Main focus is given on residues generate d from industry, as to avoid the food vs energy and competing arable land use issues. Vast amount of biomass is potentially available from palm oil mills, rice mi lls and sawn timber mills, suitable for large scale production of renewable energy. Research areas include solid biofuel production from raw biomass, thermal treatment process for solid biofuel upgrading, biofuel characterization and combustion study, blending / cofiring with coal and thermal gasification.
