Biomass Palm oil as Renewable Energy MSPO
The palm oil industry for biomass has been proven to produce a vast supply of by-products that can be readily used for future energy sources. Principle 5 of the revised MSPO Standards MS2530:2022 has highlighted in
The quest for sustainable energy solutions is critical in mitigating climate change and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Elaeis guineensis, commonly known as the oil palm, produces
Palm oil and its wastes as bioenergy sources: a Springer
Due to global warming and increasing price of fossil fuel, scientists all over the world have been trying to find reliable alternative fuels. One of the most potential candidates is
Oil palm biomass can be turned into three subcategories: bioproduct, biofuels, and biopower. Focusing on biofuel, the biodiesel from palm oil will be explored in detail and its implication in

Abstract. The increasing energy demand and rising concern about climate change have become two significant factors in finding alternative energy sources other than fossil fuels.
Jan 1, 2011The type of biomass produced from oil palm industry includes empty fruit bunch (EFB), fiber, shell, wet shell, palm kernel, fronds and trunks. Table 3 also summarizes the types and

According to Onochie et al. [21], the oil palm biomass is a potential alternative to fossil fuel energy for the purpose of combustion as the oil palm biomass contain high calorific
- How biomass waste is used in palm oil production?
- Biomass residue can be used as fuel in the boiler or be converted into organic fertilizer. Palm oil mills operate cogeneration system to produce electricity and steam for palm oil production process using solid biomass wastes as main source of energy input.
- Can palm oil biomass be used for power plant operation?
- The utilization of palm oil biomass waste for power plant operation can reduce waste from edible oil extraction (Mironova et al., 2022). The high cellulose content of palm oil biomass can be transformed into heat-powered energy through pyrolysis.
- What is biomass power generation in palm oil mills?
- Figure 10a–c show the typical practice of biomass power generation in palm oil mills. Some larger palm oil mills sell palm kernel shells (PKS) and palm kernel cake (PKC) as additional revenue sources. Practically, the power and steam required for CPO production are met mainly by consuming palm MF as fuel in an on-site boiler.
- Should palm oil mills convert biomass waste?
- Although palm oil mills nowadays are encouraged to convert their biomass waste, some economic parameters may complicate the conversion process. Kodera et al. (2021) stated in their study that biomass pyrolysis incurs various costs.
- 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).
- Does palm oil supply chain benefit from biomass conversion?
- The palm oil supply chain system will receive higher benefits if they perform biomass conversion. However, the palm oil mill should observe the economic conditions. The low biomass energy market and high biomass conversion costs force the palm oil stakeholders to reduce their prices and cover higher operational costs.
