• Why do Malaysian palm oil mills adopt advanced milling technologies?
  • Malaysian palm oil mills have lagged behind in the adoption of advanced milling technologies, both to support productivity growth as well as meet sustainable development goals. Using primary data from a simple random sample of 54 mills, this study sought to examine the factors explaining the adoption of advanced milling technologies.
  • Can advanced milling technologies be used in the palm oil industry?
  • Consequently, the results offer a strong theoretical basis for the adoption of advanced milling technologies in the palm oil industry in Malaysia. It also replicates past findings on the influence of cost factors in the installation and maintenance of new milling technologies.
  • What is the adoption rate of palm oil milling technologies?
  • Although there has been a surge in advanced milling technologies across the palm oil industry, the adoption rate has been low. Bello and Abdul Raman [ 26] found that more than 85% of milling firms are based on anaerobic ponding systems, while the rest implement open digestion tanks.
  • How does palm oil milling work?
  • FFB passes through multiple unit operations in the milling process, each consists of different technologies. Palm oil millers have tried to improve the milling technologies collectively and individually to enhance the extraction efficiency, meeting the process and product requirements.
  • What is a standard plan for automation of palm oil mills?
  • ABSTRACT tification for he automation systems reviewed orto suggest Automation is the function of monitoring and regulating process a standard plan for automation of all palm oil mills.
  • What is the integrated zero-waste oil palm processing strategy?
  • The integrated zero-waste oil palm processing strategy will simultaneously increase revenue and improve the sustainability of the oil palm industry. In the zero-waste oil palm processing strategy, the by-products generated during oil palm mill processing become resources for other processes and thus, waste is eliminated.
