Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Palm Oil with Methane Avoidance at Palm Oil Mill: A Case Study of Cradle-to-Gate Life Cycle AssessmentChiew Wei Puah, Yuen May Choo, Soon Hock OngThe study discusses a case study of cradle to gate life cycle assessment for the production of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) with methane avoidance at palm oil mill. The improved milling process enables total utilization of the oil palm fruit to produce alow oil palm based food source. The minimal modification in the mill includes cleaning of Fresh Fruit Bunches … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 9 Sep 2013 · 7,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent and Future Nanotech Applications in the Oil IndustryCocuzza Matteo, Pirri Candido, Rocca Vera, Verga FrancescaProblem statement: Nanotech applications in the oil industry are not completely new: nanoparticles have been successfully used in drilling muds for the past 50 years. Only recently all the other key areas of the oil industry, such as exploration, primary and assisted production, monitoring, refining and distribution, are approaching nanotechnologies as the potential Philosopher's stone for facing critical issues related … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 13 Mar 2012 · 10,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Malaysia's Energy System: Some Preliminary ResultsAhmad Mohd. YusofProblem statement: The current dynamic and fragile world energy environment necessitates the development of new energy model that solely caters to analyze Malaysia’s energy scenarios. Approach: The model is a network flow model that traces the flow of energy carriers from its sources (import and mining) through some conversion and transformation processes for the production of energy products to final … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 9 · 13 Aug 2011 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethanol-Based Transesterification Optimization of Waste Used Cooking Oil over Potassium Hydroxide CatalystCholada Komintarachat, Sathaporn ChuepengProblem statement: Waste used Cooking Oil (WCO) harmfully affected to environment and human’s health can be a feedstock for producing biodiesel. Approach: The conversion of Fatty Acid and Free Fatty Acid (FFA) of WCO with 15.0% w/w FFA content to biodiesel was studied through transesterification reactions. This work investigated the effects of alcohol and catalyst quantity, reaction time and temperature … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 9,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Engines Development Using Compressed Natural Gas as an Alternative Fuel: A ReviewSemin, R. A. Bakar, A. R. IsmailProblem statement: The Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a gaseous form of natural gas, it have been recognized as one of the promising alternative fuel due to its substantial benefits compared to gasoline and diesel. Natural gas is produced from gas wells or tied in with crude oil production. Approach: Natural gas is promising alternative fuel to meet strict engine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Higher Sludge Recycling Rate on Anaerobic Treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent in a Semi-Commercial Closed Digester for Renewable EnergyAlawi Sulaiman, Zainuri Busu, Meisam Tabatabaei et al.Problem statement: A 500 m3 semi-commercial closed anaerobic digester was constructed for Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) treatment and methane gas capture for renewable energy. During the start-up operation period, the Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA) accumulation could not be controlled and caused instability on the system. Approach: A settling tank was installed and sludge was recycled as to provide a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Emissions from Flaring in Kuwait OilfieldsKhaireyah Kh. AL-Hamad, A. R. KhanKuwait is a major oil producing country and its economy directly depends on its export of crude and refined products. Kuwait Oil Company (KOC) is responsible for all exploration and production of crude oil in Kuwait. These activities result in the emission of gaseous pollutants to the atmosphere, particularly from the flaring of undesirable product and excess gases. For environmental … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Feb 2008 · 8,947 accessesView PDFCite
