2nd International Conference On Palm Oil Biomass (ICOPB )
Organized by
Asif International (M) Sdn Bhd and Associated Companies
(SBL Claimable for Malaysian Companies Contributing to HRDF)
The Oil Palm Biomass has emerged as a viable asset for the palm oil industry. Many years of R&D have made it possible to convert the oil palm biomass into economic products including MDF, Timber Board, Fertiliser and Paper, just to name a few. Lately, new technologies have been developed to generate biofuel and electricity from oil palm biomass. There are already commercial ventures which have exploited the oil palm biomass for business.
INTRODUCTION
The first ICOPB 2008 was successfully organized in August 2008 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with over 280 delegates from 17 countries. The conference was officially opened by Honorable Senator A. Kohilan Pillay, Deputy Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities of Malaysia.
This 2nd International Conference on Oil Palm Biomass (ICOPB 2010) will be held at the MATRADE Exhibition and Convention Centre in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. (It has been moved from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur due to the current political problems in Thailand)
ICOPB 2010 will feature the experience of such business ventures as well as table the latest findings on further improvement to the available technologies. In addition a keynote address on the business prospects of renewable materials will be a major attraction of the conference.
