The Origins of Palm Acid Oil
The largest waste by-product generated during crude palm oil (CPO) production is palm oil mill effluent (POME). For every ton of CPO produced, approximately 2.9 tons of POME are generated. POME results from the large volumes of steam and hot water used to clean the fruit and separate the shell and cake from the palm fruit.
The water and steam are discharged on the mill floor and directed into waste ponds where POME residue collects. Once PAO is processed and extracted from POME, the remaining residue can be sold as feedstock for producing second-generation biofuels.
