Coconut shells have high calorific value and can be used as biofuel through pyrolysis, gasification, or direct combustion. They produce biochar, syngas, or biocoal, useful for power generation or soil amendment. While GlobeCore specializes in liquid biofuel (biodiesel), coconut shell processing represents an additional renewable energy opportunity. When integrated into a full coconut-based energy system (oil + biomass), it creates a zero-waste, carbon-neutral fuel model ideal for island and rural regions.
