Abstract

Background: The palm oil industry strives to implement sustainable development, maintaining the environmental quality. However, the palm oil industry has problems processing liquid waste, often known as palm oil mill effluent (POME), since it could pollute the environment. This waste also requires a large costs to be processed. On the other hand, there is potential economic value from liquid waste to be processed into several products, namely biogas, organic fertilizer, and refining value-added compounds. Currently, POME waste processing innovation could be conducted by applying plasma nanobubble (PNB) technology. This creates opportunities for a business that is engaged in developing this technology.Purpose: The aim of this research is to analyse the business model of the Plasma Nano Bubble (PNB) technology development business for the palm oil industry. Design/methodology/approach: This research uses the Business Model Canvas (BMC) to map the business processes of the Plasma Nano Bubble (PNB) technology development.Findings/Result: This study indicate that the most prominent attribute exhibited by PNB technological enterprises is their value offer, which is demonstrated by their ability to deliver efficient processing time and cost effectiveness, resource efficiency, adherence to government regulations, and the establishment of strategic collaborations with external entities. Meanwhile, the weakest element is customer relations, as only long-term relationships, and the provision of intensive training for PNB technology resellers were found in this aspect. Several indicators were proposed to improve the business model of PNB's technology, namely key partnership, the key activity, value proposition, and customer relationship.Conclusion: This research gives an important contribution related to the environmental benefits of implementing this business. The continuous development for this technology needs to be implemented to process POME waste effectively and efficiently.Originality/value (State of the art): The state of the art of this research is the development of business models for environmentally friendly products in the palm oil sector, which is currently rarely conducted, in this case the study of PNB technology products. Keywords: business model canvas, palm oil, plasma-nano bubble (pnb) technology, sustainable development, palm oil waste

Abstract

Background: Import tariffs are widely used in developing countries to manage food systems; however, their effects on the core pillars of food security under real-world shocks and institutional constraints remain debated.Purpose: To evaluate how higher versus lower (including zero) import tariffs on major foods influence food availability, access, and stability, and to draw implications for diet quality (utilization).Design/methodology/approach: A PRISMA-guided systematic literature review of Scopus-indexed, English-language journal articles (2020–2024). Twenty-five studies that met the predefined quality and relevance criteria were synthesized using a theory-driven narrative approach that describes how tariff settings shape trade and price channels, and, in turn, food security outcomes. Export restrictions are treated as exogenous stability shocks.Findings/Results: Lower tariffs generally expand market-level availability, reduce consumer prices, and dampen routine domestic volatility through import diversification. Benefits are uneven without producer upgrading and fragile during global shocks. Utilization improves when barriers to nutrient-dense foods are removed; however, openness can accelerate ultra-processed food penetration without strong nutrition governance. The effects are conditioned by logistics performance, domestic competition and pass-through, governance quality, policy space, and commodity mix.Conclusion: The most food-secure configuration is calibrated openness: liberalize where social welfare rises, pair reforms with farmer adjustment and productivity support, strengthen logistics and competition, preserve nutrition policy space, and operate a rules-based stability architecture.Originality/value (State of the art): Provides an up-to-date, developing-country synthesis that centers import tariffs, integrates utilization and governance into the trade–food security nexus, and translates evidence into operational policy guidance. Keywords: developing countries, food security, import tariffs, nutrition, trade liberalization.
