Palm kernel shells (PKS) are frequently discarded as they are considered a byproduct of palm oil processing. However, there are numerous, applications for these shells.
Palm kernel shells contain many components beneficial for human use. Their composition includes elements such as ash content, moisture content, fixed carbon (often referred to potential activated carbon). They also possess other constituents valuable for human utilization.
