Abstract

The monitoring and control system in the oil tank filling process plays a crucial role in ensuring efficiency, safety, and accuracy in fuel distribution. This study aims to analyze the implementation of an IoT and SCADA-based monitoring system for oil tank filling using an Omron PLC at PT Pertamina Patra Niaga Meulaboh. The system integrates an Omron Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) as the main control unit, level sensors for real-time tank capacity detection, as well as IoT and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) for remote monitoring. The research methodology includes system design, implementation, and testing, focusing on data communication reliability, sensor accuracy, and tank filling efficiency. The test results show that the system can monitor oil levels with an accuracy of ±0.5%, and improve operational efficiency by reducing filling errors by up to 20% compared to conventional methods. The implementation of IoT allows operators to access real-time filling data through a web-based dashboard, while SCADA provides more structured control over the filling process. The findings of this study conclude that the integration of IoT and SCADA in a PLC-based tank filling system significantly enhances efficiency, accuracy, and safety in oil filling operations. This technology holds great potential for broader application in the oil and gas industry to improve the effectiveness of fuel distribution systems.

Abstract

The utilization of solid and liquid palm oil waste as a renewable energy source for electricity generation is an effort to address waste management issues while improving energy efficiency. This study aims to analyze the potential of palm oil waste, including empty fruit bunches, fibers, shells, and liquid waste (Palm Oil Mill Effluent - POME), in generating electricity through suitable power generation technologies. The methodology includes data collection on the quantity and characteristics of palm oil waste, calculation of the energy potential, and evaluation of energy conversion technologies such as direct combustion, gasification, and biogas production from liquid waste. The study also exam-ines the technical and economic feasibility of implementing palm oil waste-based power plants. The results indicate that solid and liquid palm oil waste has significant energy potential. Empty fruit bunches and shells can generate energy through combustion, while liquid waste produces biogas with high methane content through anaerobic pro-cesses. With optimal management, palm oil waste can provide a reliable source of elec-tricity, reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and support environmental sustainability. This study concludes that utilizing palm oil waste for electricity generation not only enhances energy efficiency but also delivers economic and environmental benefits. Further imple-mentation requires policy support, appropriate technology, and sustainable waste man-agement practices by the palm oil industry.
