INVESTIGATION OF DOWNDRAFT CO-GASIFICATION OF PALM KERNEL SHELL AND POLYSTYRENE WITH AIR AS THE GASIFYING AGENT FOR PRODUCTION OF SYNTHESIS GAS

Palm kernel shell (PKS) and polystyrene is a promising combination of feedstock for co-gasification. PKS has high energy content, while the use of polystyrene as a co-feedstock can reduce polystyrene waste held in landfills. However, there were no previous study on the performance and characteristic...
