Therefore, this research is looking for value-added to these types of materials from the production of pyrolysis oil. This paper was intended to determine the best ratio of feedstock to produce high quantity of bio-oil yield and to determine properties of chemicals produced in bio-oil. The samples of empty fruit bunches (EFB) with palm kernel shell (PKS), palm leaves (PL) and sawdust (SDT) were co-pyrolyzed with different ratios (25:75, 50:50 and 75:25) to produce liquid oil, and the yield was analyzed and characterized by using GC-MS. The results show the mixture of EFB:PKS with ratio of 25:75 produced the highest yield of 40.53, meanwhile, the co-pyrolysis of EFB:SDT produced the lowest yield which was 19.25. The chemicals for each bio-oil were determined and the major organic chemicals such as phenols, aldehydes group, methyl alcohol and acetic acids were found for the purpose products of our fine chemicals. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. date: 2021 publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85112253781&doi=10.1007%2f978-981-16-3641-7_35&partnerID=40&md5=50e96157975610677ad55872a7881e4f id_number: 10.1007/978-981-16-3641-7₃₅ full_text_status: none publication: Lecture Notes in Mechanical Engineering pagerange: 296-302 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9789811636400 issn: 21954356 citation: Zaman, N.A.B.B.N. and Osman, N.B. and Aqsha, A.
