Abstract
Palm kernel shell biomass from five different oil palm mills were measured for general characteristics (ultimate, proximate and compositional analysis). The palm kernel shell with the pre-eminent result was used as a raw material to carry out pyrolysis at different temperature ranges (419oC, 429oC, 439oC and 529oC). The relationship between the temperature, yields and chemical composition were analysed. The pyroligneous acid with the highest yield was further analysed for physiochemical properties from the aqueous fraction extracted after storing for a month. The pyrolytic product was recommended for further studies.
