Agro-Pellets from Oil Palm Residues/Pine Sawdust Mixtures
The need for biomass as an alternative source for energy purposes points toward oil palm fruit residues (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) as an attractive solution. Oil palm industry residue, such as oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) composites and mesocarp fiber (PMF), have a high gross calorific value and could help countries meet their energy demands. However, information concerning physical ...
The palm oil industries have been claimed to be a significant contributor to global warming through GHG emissions from the land-use change of palm oil expansion and the milling residual biomass. Lee et al. ( 2018 ) reported that palm oil was included among the agriculture activities that contributed to the second-highest GHG emissions by the ...
Palm Kernel Shell Pelletizing Plant|Make Palm Fiber Pellets
Before biomass pellets enter the world market, palm kernel shells are generally be used to make black color palm kernel compost by burying underneath the land for a very long time. With the develop of biomass fuel and pelleting technology, palm kernel shell is becoming hot in pellet making industry in recent years due to its high calorific and ...
Palm kernel shells (PKS) are the hard outer shells of the palm kernel fruits that are left as a by-product after the extraction of palm oil. PKS is a high-density material that is rich in carbon and can be used in various applications such as fuel for biomass boilers, charcoal production, and as a raw material for the production of activated carbon.
Palm Oil Industry Residues, SpringerLink
Oil palm industry generates a large quantity of residues and wastes in the form of empty fruit bunch, palm kernel shells, trunk of the plant, fibre, leaves and others. When palm oil is extracted and processed, it also produces effluents with high organic matter, suspended matter and oil and grease.
Both are useful materials, with palm oil traditionally used for edible purposes such as cooking and frying, whereas palm kernel oil is for non-edible purposes such as the formulation of soap, cosmetics and detergent. The residue that remains — tonnes of it — is known as palm kernel cake (PKC).
palm kernel shells, BioEnergy Consult
The palm kernel shells used to be initially dumped in the open thereby impacting the environment negatively without any economic benefit. However, over time, palm oil mills in Southeast Asia and elsewhere realized their brilliant properties as a fuel and that they can easily replace coal as an industrial fuel for generating heat and steam.
(Hasanudin et al., 2015). Thus, following oil extraction processes, around 40% of the oil palm fruit remains as solid residual material consists of the OPEFB, shells, and fibers. While oil palm shells and fibers are already used in oil palm mills to generate power and heat required for oil palm fruit processing
- Can oil palm empty fruit bunch pellets be used as biomass fuel?
- This study aims to determine the potential and challenges of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) pellet as biomass fuel. The study was conducted by observing the process of commercial OPEFB pellets production and analysing some characteristics of the pellets.
- Why is palm kernel a good biomass fuel?
- Palm kernel shells contain residues of Palm Oil, which accounts for its slightly higher heating value than average lignocellulosic biomass. Compared to other residues from the industry, it is a good quality biomass fuel with uniform size distribution, easy handling, easy crushing, and limited biological activity due to low moisture content.
- Can palm oil be used as a fuel?
- The results from the analysis prove that palm oil residues can contribute significantly in the production of electricity and process heat. They can also be used as fuel in a compact form like pellets which allows easy distribution and storage.
- How is palm oil pressed?
- In the Palm Oil mill, fresh fruit bunches are sterilized after which the oil fruits can be removed from the branches. The empty fruit bunches (are left as residues, and the fruits are pressed in oil mills. The Palm Oil fruits are then pressed, and the kernel is separated from the press cake (mesocarp fibers).
- How does the palm oil industry dispose of waste?
- The Palm Oil industry generates large quantity of wastes whose disposal is a challenging task. In the Palm Oil mill, fresh fruit bunches are sterilized after which the oil fruits can be removed from the branches. The empty fruit bunches (are left as residues, and the fruits are pressed in oil mills.
- What happens in a palm oil mill?
- In a palm oil mill, almost 70% of the fresh fruit bunches are turned into biomass wastes in the form of empty fruit bunches, fibers, shells and liquid effluent.
