Abstract
⺠Energy rich hydrochars were synthesized by HTC of palm empty fruit bunches. ⺠Formation of hydrochars relies on a dehydration and decarboxylation process. ⺠Hydrochars were characterized by FE-SEM, FTIR, BET, XRD and TGA-DTG. ⺠Hydrochar presented in this work has unique chemical properties. ⺠Potential applications of hydrochars include fuels, energy sources and adsorbents.
