Production of Cellulose Nanofiber (Cnf) from Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) via mechanical method

The palm oil production in Malaysia contributes 85.5% of the total biomass production in Malaysia. From the 85.5%, empty fruit bunch (EFB) are the most that contribute to biomass waste produced [1]. With the increasing number of empty fruit bunch (EFB) produced annually, it has raises massive enviro...
