Glycerine pitch from glycerine concentration process as alternative fuel for boiler operations
The usage of energy in world is increasing rapidly where the industries accounts 50% of world energy uses. Palm based oleo chemical are producing series of products such as fatty acid,methyl esters,fatty alcohols and glycerine which means that oil palm industries generate a number of wastes too and...

The usage of energy in world is increasing rapidly where the industries accounts 50% of world energy uses. Palm based oleo chemical are producing series of products such as fatty acid,methyl esters,fatty alcohols and glycerine which means that oil palm industries generate a number of wastes too and the estimated oil palm waste contribute RM 6379 million of energy annually. Glycerine pitch has a calorific value of about 3300kcal/kg. This research is focused on utilizing energy in glycerine pitch by using it as fuel in boiler for both economical and environmental reason. Glycerine pitch is classified as a waste under Schedule S181 of the Environmental Regulations in Malaysia where the treated glycerine pitch is disposed in landfills.
