The potential of Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) biochar produced from Modification of Gas Burner (MGB) as a soil amendment at different temperature level as compared to Top Lid Updraft (TLUD) and muffle furnace heating / Syed Ahmad Ibrahim Al-Kired S. Hasan
Top-Lid Updraft (TLUD) stove and muffle furnace heating is one of the methods to produce biochar trough slow pyrolysis process. However, there is a limitation involve the TLUD stove and muffle furnace heating which are poorly designed may result in high gas emission and more costing in term of opera...

Top-Lid Updraft (TLUD) stove and muffle furnace heating is one of the methods to produce biochar trough slow pyrolysis process. However, there is a limitation involve the TLUD stove and muffle furnace heating which are poorly designed may result in high gas emission and more costing in term of operation and maintenance respectively. The new method of slow pyrolysis to produce biochar which is “Modification of Gas Burner (MGB)” has innovated to overcome the problem. The purposes of this study were to investigate the physco-chemical properties of Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) biochar produce from MGB at three different temperatures and to compare their properties with TLUD stove and muffle furnace heating.
