  • What is a palm oil mill plant?
  • A palm oil mill plant adopts the most scientific palm oil processing equipment configuration using mechanical oil pressing technology to successfully extract palm oil from palm fruit. The palm oil milling process plant consists of three major plants: the crude palm oil pressing plant, water treatment plant, and power supply plant.
  • How is palm oil produced in Malaysia?
  • The typical final steam produced is saturated steam with pressure and temperature at less than 21 bar and 2100C respectively. Fig. 1. Palm oil production growth in Malaysia . The high pressure steam from the boiler enters the BPC at 17-20 bar and expands through the turbine blades for the energy conversion.
  • Why do palm oil mills use low pressure steam?
  • Most of the mills are in the position to generate more power and supply electricity to nearby residential areas. In some or in most of the cases the low pressure steam is let to atmosphere as the power produced is normally more than sufficient for use in the palm oil mill.
  • What is a palm oil mill machine?
  • A palm oil mill machine is a type of machinery used for processing palm fruit with a capacity of 5-120TPH. In the palm oil mill process, palm fruit undergoes reception, unloading, cleaning, and storage on a platform. This process is facilitated by hydraulic segmented discharge.
  • What is palm oil mil process of power house?
  • The palm oil mill process of the power house involves the use of diesel powered generators and turbine generators for more environmentally friendly energy production and electricity consumption.
  • How do palm oil mills sustain their power requirement?
  • Currently most of the palm oil mill sustains their power requirement through the cogeneration process [2-3]. Energy gain through recovery during the energy transformation process (thermo-chemical and thermo-electrical) is critical towards its impact on sustainability.
