Tests were carried out using air as the gasification agent in a laboratory-scale entrained flow gasifier at atmospheric pressure and temperature between 700 and 900 °C, and equivalence ratio (ER) from 0.2 to 0.4 for both oil palm frond (OPF) and Koompassia malaccensis (Kempas), which are biomass was...
