Abstract

In this study, the utilization of oil palm resources will be carried out. One of them is by using palm sap into jelly candy. The purpose of this study was to study the manufacture of jelly candy based on palm sap and to find out the best composition of Carrageenan and HFS in the manufacture of jelly candy based on palm sap. The stages of this research were starting from sap sampling, making jelly candy, sample testing and data processing. The method used in this study was a factorial completely randomized design (CRD) and consisted of 2 factors, each factor having 3 variations. Carrageenan Factor : K1 : 2 %, K2 : 4 % and K3 : 6 %. HFS factor : H1 : 20 %, H2 : 25 %, H3 : 30%. The test was carried out 3 times. Sample testing includes water content, vitamin c content, and organoleptic tests for aroma, taste and texture. From the results of research conducted on 9 treatments: K1H1, K1H2, K1H3, K2H1, K2H2, K2H3, K3H1, K3H2 and K3H3. The interaction of the addition of carrageenan and HFS has no significant effect on the moisture and vitamin C content of jelly candy based on palm sap. There was no interaction that had a significant effect on the addition of Carrageenan and HFS due to the different functions of the ingredients, Carrageenan served to thicken the jelly candy and HFS served to give a sweet taste to the jelly candy. The higher concentration of Carrageenan given is directly proportional to the high content of reducing ash and the higher concentration of HFS given is directly proportional to the high content of reducing sugar.

Abstract

In the last 10 years, the Palm Oil Mill (PKS) in Indonesia has grown very rapidly. Most of the large names of oil palm plantations have gradually changed throughout Indonesia to oil palm plantations. One of the processes to achieve efficiency in the Palm Oil Mill can be determined in the fruit ripening process. Where the perfection of the ripening process is influenced by the condition of the fruit and the ripening system. One of the problems that need to be faced in the vertical boiling process is the occurrence of losses or also called oil loss in the condensate air. Oil losses can occur due to various factors, including differences in fruit sources processed in the PKS. In this study, a factorial complete randomized planning method will be used which has two factors. The highest losses are in third party fruit/community fruit with a total of 11.04%, and the lowest total losses are in core plantation fruit with a total of 4.8%. The highest oil losses are in third party fruit or community fruit, this is due to the length of time the fruit has been sorted overnight which can cause the fruit to be overripe and also in fruit that is injured by the loader. The results of this analysis show that the double peak system has a significant impact on oil losses to third parties/community members.

Abstract

Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is abundantly available in the palm oil industry and has significant potential for generating renewable energy, specifically biogas, through the biogasification process. This study investigates the relationship between the reduction of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) values and pH changes in POME during the biogas production process. The study employs a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with a single factor and four levels. Data were analyzed over five observation periods spanning 24 days. The results show a significant decrease in COD concentration from 96,300 mg/L on day 0 to 22,720 mg/L on day 24. This reduction is attributed to microbial activity, with Effective Microorganisms (EM4) being used in this research. Additionally, an inverse relationship between pH and COD was observed, where an increase in pH correlated with a decrease in COD. Biogas production also increased over time, with the cumulative biogas volume reaching 5.2 liters on day 24. The study concludes that more alkaline environmental conditions support the activity of microorganisms responsible for COD reduction and higher biogas production. Recommendations for future research include adding parameters such as temperature and Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA), and further investigation into more effective and efficient microorganism seeding. Thus, this research provides insights into the biogasification process and the development of more efficient and sustainable biogas technology.

Abstract

Oil palm plantations are widespread in Indonesia, triggering the birth of many palm oil processing industries, so that this plant becomes a commodity for the country. Palm oil factories process fresh fruit bunches (FFB) which will later produce crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernel oil (PKO) as derivative products. Based on my experience and information, kernel processing in PKS cannot be fully maximized. Because many kernels are heated for a very long time so that the cost of production is high, and also many kernels are abandoned, moldy and smell rancid because the quality of the kernel is not fully achieved. In this case, the best processing of the kernel is needed. So that the quality of the kernel can be achieved. In this final assignment, it will be analyzed how the quality of the kernel is if heated with time and temperature below previous research. So that the kernel quality will be obtained according to SNI 01-000201- 1987 with lower energy consumption. This study will use a non-factorial random design method because it only has 1 factor, namely temperature variation (70 OC, 80 OC, and 100 OC).

Abstract

The smoke chamber used has a capacity of 3,420 kg with a rubber sheet smoking period of five days. Reducing the water content (moisture content) on the rubber sheet is used by heating it with a smoking system. For smoke chamber operations, the fumigation temperature used on the first day is 40 - 45°C, on the second day 45 - 50°C, on the third day 50 - 55°C, on the fourth day 55 - 60°C, and on the fifth day the smoking temperature was maintained at 60°C. FDF and IDF are two air distribution devices, where the FDF functions to blow the air into the smoke chamber and the IDF draws the air into the smoke chamber. The balance between exhaled air and that drawn out of the smoke chamber must be proportional. Too much airflow will collect in the smoke chamber and too much the air withdrawal will affect heat transfer. After installing the FDF and IDF tools, the smoking time is 4 (four) days, so the use of smoked wood (rubber stem wood) is reduced from 3.19 m3 (for 5 days of smoking) to 2.55 m3 (for 4 days of smoking). There is a saving of one operational day. Reducing the use of smoked wood has an impact on processing efficiency. Heat energy from smoking has also increased. Before the installation of the FDF and IDF devices, the amount of heat energy was 64,074 kcal/day (320,372 kcal in 5 days). After installing the FDF and IDF devices, they increase the amount of air / oxygen (O2) in the combustion process so that there is an additional heat energy of 9,461 kcal/day (47,305 kcal in 5 days). The total amount of heat energy produced is 367,677 kcal for 5 (five) days of smoking. FDF and IDF are two air blowers commonly known as blowers with their respective specifications: The FDF used has an electric power of 3 kilowatts (4 horsepower/hp) with a rotation of 1,420 rpm, while the IDF has an electric power of 7.5 kilowatts (10 horsepower/hp). hp) at 1,440 rpm.

Abstract

Oil palm processing is one of the factors that determine the success of an oil palm plantation business. The Palm Oil Mill (PKS) in the context of the palm oil industry in Indonesia is understood as the unit of extraction of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and palm kernel from the Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) of oil palm. The Palm Oil Mill (PKS) is the most upstream processing unit in the palm oil processing industry and is a critical point in the economic life cycle of palm fruit in particular and the palm oil industry in general. The purpose of this study was to find out how much percentage of palm oil loss was contained in the dregs of the press and to find out the optimal conditions for the screw press. The high or low percentage of oil loss in the process that occurs is influenced by several factors, namely the condition of the working pressure on the screw press and the capacity of the diluent water. The average percentage of loss of palm oil in the pressing process obtained from the data is June 5.07% with the norm of losses of pressed waste oil of 0.64%, the average of July is 4.92% with the norm of losses of pressed oil of 0, 64%, and an average of 4.98% in August with a normal loss of 0.64% of pressurized oil losses.
