As a reliable Palm Oil Export Malaysia partner, we also serve as a trusted Palm Oil Supplier Johor and Vegetable Oil Supplier Johor, ensuring consistent supply and quality to our clients.
Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME)
Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is a wastewater or sludge generated during the palm oil production process by a Palm Oil Company Malaysia, where it floats at the top of POME ponds.
This wastewater is released into a system of ponds (POME ponds) to remove solids, oil, and grease through aerobic treatment before the treated water is discharged into waterways, forming part of the overall Palm Oil Products Malaysia processing cycle.
The small oil portion contained in the wastewater (POME oil) settles on top of the POME pond and can be extracted (skimmed off) and used as feedstock for biofuel production, contributing to sustainable resource utilization within the Palm Oil Export Malaysia supply chain.
POME oil has not been used in significant volumes in the past due to the economic challenges associated with high extraction, logistics, and processing costs. Historically, POME oil has mainly been used in the soap industry.
EU Commission directives encourages the development of bioenergy sources and have defined that feedstock that are eligible for special rebates in Europe.
The development of POME oil is in keeping with the sustainability principles of ISCC, and is qualified as waste under ISCC. According to Art. 3 (1) of EU Waste Framework Directive (WFD), waste is defined as:
- Any substances or object which the manufacturer discards or intends or is required to be discarded.
- Raw materials or substances that is not intentionally produced, modified or contaminated.
Advanced Biofuel Renewable Energy Directives RED II Annex IX of 2018 now includes Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) as a suitable feedstock for Biofuels.
Used Cooking Oils (UCO)
Used Cooking Oils (UCOs) are oils and fats that have been used for cooking or frying in the food processing industry, restaurants, fast food outlets, and households. Within the broader Palm Oil Products Malaysia ecosystem, UCO plays an important role as a recyclable feedstock for downstream industries.
