Abstract:
Oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) is one of the major solid wastes from palm oil processing. EFB is a lignocellulosic biomass and has the potential to be converted into microbial oil through biochemical routes, where the oils can be further used for biodiesel production. This PhD research aimed to develop and optimise a process for microbial oil production from EFB. The microbial oil production process involves cultivation by oleaginous microorganisms including microalgae, yeasts and fungi on EFB hydrolysates as carbon substrates. The study demonstrated that EFB is a promising low cost non-food feedstock for biodiesel production. The integration of microbial oil production from oil palm biomass with existing palm oil processing could enhance the profitability and sustainability of the palm oil industry.

Abstract:
Biomass is an important new energy source because it is indigenous to every part of the world, inexpensive and renewable. Malaysia's ability to produce and consistently export a large quantity of high quality palm oil has made it one of the major vegetable oil exporters in the world. By-products and waste from the palm oil mills are generated in significant amounts and mainly consist of empty fruit bunches, oil palm stone, oil palm shell, palm kernel cake and palm oil mill effluent. Some of this waste is currently used as fuel for boilers with low energy efficiency, as a soil conditioner, or in furniture making. There is a significant interest in recovering energy from oil palm shells and extensive research has been carried out in this area in other studies. However, research on energy production from oil palm stone (OPS) and palm kernel cake (PKC) is very limited. Waste from the oil palm industry, especially OPS and PKC, is abundant and could help to meet the energy demand if properly managed. The main objective of this PhD study was to investigate the main characteristics of the thermo-chemical conversion of OPS and PKC. A series of combustion and pyrolysis tests were carried out using OPS and PKC as the raw materials in fixed bed and pilot-scale fluidised bed reactors. In addition, the FLIC modelling code was used to predict key parameters including theoretical solid temperature and gas composition, and to validate the experimental results from fixed bed combustion tests. Pelletisation was also carried out on PKC due to the loose nature and small size of the particles. In the series of pyrolysis tests using OPS and PKC carried out in a fixed bed reactor, the effects of heating rate at the temperature of 700°C on the yields and properties of the pyrolysis products were investigated. The calorific values of the chars obtained from the OPS and PKC were approximately 28 MJ/kg. The properties of the chars produced were similar to bituminous coal in terms of their calorific value and carbon content. The pyrolysis liquids obtained from the OPS and PKC had calorific values of 21-38 MJ/kg. The pyrolysis liquids obtained from OPS were in the form of a homogeneous liquid, whilst that derived from PKC contained more than half as an aqueous fraction. The results from the fixed bed combustion tests showed that the burning rates increased with an increase in the air flow rate. In addition, results from the FLIC code used to simulate the fixed bed combustion of the oil palm stone showed good agreement with the experimental data in terms of predicting the dynamic temperature profiles along the bed height and the flue gas composition. The effect of primary air flowrate and initial bed temperature were the main parameters investigated in the pilot-scale fluidised bed combustion tests. Both the internal temperature and the surface temperature were found to decrease as the primary air flowrate increased. In all tests CO emissions were less than 0.2%. The emissions of SO2 and HCl ranged from 0.02 ppm to 0.05 ppm, significantly below the levels set by legislation. Stable combustion was observed at a bed temperature of 950°C. The most abundant elements found in the ash were Al, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, P, S and Si. The variables explored in the pelletisation of PKC were pressure, temperature, fuel moisture content and the effect of binders, which all had significant effects on density and tensile strength. The most favourable conditions for pellet production were found to be a pressure of 9338 psi/64.38 MPa, a temperature of 80-100°C and a fuel moisture content of 7.9%. These pellets had densities of 1184-1226 kg/m3 and tensile strengths of 930-1007 kPa. Adding small amounts of caustic soda (1.5-2.0wt %) to the PKC under these conditions increased the tensile strength to 3055 kPa, whereas starch additives were not found to be effective binders.

Abstract:
With a rapidly growing world population, the demand for palm oil is increasing. In 2010, palm oil accounted for 36.5% of the world's vegetable oil production and it is projected to be the leading vegetable oil in the world by 2016. The Malaysian palm oil industry is committed to delivering sustainable palm oil products to its customers. This is being achieved through the establishment of a roadmap identifying strategies and action plans that are priorities for 2009 to 2020. These include the implementation of IS014001 (Environment Management Systems), since 2004, and IS014040 (Life Cycle Assessment), since 2006. The implementation of carbon footprint labelling is currently being carried out as part of continuous improvements for the delivery of sustainable palm oil. The aim of this research was to investigate tools and methods that might be used in the delivery of sustainable Malaysian palm oil. Interviews based on a semi- structured questionnaire were used to identify current practices in the Malaysian palm oil industry. Results from the interviews highlighted the importance of IS014001 and IS014040 implementations in the delivery of sustainable palm oil. Case studies related to IS014001 and IS014040 were used to derive stakeholder needs for sustainable palm oil. These informed the creation of a supply network map that was used to visualisethe Malaysian palm oil industry and the extent of current IS014001 and IS014040 implementations. It was found that neither IS014001 nor ISO 14040 were implemented across the whole supply network. The supply network map was used to frame simulations of parts of the Malaysian palm oil industry system, namely, the plantation, mill and mill-refinery. Early results indicated that computer simulations could be a valuable tool that would complement existing methods such as Environmental Management Systems and Life Cycle Assessment. Simulation models could be populated with real-world data and used to inform policies for Malaysian palm oil production. For better traceability of decision making, considerations would need to be given to the identification of system boundaries, simulation parameters related to stakeholder needs, the capture of operating environments, and risks and uncertainties in the validation of models.

