“…The generation of palm oil ash (POA) and boiler ash (BA) in Malaysia were estimated to be over 4 million tons per year [2]. The generated waste could lead to health-related issues, environmental problems, and also financial loss [3][4][5]. Although there are some studies on the utilization of POA such as a partial replacement of cement in concrete [6], as an adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal from aqueous solution [7], flue gas desulphurization [8], and recently as a nano-structured material in polymer [9], most of the ash is still disposed of in landfill that requires a lot of land area.…”

The interest in the utilization of palm oil ash is high, mainly due to their renewable material, opportunity to enhance the properties and possibility to use in a wide range of applications. Palm oil ash is the by-product of the palm oil mill boilers and locally available in the form of micro-size particles. In this research, optimization of the milling process was designed using the Taguchi method to find the most influencing parameters for the preparation of palm oil ash (POA) nanoparticles using a ball milling technique. The experiment was applied using a L9 orthogonal array and signal to noise ratio to investigate the performance of parameters, which are milling time, milling speed, and balls size. The results from signal to noise ratio reveal that to produce POA nanoparticles in optimum parameters, the size of balls shows the highest significant effect on the production of POA nanoparticles, followed by milling time and speed. The results of the parameters optimization experiment were validated by a confirmation test of milling machine operations.

“…POFA has very good potential for improving concrete’s properties due to its chemical composition, such as calcium and silicon oxides present inside [18]. Thus, POFA is proven to be the emerging waste material for improving the durability of concrete, owing to the formation of secondary calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel through a pozzolanic reaction, which is caused by silica [19].…”

“…Therefore, this study tried to use POFA as a supplementary cementitious material for concrete. Islam et al found that using 30% mPOFA exhibited better performance, but once the amount increased, it showed detrimental effects to the concrete [18]. Furthermore, it was found that using a little amount of nPOFA can replace a huge amount of mPOFA [30].…”

The carbonation rate of reinforced concrete is influenced by three parameters, namely temperature, relative humidity, and concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the surroundings. As knowledge of the service lifespan of reinforced concrete is crucial in terms of corrosion, the carbonation process is important to study, and high-performance durable reinforced concretes can be produced to prolong the effects of corrosion. To examine carbonation resistance, accelerated carbonation testing was conducted in accordance with the standards of BS 1881-210:2013. In this study, 10–30% of micro palm oil fuel ash (mPOFA) and 0.5–1.5% of nano-POFA (nPOFA) were incorporated into concrete mixtures to determine the optimum amount for achieving the highest carbonation resistance after 28 days water curing and accelerated CO2 conditions up to 70 days of exposure. The effect of carbonation on concrete specimens with the inclusion of mPOFA and nPOFA was investigated. The carbonation depth was identified by phenolphthalein solution. The highest carbonation resistance of concrete was found after the inclusion of 10% mPOFA and 0.5% nPOFA, while the lowest carbonation resistance was found after the inclusion of 30% mPOFA and 1.5% nPOFA.

“…Therefore, heat-treated can be used as a means to increase the resistance against fungal decay and insect attack and subsequently improve the properties of raw OPS aggregates and the resulting concrete properties. Recently, OPS HSLWAC with a corresponding 28-day compressive strength of more than 40 MPa and a density of about 2000 kg/m 3 have been successfully produced compared to normal strength LWAC , Islam et al, 2016, Yew et al, 2015. In current research, there have no experimental researches have been performed on improving durability properties and drying shrinkage of OPSC, particularly by incorporating heat-treated and non-treated OPS species (dura and tenera) to achieve high strength lightweight concrete.…”

Aim: In this study, the effects of heat-treated and non-treated oil palm shell (OPS) species (dura and tenera) are investigated on the slump, density and compressive strength of oil palm shell concrete (OPSC). Two different species of OPS coarse aggregates are subjected to heat treatment at 65 and 130°C with the duration of 1 h. The results show that the workability of the OPSC increases significantly with an increase in temperature of heat-treated of the tenera OPS aggregates. It is found that the maximum achievable 28-days and 180-days compressive strength is 51 and 54 MPa, respectively. Furthermore, rapid chloride penetration tests (RCPT), porosity measurement and water absorption tests were performance to signify the effects of heat treatment on different OPS species lightweight concrete (LWC).The use of heat-treated OPS LWC induced the advantageous of reducing the permeability and capillary porosity as well as water absorption. The results showed that the ideal of heat treatment method has enhanced the performance of drying shrinkage. Hence, the findings of this study are of primary importance as they revealed that the heat treatment on OPS species LWC can be used as a new environmentally friendly method to enhance the durability properties and drying shrinkage of OPS LWC.
