Modelling carbon footprint, emission, and sequestration of kenaf cultivation and fiber processing and utilization into automotive components

This study aimed to model carbon footprint, dioxide sequestration, and emissions from kenaf cultivation as well utilization of core bast biomaterials in the automotive industries their environmental implications. It also considers selection suitable processing methods improve performance parts. The data were obtained three areas, each area was divided into cultivated sub areas for footprint model. Data regarding conversion fibre when using high decorticator machines provided Kenaf Processing Marketing Centre (CMPC) Malaysia. results showed that total estimated quantity studied farms about 0.750 tonne CO2/tonne. In addition, sequestration components states district approximately 180,000 CO2/tonne/hectare/year addition sequestered by soil hectare kenaf. practices cultivation, processing, is essential environment will assist mitigation climate change risks.
