80 ton/hr for Biomass EFB Palm Steam Boiler Malaysia

EFB (Empty Fruit Bunch) is the by-product from crude palm oil mill which having low economic value before more application being developed. While there is a large potential of transforming EFB into renewable energy resource that could meet the existing energy demand of palm oil mills or other industries in Malaysia. Actually a 80 ton/hr steam boiler can burn the EFB fiber for a biomass power station.

Biomass Availability - Oil Palm Fibre in Malaysia

In Malaysia, more and more forest or estate are converting to oil palm estate, research has study and showed that using oil palm fibre as biomass for biomass power plant is not only feasible but also practically success.

In year 2009, Malaysia has produced 17.56 million tonnes of crude palm oil and this lead to almost 90 million tones of EFB that yet to further disposal. EFB will be shredded and become one of the major sources for biomass power plant in the country. Until EFB fibre can reach other economic value, we foresee there are still rooms for Malaysia company converting existing fossil fuel power plant to biomass power plant, however the transportation network need to further establish.
