Coconut shells are wastes from the production of coconut milk, desiccated coconut, dried coconut and coconut oil. Coconut shells have been used to make charcoal, activated carbon and handicrafts. In recent years, coconut shells become a popular biomass resource for renewable energy to substitute fossil fuel through pelletizing. Pelletizing makes coconut shells be in uniform size and shape, high bulk density, low moisture content and high heating efficiency.
