| Abstract | energy resources such as biomass have been increasing due to the decrease in fossil fuel resources. Biomass is a by-product generated from agricultural or industrial wastes. The main advantage of biomass is evident from its abundant availability and sustainability. Biomass is commonly found as wood chips, domestic wastes, animal wastes, effluent sludge and agricultural residues, which can amount to more than 150 million tonnes annually. In the current hunt for greener technologies, biomass has become a highly in demand commodity. Rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) biomass is a promising candidate as an alternative renewable energy source in years to come. Until now, the rubber industry has always relied heavily on latex for income, while trunks and branches are used for the wood industry. The alternative use of rubber as feedstock for biomass would provide a higher value-added material for smallholders. |
