Abstract

The increase of palm oil production produced waste, which has an impact on the environmental burden. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to predict the amount of palm oil empty fruit bunches produced per month in Indonesia to determine the potential of empty fruit bunches management. The predicted amount of the waste is based on crude palm oil (CPO) forecasts analysis that is processed using exponential triple smoothing. Based on the analysis, it was obtained that the amount of waste of empty fruit bunches proved to be directly proportional to the crude palm oil production. The efficiency of mill operation plays an essential role in CPO production and waste generation. However, this study has less variance on empty fruit bunches production since that quantity derived directly from CPO forecasting results based on fresh fruit bunches processed in the mills. Based on the estimation quantity, the management of palm oil empty fruit bunch as a raw material of fertilizer is sufficient to manage the produced empty fruit bunch. The data can be used to consider the waste palm’s potential management in palm oil mills and national scope.

Highlights

  • The increase in the amount of organic waste caused by an increase in population, industry, and commercial increased the global environmental burden if not managed efficiently [1]

  • This article was conducted by calculating the predicted amount of Palm oil https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/202021105003 empty fruit bunches (POEFB) production every month based on crude palm oil (CPO) production from January 2016 – December 2018 in Indonesia

  • This article presents the monthly waste of palm oil empty fruit bunches conducted for five years based on the forecast of CPO production even though there are limited periods of data in quantity generated and limited model capabilities

Summary

Introduction

The increase in the amount of organic waste caused by an increase in population, industry, and commercial increased the global environmental burden if not managed efficiently [1]. It is imperative to change the concept of waste not as "waste" but as a “resource” that can be utilized and provide economic and social benefits, which is the concept of zero waste [2]. This concept is used in underlying this article to create. The utilization of waste-derived is broad-spectrum production strategies [3]. This approach minimizes reliance on non-renewable resources [4], provide a new source of renewable resource [5], and minimize the negative impact on the environment [6]
