Abstract
Catalytic biomass gasification is a promising thermochemical conversion pathway for converting palm oil empty fruit bunch (EFB) into hydrogen (H2) as future energy needed to support the global net-zero emission goal in 2050. This study developed a limonite catalyst, a byproduct of nickel mining, to enhance hydrogen-rich bio-syngas production from EFB gasification. The findings demonstrate that limonite has successfully catalyzed the biomass gasification process with an increase in bio-syngas production by 27–30 % volume. At an operating temperature of 700 °C, the use of limonite catalyst and steam as gasifying agent produced 24 L of bio-syngas with H2/CO ratio 15.84, and H2 accounting for the largest share at 63.45 % volume.
