Effect of hydrothermal treatment on oil palm wood (Elaeis guineensis) in term of decay resistance against white rot fungus (Trametes versicolor) and equilibrium moisture content (EMC) was investigated in the present study. Response surface methodology (RSM) models for treatment temperature, treatmen...
