I want to use methane as a starting precursor for graphene growth. At the same time, waste palm oil is utilized as a starting source for the formation of methane.
Malaysia, a tropical palm tree growing country, generates millions of tons of waste palm biomass from its numereous palm oil mills.The Palm Oil Mill Effulent (POME),like municiple waste also produces CH4 which is used as a source for electrical/ thermal energy. Depending upon the concentrations of CH4 in the POME samples, the details of the methods applied are given in:
