Abstract Malaysia’s population has rapidly developed every year, with considerable waste were produced. It caused a severe effect on the surroundings and reduced quality of water surface bodies. Thus, significant improvement been implemented to increase wastewater effluent combat environmental issues. This research evaluates activated carbon performance from rice husk coconut reduce pollutants ...

In this work, after carbonization of two biomass wastes, rice husk and coconut husk, they were modified by hydrothermally synthesized cryptomelane manganese prepared into a solar interfacial evaporation system to explore their performance stabilization cadmium. The results demonstrate that the cryptomelane-modified biochar can obtain an rate 1.247 kg m−2 h−1 photothermal conversion efficiency 8...

This study was conducted to evaluate the properties of cement bonded particleboard made from rice husk and sawdust. Sawdust and rice husk fine boards were made using two ratios of cement and particles of 70:30 and 80:20, but rice husk coarse was made with a ratio of cement and particle of 80:20. The density of sawdust and rice husk fine boards in a ratio of cement and particles of 70:30 was 960...

Combustion characteristics of rice husk and coconut shell briquettes have been investigated with a view establishing its suitability as an energy source. The were collected carbonized in furnace charcoal (RHC) (CSC). These further down sized sieved to 2.5 mm particle size. RHC CSC mixed proportions 50:45, 60:35, 70:25, 80:15, 90:5% by weight respectively, 5% cassava starch used binder for all t...
