Production and Characterization of Low-ash Empty Fruit
Assuming that the mean weight ratio of mesocarp fibre, palm kernel shell and empty fruit bunches (EFB) to fresh fruit bunches (FFB) is 13%, 6% and 23% [8,9] respectively, the estimated total solid biomass production from the palm oil milling sector alone was 40.3 million t (wet basis) based on 98.28 million t FFB processed in 2019 .
Empty fruit bunch (EFB) is one of the abundant biomass waste from oil palm and it is an issue that it can be used as renewable energy in the form of Bio-oil. Bio-oil is produced by a thermal
Review of the fuel properties, characterisation techniques
The valorisation of oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) in the palm oil industry is hampered by major challenges due to its poor fuel properties, which require comprehensive characterisation and pre-treatment. This paper presents an overview of the various technologies currently employed for the fuel characterisation and pre-treatment of OPEFB in the literature. Furthermore, the paper
At a conservative estimate, for every tonne of palm oil produced from a fresh fruit bunch, approximately 1 t of empty fruit bunch (EFB), 0.7 t of palm fibers, 0.3 t of palm kernels and 0.3 t of palm shells are generated, which amounts to a total palm biomass of 2.3 t [6]. Based on Malaysia's palm oil production of 18.8 million tonnes in 2012
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH (EFB) PELLETS
Solid biomass from palm oil mills, namely mesocarp fibre, palm kernel shell and empty fruit bunches (EFB) comprises about 42% of the fresh fruit bunches (FFB), is mainly used as boiler fuel [3
Empty fruit bunch (EFB) utilization to produce valuable bio-chemicals is seen as an economical and sustainable alternative to waste management in palm oil industries. This work proposed an integrated biorefinery configuration of EFB valorization considering sustainability pillars—namely, economic, environmental, and safety criteria. Techno-economic analysis, life cycle assessment, and hazard
Production and Characterization of Low-Ash Empty Fruit
In searching for lignocellulosic-based alternative pellets, quality is key, ash in particular, for market acceptance and penetration. One such feedstock of growing importance, pressed empty fruit bunches (EFB) fibres, was exploited in this study via 3 different physical pretreatment methods (Tests 1–3) prior to pre-pelletising in an industrial-scale plant for improving the ash content. The
The pre-treatment and pelletisation of oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) can potentially improve its biofuel properties for efficient thermal energy recovery. Therefore, this paper examines the physicochemical, thermal, kinetic, and thermodynamic properties of OPEFB pellets as a potential feedstock for pyrolysis. Physicochemical analysis revealed high proportions of carbon, volatiles, and
An overview of empty fruit bunch from oil palm as feedstock
EFB is a bulky and voluminous brown bunch left over at palm oil mills after the removal of sterilized fruit by a rotary thresher drum. It is irregular in shape, weighs about 3.5 kg and has a thickness of 130 mm [20], and can vary from 170 to 300 mm long and 250–350 mm wide [11]. The biological growth of fruit bunches, coupled with the
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) represents Indonesian major agriculture crop, nevertheless, its cultivation and processing results in an excessive amount of waste biomass, namely, empty fruit bunches (EFB), which is not always properly processed or reused. Therefore, the present investigation was performed to attract wide public interest in proper waste management and reuse of waste
- Are oil palm empty fruit bunch pellets oxidative?
- In this study, the non-oxidative torrefaction of oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) pellets was investigated from 250 to 300 °C for 30 min in a horizontal fixed bed tubular reactor. The effects of the selected conditions on the yields, distributions and fuel characteristics of the torrefaction products were examined.
- Can waste biomass from palm oil mill be used for bio-pellet fuel?
- Conclusions The main aim of performed investigation was to determine the suitability of waste biomass from palm oil mill, i.e., primarily composed of oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB), for the production of bio-pellet fuel.
- Can empty fruit bunch be used as a feedstock for bio-oil production?
- Empty fruit bunch (EFB) from oil palm is one of the potential biomass to produce biofuels like bio-oil due to its abundant supply and favorable physicochemical characteristics. Confirming the assertion, this paper presents an overview of EFB as a feedstock for bio-oil production.
- Can oil palm-based biomass pellets be used for densification?
- Fuel quality is among the major issues encountered for commercial production and utilisation of oil palm-based biomass pellets from empty fruit bunches (EFB). In this study, a physical treatment, namely sieving and water washing, was applied to EFB prior to densification using an industrial-scale plant.
