Abstract
In this paper heating values and ultimate analysis of groundnut shell, coconut shell and palm kernel shell are reported. In addition, the quantity of air required for perfect combustion, volume of products of combustion and the temperature of combustion products have been calculated.
The moisture-free higher calorific values of palm kernel shell, groundnut shell and coconut shell are 25·46, 15·70 and 22·89 MJ/kg respectively.
