Abu terbang sawit (POFA) merupakan salah satu limbah padat yang dihasilkan dari pembakaran cangkang dan sabut sawit sebagai pembangkit uap untuk konsumsi pabrik sawit. POFA memiliki kandungan silika yang tinggi dan berpotensi digunakan sebagai adsorben. Penghilangan logam pengotor dan pemisahan SiO2 dengan proses ekstraksi merupakan solusi untuk meningkatkan kinerja silika. Proses ektraksi dipengaruhi oleh beberapa faktor diantaranya adalah rasio padat/cair dan waktu pengadukan. Penelitian ini menggunakan rasio padat/cair 1:8, 1:10, 1:12 dan waktu pengadukan 120; 150; 180; dan 210 menit. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan massa endapan silika terbanyak pada rasio 1:12 dan waktu pengadukan 210 menit dengan massa sebanyak 18,35 gram atau 73,4% dari 25 gram POFA dengan kadar silika 47,97% dan luas permukaan silika sebesar 8,18 m2/g. Silika dari setiap variasi diujikan pada air gambut. Efisiensi penyisihan warna, zat organik, dan Fe tertinggi terdapat pada silika hasil ekstraksi dengan rasio padat/cair 1:12 dan waktu pengadukan 210 menit yaitu sebesar 80%, 46%, dan 37%.

Recycle aluminium has been mixed with palm oil fly ash based on fraction weight of overall weight of palm oil fly ashes to aluminium recycle. The ratios discussed on this paper are 0%, 3% 6%, 9%, 12% and 15%. The samples have been developed via sand casting method. The result shows that the best composition has been achieved when we added 3% of palm oil fly ashes, with the new composite aluminum have a highest hardness with the value of 119.7HV, with the Modulus of raptured of 7.71Mkg/m2

In sustainable asphalt pavement construction, the proper selection of materials can be a challenging task. This paper focuses on a newly developed asphalt modifier named calcium carbonate (CaCO3) combined with Treated Palm Oil Fly Ash (TPOFA) to improve the properties of asphalt mastic. The rheological properties of mastic in terms of penetration, softening point, rotational viscosity and Superpave rutting factor using 60/70 asphalt binder blended with 5, 10, 15, 20 % of CaCO3+TPOFA were calculated to evaluate asphalt binder properties subjected to different aging conditions. The rotational viscometer (RV) was used to evaluate the properties of mastic at test temperatures from 120°C to 170°C. The dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) was used in temperature sweep test from 46°C to 82°C at 6°C increments at 10 rad/sec frequency to measure the G*, δ and Superpave rutting factor G*/sinδ. A one-way ANOVA statistical analysis was used to analyze the results .The test results showed that all asphalt mastic exhibited higher viscosity compared to the base binder. The addition of CaCO3 +TPOFA increased the G* but reduced the phase angle which indicated improved stiffness of asphalt mastic. Hence, incorporating CaCO3+TPOFA can potentially improve the rutting resistance of asphalt mastic.

This research was designed to synthesize a composite catalyst of palm oil fly ash-impregnated calcium oxide prepared from eggshell waste. Several preparation conditions, such as temperature and time applied to calcination and dehydration processes, were investigated. As a result, the optimum temperature and the length of time of calcination were 900 °C and 3 h, respectively. Meanwhile, the dehydration process was performed optimally at 600 °C for 3 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicate that the obtained catalyst mostly contained calcium oxide compounds (CaO and Ca(OH)2) and minor impurities of silica oxides (SiO2 and Ca2SiO4), with a catalyst-specific surface area of 30.24 m2/g. Regarding its catalytic performance, the composite catalyst proved successful for prospective application the in transesterification of palm oil off-grade, resulting in methyl palmitate and methyl oleate, which are two biodiesel compounds.

Palm oil fly ash (POFA) as solid waste produced from crude palm oil industries consist of quite high of silica (more than 50% w/w). This study aimed to compare the properties and morphology of thermoset natural rubber (TNR) with POFA, silica, carbon black (CB), and mixture of POFA-CB fillers. The filler content used is 30 phr (per hundred rubbers). The process of making the compound was conducted by using a roll mill at room temperature and a maximum roll rotational speed of 20 rpm. Zinc oxide 5 phr, stearic acid 2 phr, mercaptodibenzothiazyldisulfide (MBTS) 0.6 phr, and Sulfur of 3 phr were used as curative agents. Trimethylquinone (TMQ) 1 phr was used as an antioxidant. Commercial minarex 2.5 phr was used as a plasticizer. Vulcanization process was carried out at a temperature of 150 °C and a pressure of 50 kg/cm2 using a hot press. Morphology was observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Measurement of tensile properties was carried out using universal testing machine (UTM) according to ASTM D412-06a standard. The results indicated that the use of POFA as a filler could potentially produce TNR with quite good morphology, tensile properties and water absorption properties. A mixture of POFA-CB with a mass ratio of 50/50 (w/w) produced the thermoset with the value of 18.5 MPa of tensile strength, 1600% of elongation at break, and 1.2 MPa of elastic modulus.
