Abstract

Empty fruit bunch (EFB) has a high potential to be utilized as energy source. This study investigated the effects of the hydrothermal treatment and pelletizing temperature on the physical properties of the EFB pellets. EFB was hydrothermally treated using 10 m3 batch-type reactor and water washed using a centrifugal machine. Single pellet making device was used for pelletization of both treated and untreated EFB. The pellets were densified at a pressure of 60 MPa and a temperature of 100, 150 and 200 °C by using a single pelletizer.
