette production.
• Production cost would depend on the raw material used as the major cost is pre-treatment of the EFB.
• Pelleting/briquetting of palm biomass increases its calorific value, reduces moisture content and makes it easy to handle.

• The EFB is to be treated and processed into pellet/briquette via proven technology
• Nominal capacity ranges from 0.5 tons per day to 800 tons per day.
