Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics of Oil Palm Empty Bunch powder (OPEBP). The method performed in OPEBP processing into nano particles is used by the method of ball mill and coprecipitation. The characterization results of X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) show that the OPEBP crystalline diameter size is 68,62 nm with Crystal system trigonal (hexagonal axes) Unit cell a = 8.376Å c = 3.884 Å, I/Ic 3.16 with density calculated 2.536 g/cm 3 the elements contained are Si, O, Ca. Morphology results showed uniform and homogeneous particle distribution. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
