Know Palm Kernel Shells in Palm Cultivation and Palm Oil Industry
Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) is the hard outer shell of palm kernel fruit, which is left behind as a byproduct after palm oil extraction. It is a fibrous, brownish-yellow material with particle sizes typically ranging from 5 mm to 40 mm. Each year, the palm oil industry generates over 5 million tons of PKS. Utilizing a palm kernel shell biochar machine allows you to profit from the attractive palm kernel shell charcoal price. Now learn about this material.
Major Producing Regions

The primary producers of PKS are countries where oil palm is a major economic crop. According to public data, the top PKS-producing regions include:Indonesia、Malaysia 、Thailand and etc.
Characteristics of Palm Shells
Palm kernel shells offer unique characteristics that make them ideal for charcoal production.
- High calorific value (around 4000 Kcal/kg)
- Low moisture content
- Easy crushing
- Low ash content
- Renewable, easy available and low cost
Palm Byproducts for Carbonization
In addition to PKS, some other palm byproducts be processed through carbonization

- Palm fiber;
- Empty fruit bunches (EFB);
- Palm dregs;
- Palm branches and leaves;
- etc.
How to Use Palm Kernel Shell Charcoal Making Machine?
A complete palm kernel shell charcoal machine usually includes a material pretreatment line, a biomass carbonization part, and a charcoal briquette machine. This integrated system effectively transforms palm waste into valuable charcoal, optimizing the process for both efficiency and sustainability. See its working process.

Features of Palm Kernel Shell Charcoal Machine


Equipped with Alarm Device
The PLC electric cabinet has an alarm device, and there will be an alarm display and an alarm for some electrical failures.

With Explosion-proof Water Seal
There is an explosion-proof water seal at the combustible pipeline (to prevent abnormal pressure of combustible gas in the equipment)

Variable Frequency Fan Guide
The direction of the gas in all pipelines is led by the fan (the fan is variable frequency), and it will be displayed on the PLC when the pipeline is blocked.
High Heat Efficiency
The material is not in contact with the flue gas and is not polluted by hot air.
Good Energy-saving Effect
The heat utilization rate of this equipment is higher, the use of air heat ex-changer can effectively improve the thermal efficiency by 5-10%, and the energy saving effect is good.
