Abstract

The Palm Oil Factory (PKS) is a factory that operates to process Fresh Fruit Bunches/FFB into several products, the main products of the palm oil factory are Crude Palm Oil (CPO) and Palm Kernel Oil (PKO). This research aims to measure temperature temperature in the distribution pipe between the turbine and the back pressure vessel which uses the observation method by observing directly. The results of this research show that on T1 on the first day the temperature was 161.5°C, on the second day there was a fairly low temperature drop at 142°C, on T2 it was not far from T1, on T3 there was a decrease in temperature in the boiler and at T4 there is a fairly low decrease and increase in temperature. Researcher Manarik concluded that a decrease in temperature between the distribution pipe between the turbine and the Back Pressure Vessel is a common occurrence in palm oil mills, and this can affect the operational efficiency and performance of the mill. Therefore, this research aims to determine the loss of heat energy. by conduction in the steam distribution pipe entitled "Analysis of Heat Loss by Conduction in the Steam Channel (Pipe) from the Turbine to the Back Pressure Vessel in a Palm Oil Mill (PKS) with a Capacity of 45 Tons/Hour"

Abstract

Water is a crucial factor in ensuring smooth and high-quality production in palm oil mills. Minerals present in water can lead to scale formation, sedimentation, and equipment corrosion. Therefore, the demineralization process with cation and anion regeneration is beneficial to maintain water quality in accordance with op- erational standards. Water plays a vital role in the industrial sector; boilers, as primary steam generators, transform water into vapor through heating. However, operating without good water quality can result in issues like scale formation and corrosion. In water treatment processes, chemical substances are required for purification, such as Nalco 3276 for flocculation and Nalco 8173 for flocculant retention. The mineral content in water also affects chemical reactions, such as causing scale formation in boilers and influencing reaction processes. Demineral- ization is frequently employed across various industrial sectors, including palm oil mills, to treat boiler feedwater and other raw materials. Maintaining stable boiler feedwater usage by controlling pH and total hardness prevents problems in pipelines. This research focuses on cation and anion regeneration to reduce min- eral content in boiler feedwater at PT. Bakrie Sumatera Plantations, Tbk Palm Oil Mill Kisaran, with the aim to analyze the regeneration process using H2SO4 and NaOH dosages and identify factors causing issues during regeneration.

Abstract

Unproductive oil palm stems can produce Umbut which is the raw material for bioethanol production. In general, the production process of bioethanol from lignocellulosic materials includes oil palm stalks. The bioethanol production process goes through several stages of physical, chemical or biological pretreatment, polymer saccharification, sugar fermentation, and ethanol separation and purification. This study aims to determine the production of bioethanol from oil palm stems (Elaeis Guineensis Jacq) through a pretreatment process using H2S04 and fermentation using baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The method used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) Non Factorial with 3 treatment levels and 1 control, and 3 repetitions (Triplo) with a total sample of 12 samples. The resulting bioethanol is then tested (moisture  content,  yield,  and  pH).  The  resulting  data  were  analyzed  using ANOVA and Duncan's test. Based on the results of this study, the best treatment was found in the H0 treatment with a yield of 34.5%, 1.52% moisture content and 5,6 % pH

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. Organoleptic test of taste and aroma all panelists gave normal assessments for all samples, organoleptic test of sample texture K1H1, K1H2, K1H3, dan K2H1 has an abnormal texture, sample K2H2, K2H3, K3H1, K3H2 dan K3H3 has a normal texture.

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).