There is a current lack of visibility in the transfer of goods from farmers to oil mills, to manufacturers, to retail outlets and finally to the consumer in the palm oil industry. While leading brands have pledged to commit to a 100% sustainable certification, only 19% of global palm oil production is certified as sustainable. Emerging technologies, such as blockchain, a distributed ledger, can transform supply chain traceability as we know it and bring more transparency through the value chain, creating value to stakeholders. From a process perspective, the proposed solution leverages the mass balance, and book and claim traceability models that RSPO has defined. From a technology perspective, the proposed solution leverages blockchain, geospatial imagery classification, and IoT technologies to keep track of the flow of physical goods and sustainable palm oil certificates. From a people perspective, the proposed solution includes a set of incentive models that could be utilized in easing change management efforts.

Abstract:
Palm oil is an extremely versatile oil that has many different properties and functions that makes it so useful and widely used. It is an incredibly efficient crop that produces more oil per land area than any other equivalent vegetable oil crop. Globally, palm oil supplies 40% of the world's vegetable oil demand on just under 6% of the land used to produce all vegetable oils (WWF). The production of certified sustainable palm oil (CSPO) and palm kernel (CSPK) has gain traction since 2008 and goes well with the demand of a more sustainable palm oil products. Nevertheless, oil palm is also subjected to being the cause of deforestation, destroying habitats of already endangered species and often with attendant labour and human rights abuses. These issues are generally grouped under 5 key areas namely land, emissions, exploitation, traceability, and food integrity. Sime Darby Plantation (SDP) is committed to address these issues and our commitments are aligned with the directives from various global sustainable palm oil agencies. SDP has also focused on R&D via GenomeSelectTM, Quality Management, Mechanisation and enhanced CPO quality as means to mitigate issues involving Sustainability.

Abstract:
Palm oil is the edible oil that is most produced worldwide, being led by Indonesia and followed by Malaysia.Crude palm oil is rich in minority components that give it unique nutritional properties, the most important are tocopherols, tocotrienols and carotenoids; it typically has a low content of phospholipids and metals, but a high content of free fatty acids, in a range between 3 and 6%, having values close to 8% in rainy seasons, when the fruits overripe, increasing this value. Although palm oil typically has low metal content, it is important to pay attention to the Fe and Cu content.The deterioration of bleachability index (DOBI) is a good indicator to assess the quality of crude palm oil and will give us an idea of how easy or difficult it will be to refine it.Other important aspects regarding the quality of crude palm oil that also must be considered and affect the refining process are mistreatment while handling the fruit, storage, transportation, etc.Palm oil is generally refined by the physical process, which is preferred over the chemical process.Physical refining is a process in which phospholipids and metals (Fe and Cu) are attacked in two ways: the first, the most popular, is dry pretreatment with acid followed by bleaching step using neutral or acid bleaching earths; the second way is the wet pretreatment adding the acid and separating the chelates by centrifugation with wash water.The subsequent process is deodorization or physical refining in which the fatty acids and color compounds are separated from the oil, under controlled temperature and vacuum conditions.This presentation wants to show you how these processes are carried out with industrial data and how this oil goes from crude grade to food grade, complying with the necessary quality standards.

Full text
Abstract:
High oleic palm oil (HOPO) is the result of an agricultural innovation. A non-GMO palm, more resistant to diseases such as bud rot, with a higher oil yield per area than E.guineensis palm, was obtained. Its oil is mostly unsaturated; its oleic acid content is 10-15% higher compared to African palm oil. It has a higher content of beta-carotene (pro-vitamin A) and natural antioxidants such as tocotrienols and tocopherols (Vitamin E).HOPO can be refined by a special process that allows the oil to retain most of the nutritional components that are present in the crude oil. A refined red colored oil is obtained, with high beta-carotene and vitamins content, which can be fractionated to produce red oleins and stearins, for various applications where its color and nutritional value can be exploited.The objective of this conference is to share our experience in the use and commercialization of HOPO, highlighting its advantages in the formulation of edible oils and in industrial applications.High oleic red palm olein can be used as a cooking oil in households, imparting a pleasant reddish-gold color to food. Both red olein and stearin can be used in the production of baked goods, allowing these foods to retain part of the vitamins given by the oil, and as a source of natural beta-carotene.Traditionally refined high oleic palm olein, being more unsaturated than E. guineensis palm olein, is more resistant to crystallization in cold climates, which allows it to replace imported seed oils in edible oil formulas. Industries that produce snacks and fried foods also use this oil due to its high resistance to oxidation and its lower content of saturated fatty acids than traditional palm olein, facilitating the production of shortenings reduced in saturated fat, which is increasingly required by different industries in Latin America.

