Project Overview

High-efficiency biomass boiler utilizing EFB (Empty Fruit Bunches) and fibers, achieving a circular economy for the palm oil mill.

This project demonstrates our commitment to delivering high-efficiency, reliable heating solutions tailored to specific industrial needs. The system was designed to maximize energy efficiency while ensuring strict compliance with local environmental regulations.

Client Background

A large-scale palm oil plantation and processing mill in Sandakan, Malaysia. The extraction process generates huge amounts of Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) and palm fibers, which were previously treated as waste.

The Challenge

The mill relied on expensive diesel generators for electricity and steam, severely affecting profitability. They wanted to burn their waste EFB for energy, but EFB has high moisture and high alkali content, which causes fouling and slagging in standard boilers.

Our Solution

We designed a 20-ton SZL Biomass Boiler specifically for palm waste. It features a specialized reciprocating grate to handle the high moisture EFB and large furnace volume with membrane walls to control combustion temperature and prevent slagging. We also installed soot blowers to keep heating surfaces clean.

Key Outcomes

Allowed the mill to become self-sufficient in energy by replacing 100% of diesel fuel.
Saved approximately $1.5 million USD annually in fuel costs.
Solved the environmental headache of disposing of thousands of tons of EFB waste.
Specialized anti-slag design enabled continuous operation for 6 months without shutdown for cleaning.
