Figures from Admine product specs used in supply talks — not a lab certificate for every lot.
Whole EFB is bulky and wetter to handle. Chopped EFB costs more to process but feeds more evenly into many industrial systems.
Admine briefs whole EFB moisture max 55% and chopped palm bunch max 50%, both with calorific value above 1,700 kcal/kg as commercial ranges.
Choose form based on conveyors and boiler acceptance—not only tonne price. Wet water weight still dominates delivered energy cost.
Tell Admine which form your plant can receive before comparing Thai offers.
