Abstract

In this study, the potential of biomass, which is generated from oil palm cultivation and crude palm oil (CPO) production of Indonesia was assessed in the aspect of energy content. The types of oil palm biomass were classified on the basis of the cultivation stage and the CPO production stage. In the cultivation stage, biomass is considered to be produced from its' root, trunk and frond. Other possible biomass resources such as empty fruit bunch (EFB), palm kernel shell (PKS) and fiber were included in the CPO production stage. As results, total biomass from damaged plantation area of Indonesia was estimated to be annually from 3 million to 16 million tons in 2011. From CPO mills, approximately 49 million tons/yr of biomass residues were estimated to be annually occurred. Their total energy content from each biomass source in cultivation stage was analyzed to be from 593,000 to 3,197,000 TOEs in terms of gross calorific value. In the case of CPO mills, around 22.7 million TOEs was estimated to be potential energy producible by biomass based on gross calorific value of dry basis. If moisture content considered, net calorific value was analyzed to be decreased to 16.3 million TOEs. Based on the results, the total energy contents of all oil palm biomass were estimated to be up to 25,919,000 TOE in terms of gross calorific value. CPO : Crude Palm Oil, EFB : Empty Fruit Bunch, FFB: Fresh Fruit Bunch, PKS : Palm Kernel Shell, OPF : Oil Palm Frond, PKOC : Palm Kernel Oil Cake, ISPO : Indonesia Sustainable Palm Oil Commission, TOE : Tone of Oil Equivalent.

본 연구에서는 인도네시아 오일 팜 재배 및 CPO 생산 공정으로부터 발생되는 바이오매스의 에너지 이용 가능성을 조사하기 위하여 오일 팜 플렌테이션에서 발생하는 바이오매스의 잠재성을 분석하였다. 인도네시아의 오일 팜 재배 면적은 2011년 8.9 백만 ha에 달하고 있으며, 2020년까지 13 백만 ha로 확대될 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구에서는 2011년 면적을 기준으로 하였으며, 바이오매스의 분석은 오일 팜 재배 시에 발생되는 바이오매스와 CPO 생산 공정 중 발생하는 바이오매스 부산물의 양으로 단계를 구분하여 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과로 2011년 오일 팜 재배 과정에서 발생하는 바이오매스는 줄기, 가지, 뿌리를 포함하여 최소 3 백만 ton에서 최대 16 백만 ton에 이를 것으로 분석되었으며, CPO 제조 공정에서는 건조 중량 기준 49 백만 ton이 발생하는 것으로 분석되었다. 이것을 건조 기준 고위발열량으로 환산을 할 경우, 593 천 TOE에서 3,197 천 TOE의 에너지가 발생하며, CPO 제조 공정 중 발생하는 바이오매스는 건조중량 기준 48,914 천 ton이 발생하는 것으로 추정되며, 바이오매스 부산물의 에너지량은 고위발열량 기준 22,722 천 TOE, 저위발열량 기준으로 16,330 천 TOE가 발생하는 것으로 추정되었다. 따라서, 2011년 인도네시아의 오일 팜 재배와 CPO 생산으로부터 고위 발열량 기준으로 25,919 천 TOE의 오일 팜 바이오매스 부산물이 발생한 것으로 분석되었다.
