Recovering palm oil from empty fruit bunch (EFB) liquor
er palm oil from empty fruit bunch liquor makes it possible to separate the out-lets into solids, oil and water. The water can subsequently be disposed of safely as effluent. Most other separation tech-niques, such as belt or filter presses, will only result in 2-phases.
Mar 01, 2014· 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 . Based on Malaysia's palm oil production of 18.8 million tonnes in 2012, the
Empty Fruit Bunches Not Useless Indonesian Palm Oil
But the empty palm fruit bunches are not the kind of waste that is useless. Why not? It’s because the empty bunches can be used as fertilizer without being processed. It can be also used as a medium to grow edible mushrooms. It is easy to make the empty bunches as organic fertilizer as it does not need any certain process before.
