Abstract
In Oman, palm wastes are estimated at thousands of tons per year. Imagine that this huge amount of waste can be used as an alternative to energy or as a fuel. This project shows the possibility of obtaining cellulose from waste palm trees to protect Oman from the environmental damage caused by burning these wastes. The result obtained from the first experiment was that 80g of raw material gave about 2.5 – 3g of cellulose. In the second experiment, 3.3g of raw material gave about 1.8 – 1.9g of cellulose, while in the third experiment, 4g of the same raw material of the second experiment gave about 1.5 - 1.6g of cellulose. The final products' FTIR showed the functional groups and compared them with the pure cellulose graph. The biogas was produced at the end of this project by using an anaerobic digester. The total volume of the anaerobic digester has been calculated as 7.2 m3 to do the digestion process.
