Energetic potential of palm waste: Empty fruit bunch
Abstract
Palm waste is generated in the oasis and poorly valued by burning in random way. This waste can be recovered in many methods according to their physicochemical characterization. The organic values of EFB could allow us to use anaerobic digestion (AD). The elementary compositions are used to estimate the heating value for thermochemical conversion (TC). The study aim is to explore the energetic potential (Ep) of EFB using the AD and TC. The Ep results are 10.87 and 39.1 GWh/y, respectively.
