Process
Processing of Palm Bunch Ash
Palm Oil in
Indonesia has the most palm oil plantations that are divided in several
islands, especially the island of Sumatra and the island of Borneo, wastes
empty fruit bunches of palm fruit is the raw material for making Palm bunch ash.
The palm fruit will be processed again at the Palm Oil Factory, the Palm Oil
Factory processes the palm fruit by squeezing the palm fruit into Crude
Palm Oil (CPO) and Crude Palm Kernel Oil (CPKO) and
making it a semi-finished product for further processing into various products
such as edible oil, soap, etc .. processing waste from the palm fruit into a
few more products, one of the Empty Fruit Bunch, Empty Fruit Bunch
or empty palm oil is the main product of raw material of Palm Bunch Ash, , the
management of this waste has been overwhelmed due to overstock at the palm oil
mill site,
As a result of the stacking of empty fruit bunches, then made INCINERATOR to burn empty fruit bunches as a waste management solution of the plant. Factories that use Incinerator in the management of palm oil waste, especially bunches of empty fruit bunches have certainly pocketed the permit to burn waste from the local Environment Agency.
Empty Fruit Bunches are burned in high temperatures to accelerate the fuel so that waste does
not accumulate in the location of palm oil mill,
From the
combustion results, we get quality palm ash which is very good for horticulture
plants because it contains high potassium reaches 30%, this organic fertilizer
has high potassium content compared to other products containing the same
compound.
The process
of sieving is also a concern in the process of quality palm bunch ash with the
filtering of 40 mash and done in dry tenpat should not be moist, because the
moisture content greatly affects the quality of the ash palm plot, and
separation of dirt like empty bunches of palm oil that has not been perfectly
burned will be filtered here.
Packing
process using inner plastics (Inner bag) is also very important because after
gray palm ash should be hastened in packing in sack ...thank you