Abstract:
Steam batch sterilization is favorably utilized by conventional palm oil mills in Malaysia. However, there are some disadvantages to using steam batch sterilization, including the fact that it takes a long time to complete the sterilizing process, and a huge amount of wastewater is released as palm oil mill effluent (POME). Besides, extraction by fruit press expeller requires a large number of nuts or seeds to produce a high yield, which is relatively expensive. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the capability of microwave sterilization and the Soxhlet extraction (solvent extraction) process as an alternative to the conventional method. The impact of various microwave power levels of 400, 600, and 800 W and water ratios of 0, 50, and 100 mL on oil yield and carotenoids value of microwave-sterilized oil palm mesocarp are also investigated. Microwave sterilization and Soxhlet extraction have been employed as a replacement for the conventional method of extracting a higher yield of palm oil mesocarp in order to fill the gap by the previous research, which applied two methods: microwave sterilization (power level) and extraction. Then, carotenoid value analysis with a UV spectrophotometer is utilized to examine the outcomes in order to demonstrate the efficacy of the method. As a result, a high oil yield and carotenoid value are produced, which is 59.31% at 800W with the absence of water (0 mL) and a carotenoid value of 757 ppm at 400W (0 mL), respectively. Meanwhile, other carotenoid values at different microwave power levels and water ratios are still within the acceptable range as per the commercial crude palm oil standard.

Abstract. Oil extraction rate (OER) is essential in measuring palm oil mills' performance and competence. One of the attempts to achieving high OER is exploring the possibility of recovering residual oil from palm oil mill effluent (POME). A recent technique called progressive freezing (PF) has been proposed to reclaim the residual oil from POME, forming a block of solid oil in the system. This article focuses on evaluating the quality of the recovered oil through its physicochemical characterization (free fatty acid (FFA), deterioration of bleachability (DOBI), moisture content and dirt analysis) before deciding on the subsequent usage or suitable treatment if needed. The results show that the residual oil contained 25 to 27% free fatty acid (FFA), 1.01 to 2.02% moisture content, 0.049 to 0.055 dirt and had deterioration of bleachability (DOBI) between 2.3 to 2.7. The recovered oil had been proposed to be suitable for recycle or utilization as a value-added product such as biodiesel production.

Abstract:
Oil palm is the most important export crop in Ghana, aside from cocoa. Compared with cocoa, however, oil palm has a more extensive local value chain, including greater opportunity for local industrial and artisanal processing into palm oil and other products, which creates a high potential for employment generation and poverty reduction; as a result oil palm is classified as a priority crop. The selection of oil palm as a priority crop aims to promote agricultural commercialisation through domestic agroindustry development and exports. In spite of this, the oil palm economy has still not achieved its potential, and this begs the question, why? Although it is known in general that commercialisation potential and its benefits are not equally distributed across groups, it is not clear how and why different subgroups (women, men, youth) might benefit differently from the oil palm economy. This brief addresses why different groups of smallholders (women, men, youth) benefit unequally from oil palm value chains, and how returns to oil palm production and marketing could become more inclusive.

Abstract:
This paper is concerned with the multiple opportunities and challenges of artisanal palm oil processing and the potential multiplier effects on local economies. It examines the effect of the presence of large oil palm plantations and their industrial processing mills on artisanal palm oil processing in two districts in the Western region of Ghana. Although artisanal and industrial processors have co-existed for a long time in the same catchment areas, little is known about the impact of this relationship on artisanal processing. Acknowledging the importance of rural diversity, complexity, and difference in agriculture-based off-farm activities, this paper also examines the effect of community and household level factors on palm oil processing incidence and intensity as well as the impact of processing on food (in)security.

Abstract:
Across Ghana, mixed-crop-livestock enterprises dominate the farming systems with most farmers producing both food staples and non-food cash crops. However, this paper focuses mainly on oil palm-producing farmers because oil palm is Ghana’s second most important industrial crop (aside from cocoa). However, it has a more extensive local value chain that allows for artisanal processing and thus, has huge potential for rural employment generation and poverty reduction. Oil palm is also one of the priority crops under Ghana’s Food and Agriculture Sector Development Policy. This paper reviews the livelihood outcomes with regards to agricultural commercialisation and how this particularly relates to women’s empowerment and rural employment in the oil palm sector in Ghana.

Abstract:
Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) is of strategic importance to the Ghanaian economy. It is the second most important industrial crop after cocoa and is used widely in local food preparation as well as in industrial processing. In spite of its importance, however, oil palm has consistently underperformed since the early twentieth century. This paper conducts a value chain analysis of the crop, foregrounding the political economy factors that shape the performance of the sector. It draws on a combination of in-depth interviews conducted in March 2020 with a variety of value chain actors and a review of the secondary literature. Additionally, between late May and early June 2020, twelve further interviews were conducted as part of a rapid market survey to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the value chain.
