The increasing of palm oil mills as a result of an increase in public interest of land exploitation to produce  palm oil can cause high environmental pollution if the waste oil generated were not managed properly. Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) is the wastewater generated by palm oil extraction process. On the other hand, POME is a renewable energy source. To address the need for electrical energy increases, the monitoring of POME is an effort that needs to be studied because POME is no longer a pollutant to the environment but a helpful resource.This study uses field data collection in the form of POME volume and treatment plant process management to determine the COD levels so that the estimation of total biogas can be done. Based on the calculation of the energy potential of POME in Jambi province with  processing capacity of the entire Province amounted to 1,230 tons FFB / hour, 20 hours operating time / day and COD content of 50,000 mg / L, the amount of energy can be obtained is 737.712 MWh / day or 269.26 GWh / Year.Keywords: POME, biogas, energy

ABSTRAKEnergi  memiliki  peranan penting dalam proses pembangunan yang pada akhirnya untuk mencapai tujuan sosial,  ekonomi  dan  lingkungan  untuk  serta  merupakan  pendukung bagi kegiatan  ekonomi  nasional. Sumber energi terbarukan yang berasal dari pemanfaatan biogas limbah cair kelapa sawit dapat menghasilkan energi listrik yang saat ini banyak bergantung pada generator diesel dengan biaya yang mahal.Limbah cair kelapa sawit (Palm Oil Mill Effluent atau POME) adalah limbah cair yang berminyak dan tidak beracun, berasal dari proses pengolahan minyak kelapa sawit, namun limbah cair tersebut dapat menyebabkan bencana lingkungan apabila tidak dimanfaatkan dan dibuang di kolam terbuka karena akan melepaskan sejumlah besar gas metana dan gas berbahaya lainnya ke udara yang menyebabkan terjadinya emisi gas rumah kaca. Tingginya kandungan Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) sebesar 50.000-70.000 mg/l dalam limbah cair kelapa sawit memberikan potensi untuk dapat di konversi menjadi listrik dengan menangkap biogas (gas metana) yang dihasilkan melalui serangkaian tahapan proses pemurnian. Di Kabupaten Kotawaringin Timur terdapat 36 Pabrik Pengolahan Kelapa Sawit yang total kapasitas pabriknya adalah sebesar 2.115 TBS/jam, menghasilkan limbah cair sebesar 1.269 ton limbah cari/jam dan mampu menghasilkan 42.300 m3 biogas.Kata kunci:  Renewable Energy, Plam Oil Mill Effluent, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Biogass, Methane. ABSTRACTEnergy has an important role in the development process and ultimately to achieve the objectives of social, economic and environment for as well as an environmental support for national economic activity. Renewable energy source derived from wastewater biogas utilization of oil palm can produce electrical energy which is currently heavily dependent on diesel generators at a cost that mahal.Limbah liquid palm oil (Palm Oil Mill Effluent, or POME) is the wastewater that is greasy and non-toxic, derived from the processing of palm oil, but the liquid waste could cause environmental disaster if not used and disposed of in open ponds because it will release large amounts of methane and other harmful gases into the air that cause greenhouse gas emissions. The high content of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) of 50000-70000 mg / l in the liquid waste palm oil provides the potential to be converted into electricity by capturing the biogas (methane gas) produced through a series of stages of the purification process. In East Kotawaringin there are 36 palm oil processing factory that total factory capacity is of 2,115 TBS / hour, producing 1,269 tons of liquid waste wastewater / h and is capable of producing 42,300 m3 of biogas.Keywords:  Renewable Energy, Plam Oil Mill Effluent, Chemical Oxygen Demand, Biogass, MethaneCara sitasi: Alkusma, Y.M., Hermawan, dan Hadiyanto.

Industri minyak sawit mempunyai impak yang besar ke atas alam sekitar. Efluen kilang minyak sawit (dikenali juga sebagai palm oil mill effluent, POME) merupakan buangan cecair yang terdiri daripada sebatian organik yang berasal daripada bahan bolehurai dan sedia direput oleh miroorganisma aerobik dan juga anarobik. Teknologi rawatan POME masa kini banyak bertumpu kepada kaedah biologis. Proses–proses ini memerlukan keluasan tanah yang besar dan tidak menjamin pencapaian had discas yang dibenarkan[1]. Kertas ini menghuraikan satu kajian mengenai potensi kegunaan teknologi membran untuk merawat POME dari kolam discas terakhir. Bahagian pertama kajian ini meneliti ciri–ciri beberapa kolam yang terdapat di loji rawatan air sisa POME yang sedia ada. Kajian membran pula melibatkan penggunaan membran gentian kosong dengan MWCO berjulat 30K hingga 100K. Data yang diperolehi menunjukkan bahawa membran yang mempunyai MWCO 100K menghasilkan fluks yang lebih tinggi daripada membran MWCO 30K, tetapi membran MWCO 30K memberi permeat yang kualitinya lebih baik. Kualiti permeat hasil daripada membran di atas berjaya menurunkan COD, SS, TKN dan nitrogen–amonia masing–masing sebanyak 97.66%, 98%, 53.85% dan 61.91%. Tetapi pemindahan warna memerlukan rawatan tambahan. Kata kunci: Membran, penurasan-ultra, POME, rawatan sisa The palm oil industry has a significant impact on the environment. Palm oil mill effluent (POME), which is the liquid discharge, comprises of mainly organic compounds originating from biodegradable materials and is readily decomposed by anaerobic, and aerobic microorganisms. The current treatment technology of POME is largely biological in nature. These processes require large acreage of land and do not always achieve the discharge limits [1]. This paper describes a study on the potential use of membrane technology to treat POME from the final discharge pond. The first part of the study investigated the establishment of characteristics of the various ponds within the current POME wastewater treatment plant. The membrane study essentially used hollow fiber membrane of MWCO ranging from 30 to 100K. The results showed that the hollow fiber membrane with MWCO 100K gave higher fluxes compared to the MWCO 30K, however, the latter membrane gave better quality permeate. The quality of permeate achieved from the membrane with MWCO 30K gave reductions in COD, SS, TKN and ammoniacal–N of 97.66 %, 98 %, 53.85 % and 61.91 % respectively. However, color removal may require further treatment. Key words: Membrane, ultrfiltration, POME, waste treatment

Liquid waste from palm oil mill continues to grow concurrently with the increased production of palm oil in Indonesia. Technical processing of palm oil mill effluent using anaerobic ponds are less efficient because it requires large area besides palm oil mill effluent produce greenhouse gases caused by carbon dioxide gases that are generated. Therefore we need another alternative technology such as electrocoagulation as advanced technology in processing wastewater effluent from an anaerobic column. Electrocoagulation is a wastewater treatment system that is capable of eliminating pollutants and produce hydrogen gas simultaneously as revenue to offset operating costs. This study aims to determine the effect and the best inter electrode distance to reduce pollutant parameters such as chemical oxygen demand, total solids and total suspended solids. The type of electrode material used is aluminum, the reactor dimensions 12 cm x 12 cm x 36 cm with 3 hours of operating time, voltage 10 volts, variations of inter electrode distance 0.5 cm; 1.0 cm; 1.5 cm and 2.0 cm. Samples were taken from palm oil mill PT. PP London Sumatra in Bagerpang, Tanjung Morawa. The results obtained by the percentage reduction in COD, TSS TS and the highest was 72.897% at 1.0 cm; 67.292% at 1.5 cm and 96.429% at 1.5 cm. Best distance between the electrodes was 1.5 cm.
