Other Products from Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) Than Just Biomass Resource

07/28/2016 4:08 AM

Anybody has done some research/development about the use of Palm Kernel Shell (PKS)? rather than just used for biomass resource of course.

Is it possible to use for reinforcement on rubber products? such as rubber fenders or rubber walls? just some ideas

Try it. Somebody might like it, unless it's too scratchy.

It has been used as aggregate in concrete, and, the ash has been used as a part substitution for cement.

Do a google search for "palm kernel shell as a structural additive".
