Abstract

The company's Palm Oil Mill (PKS) that produces the main products are Crude Palm Oil (CPO), Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) while the byproducts are solid waste in the form of fiber, shells, and Empty Fruit Bunches. Palm oil mill solid waste in the form of fiber and shells has the potential to become fuel for Steam Power Plants (PLTU). Fresh Fruit Bunch (TBS) Material Balance from Palm Oil Mill production output: Shells: 7%, Fiber: 13%, Empty bunches: 22% which can generate the total available Heat Calor of 28.936×106 Kcal / hour, and Total Total Power can be generated as much as 3.9 MW from the Palm Oil Mill Solid Waste which produces a thoughtput of 50 Tons / hour.

Abstract

Palm oil fibers are waste products from Palm Oil Mill which is in the form of debris, solid, length of 3-4 cm, contained in coconut fruit (mesocarp) meat. Fiber roof building is the result of utilization of palm fiber waste as a roof of a building that is used to reduce heat from sunlight or from heat sources, so it is not directly exposed to humans and the surrounding environment. Fiber roof building is made by arranging the fiber in the mold and arranged in accordance with the dimensions to be made. To bind between fibers, used resin that has been mixed with the catalyst material, so easy to dry quickly. The ratio between resin and fiber is 1: ¼. The result of conduction heat conduction test that has been done on the fiber test object can reduce the highest heat of 125 °C and the lowest is 109 °C from the given heat source of 200 °C. This shows that palm fiber can be used as a heat reducer for buildings.

Abstract

Cylindrical Settling Tank (CST) is a unit of clarification station that functions as a process of placing and extracting / extracting palm oil using the under flow and upper flow processes of palm oil. A clarification station is a station in a palm oil mill which functions to separate oil, water, sludge and other objects involved in the refining process of palm oil. This process aims to obtain clean palm oil and avoid dirt and water levels during the extraction process. The higher / thicker the oil layer is taken, it will affect the quality of the palm oil obtained, so it is carried out by taking palm oil slowly (laminar flow). Taking the height / thickness of palm oil is carried out on a skimmer unit that can rise and fall from the surface of the palm oil using a screw system. The results of taking the height / height of palm oil from the level of 20 cm, 30 cm, and 40 cm with the average yield of water content and CST feed impurities are 29.125% and 38.931%, the average output of the Skimmer for moisture and moisture content. the impurities are 1.039% and 0.089%. The mean wet oil tank output was 0.956% and 0.037%, and the mean moisture content and dirt content of the vaccum drier were 0.196% and 0.021%.

Abstract

Throughput is the ability of a company's production unit to process raw materials into final products that have value, in accordance with established standards. Palm Oil Mill (PKS) is a processing company for raw materials in the harvest of palm oil in the form of Fresh Fruit Bunches processed into Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) products and their by-products in the form of solid waste (empty bunches, fiber, shells) and liquid. PKS production can be achieved throughput produced by looking at the production process that occurs in each work unit, namely: the value of the capacity of the stew is done, sequencing time, steam boiler requirements, Material Balance. The capacity owned by PKS XYZ is 60 tons/hour, does not meet the targeted throughput, where the sterilizer capacity is only able to reach 45 tons/hour, sequencing time is 45 minutes, the steam boiler produced is not sufficient to produce 60 tons of PKS/hour, and the existing Material Balance is not met, which are 38 tons/hour.
