• What is a palm oil production plant?
  • This Palm Oil Production Plant is based on practically proven technology which is not only energy efficient & environment friendly, but also economical. This is a large scale palm kernel oil processing project set up in Nigeria. The production capacity is 120 tons per day. It is a complete plant including Seed Cleaner, GOYUM 27
  • Does palm oil mill increase the production of edible oil and biomass energy?
  • Consequently, the palm oil mill increases the production of edible oil and biomass energy. High production of fresh fruit bunches can lower the prices of edible oil and biomass energy (Proposition 2 (c) and 2 (f)).
  • Does the palm oil mill consider biomass energy conversion?
  • In this scheme, the palm oil mill, as the Stackelberg leader, does not consider biomass energy conversion. The palm oil mill may also anticipate the farmer¡¯s actions. Initially, the palm oil mill declares its sales margin from edible oil selling.
  • Can palm oil mills generate surplus energy from biomass pyrolysis?
  • Montoya et al., (2020) stated that many palm oil mills have proven to generate surplus energy from the biomass pyrolysis process. Government-owned electricity companies in Indonesia have sought to cooperate with local palm oil mills to support the national electricity supply (Antara News, 2023).
  • How are palm kernels used?
  • Palm kernels are subsequently dried and stored, ready to be dispatched to kernel crushing plants. Palm kernel shells and pressed mesocarp fibers find utility as solid fuel feedstock for the steam boiler. Palm oil mills are typically self-sufficient in energy generation due to the ample availability of biomass.
  • What is a typical palm oil milling process flow?
  • The typical palm oil milling process flow is best described through a series of activities conducted in different stations (Figure 2). It all begins with the transportation of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) from plantation sites to the palm oil mills.
