Laser pyrolysis, pyrolysis, renewable energy, waste materialAbstract
Application of laser in heating technique of both organic gas-phase and solid particles for thermochemical decomposition at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen is presently a challenging area. Laser pyrolysis is a powerful and a versatile tool for the gas-phase synthesis of nanoparticles. Generally, the purpose of pyrolysis is not only for energy production but also for the production of chemical feedstocks. This paper reviews on the pyrolysis activities, generally in Malaysia and the utilization of laser in pyrolysis for renewable energy and materials application. Malaysia is a well-known for palm oil producer country in the world, generating significant wastes yearly from oil palm mills such as empty fruit brunch (EFB), shell, fiber and palm oil mill effluent (POME) has put the government to solve these wastes problem by doing research on the development of renewable energy and materials. This reviews concluded that there are new area of research for the utilization of waste material by using laser technique.
