  • How does a palm oil mill work?
  • Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. A palm oil mill produces crude palm oil, crude palm kernel oil and other biomass from fresh fruit bunches. Although the milling process is well established in the industry, insufficient research and development reported in optimising and analysing the operations of a palm oil mill.
  • What factors affect the performance of a palm oil mill?
  • Although the milling process is well established in the industry, insufficient research and development reported in optimising and analysing the operations of a palm oil mill. The performance of a palm oil mill (e.g., costs, utilisation and flexibility) is affected by factors such as operating time, capacity and fruit availability.
  • 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.
  • Does capacity utilization affect the production of palm oil mill?
  • This paper measured the capacity utilization of the palm oil mill operation system. The underutilized of capacity effect the production of the mill may disrupt the entire chain in the industry. Data were collected from a palm oil mill as the case study.
