Thailand

Detail

This invention presents a lightweight and sustainable concrete produced by incorporating high-volume palm oil fuel ash, biochar, and oil palm shell as alternative materials. The combination reduces cement consumption, lowers carbon emissions, and enhances durability through improved microstructure. The resulting concrete offers reduced density, adequate strength, and environmental benefits suitable for green construction applications
