Palm Kernel Shell (PKS)

Palm Kernel Shell (PKS)

Description:

We offer premium-grade Palm Kernel Shell (PKS), a high-density by-product of palm oil processing, derived from the hard shell of the palm kernel seed (Elaeis guineensis). Our PKS is clean, dry, and energy-rich, making it ideal for use as a biomass fuel, industrial energy source, and raw material in biochar or carbonized briquettes.

Sourced from sustainable palm oil mills in Nigeria, our shells are naturally sun-dried and free from chemical treatments. They are well-suited for power generation, cement kilns, boilers, and furnaces, and can also be used as organic mulch or filler in manufacturing.
