Biomicrogel® reagents
for palm oil extraction

It will help you to produce more CPO
and reduce losses without major capital investments

Increases OER more than 5%
Reduces oil losses more than 10%
Reduces water consumption up to 50%

Tasks to be solved

The process of producing palm oil has not changed in concept for the last 50 years.
The efficiency of the process can be improved due to:
Increased extraction crude palm oil (CPO)
Faster extraction in the clarifier
Reduced oil loss on exit from the clarifier
and reduced loss on entry to the decanter
Reduced water consumption in the crude palm oil tank (COT) by 50% or more
Reduced palm oil mill effluent (POME)
Low implementation and running costs

Operating principle

Biomicrogel® added to DCO forms a biopolymer nanolayer on the surface of suspended solids
in the sludge, speeds up oil extraction in the clarifier.
Negatively charged biopolymer molecules are attached to positively charged solid particles’ surface and repel droplets of oil.

Advantages

Biomicrogel® presents significant advantages for factories to increase productivity
without CAPEX investments and translates in attractive Economic Value Added effect.
Increases OER extraction
By 0.5-1.3 p.p. for CPO,
and 15 p.p. for SPO
Reduces
moisture content
From 17% to 0.9% in SPO
Does not affect
the quality of the oil
Or its characteristics
Works with temperatures
up to 100°C
Can be dissolved
in hot or cold water
Makes oil processing easier
Even for palm-kernel oil
Does not require
capital investments
Due to low implementation
and running costs
No changes required
in the mill’s existing workflow
Increases the prime cost
of processing
Implementing the BMG solution
will increase the prime cost
of processing 1 ton of FFB by just $2

Tests carried out

Before
After
Lab tests results – Sludge palm oil
Reagent used: Biomicrogel® BMG-С4
After one hour BMG extracts 28-40% more oil, and oil in sludge looks better separated from solid

Increased oil layer in COT sample by 100% 
after 75 minutes of settling
10 mm of oil in Underflow sample vs 5 mm 
in Control sample after 60 minutes of settling
