EFFECT OF NEW PALM OIL MILL PROCESSES ON THE EFB
Compared to conventional palm oil mills (type A) the investment cost can be reduced up to 35%.With the process of mulch or compost production from EFB in combination with POME or ECO-D slurry (with or without anaerobic fermentation with biogas production before) it is possible to realize a sustainable process in palm oil mills with 'zero waste

Effect of new palm oil mill processes on the EFB
New palm oil mill processes are characterized by advanced oil separation technologies with zero dilution water (‘ECO-D’ for example as a new system for oil recovery without dilution water) and continuous sterilization of the fresh fruit bunch (FFB). These processes have a deep impact on the amount and composition of waste water (POME). Compared to conventional palm oil mills the total
The new developments of processes in palm oil mills can reduce the cost for the waste and waste water treatment up to 35%. The benefits from biogas production and composting are the energy production, saved POME treatment cost in pond systems, total utilization of the POME nutrients, reduced cost for the EFB transport and utilization, higher

As one of the traditional backbone industries in Malaysia, the palm oil mills and the national palm oil research institute are always seeking the way to optimize the production, and improve the added value of the by-products. focus on the research of palm EFB utilization. Below is the typical process flow of palm oil mills.
Sustainable Wastewater Management in Palm Oil Mills
Effect of new palm oil mill processes on the EFB and POME utilization One process for the EFB and POME utilization which can fulfil the demand of a sustainable palm oil production is the co
Effect of new palm oil mill processes on the EFB and POME utilisation F. Schuchardt1, K. Wulfert2, D. Darnoko3, T. Herawan3. ABSTRACT New palm oil mill processes are characterised by advanced oil separation technologies with zero dilution water (ECO-D System for example) and continuous sterilisation of the FFB.
New process for combined treatment of waste (EFB)
One of the keys for a sustainable palm oil production is the process in the oil mill it-self. The by-products in a palm oil mill are empty fruit bunches (EFB), mesocarp fi-bre, shells, waste water
A case study of the EFB-POME aerobic co-composting plant in Sei Daun Palm Oil Mill (North Sumatra) and Bekri Palm Oil Mill (Lampung) showed that about 0.091 m 3 of wastewater or about 13.06% of POME still remains and needs to be treated or utilized for land application.
