Comparison of technology between WET Technology and SPOT
High CAPEX. Difficult to Reach for Palm Oil Farmers.
PKS Production minimum 30 tons/hour.
Large area of Palm Oil plantation.
Must be near water sources, so the majority of palm oil mills
are very far from community Palm Oil plantation.
Transport costsTBS very High, because the
factory far from community area and these cost
are a expense on farmers costs.
The energy needed is large because it uses steam
and with high pressure.
The energy consumption required is very large
because it uses steam and with high pressure.
High Operating Costs (OPEX).
CPO Products Contain Chlorine which produces 3-
MCPDE and GE.
Liquid Waste Treatment Problems.
Generating greenhouse gases.
CAPEX is affordable for farmers.
PMTU Moduler Scale @ 10 Tons/Hour.
Does not require water.
Does not produce liquid waste.
Energy saving
The factory is in the middle of an palm oil
plantations so the transportation costs are low,
because PMTU is cultivated to be located in the
radius less than 25 km.
Lower pperational expense (OPEX) between
20-25%.
Shorter production process.
OER is 2-3% higher than Palm Oil Mills
Conventional.
