Biomicrogel BMG-C4 and Biomicrogel BMG-SPO increase production efficiency with substantial waste reduction·
Positively impacts environment by reducing oil losses in palm oil mill effluent (POME), decreasing water consumption up to 50%, and enhancing oil recovery KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 15 (Bernama) -- Biomicrogels Group, a leading provider in advanced palm oil technologies, is announcing the successful implementation of two ground-breaking products, Biomicrogel BMG-C4 and Biomicrogel BMG-SPO, in palm oil factories across Malaysia.
Together with BMG preparation and dosing station, these products form a single solution that easily integrates into the technological process and positively impacts oil extraction by significantly increasing productivity, reducing losses, and improving economic viability. Notably, the biodegradability of Biomicrogel BMG-C4 and Biomicrogel BMG-SPO reinforces the company’s commitment to sustainable practices.
Biomicrogel BMG-C4, a 100% natural product derived from modified food-grade cellulose, has proved to be a game-changer in the field. Designed for separating vegetable oils from solid particles and water, it increases oil extraction during production. By utilising Biomicrogel BMG-C4, companies can optimise each stage of oil extraction – from the clarification tank to centrifugation processes – ensuring maximum oil separation from crushed particles and water.
Alongside this, Biomicrogel BMG-SPO, a cutting-edge sludge palm oil (SPO) extraction product, has proven to deliver remarkable performance improvements. It significantly increases extraction productivity by 100%, increases oil extraction by 25-36%, reduces moisture content in SPO from 16% to less than 1% and decreases water consumption by 300%. Equipped with Biomicrogel BMG-SPO, companies can extract more and higher quality SPO in half the time without additional equipment.
Igor Temirov, Business Development Director of Biomicrogels Group, said: "Our products have been developed to optimise existing palm oil extraction processes that have remained relatively unchanged for the last 50 years. Our products work at all the stages of the production process in the mills, by increasing the extraction of palm oil, reducing the extraction time, and minimising losses and water consumption. When considering these combined benefits, mills can expect to add more than USD$500,000 annually to their operating profit.”
Biomicrogels Group has accumulated significant expertise in the palm oil production field, providing engineers for consultations at all stages of cooperation. This support extends to collecting and analysing technological data, installation and commissioning works, optimisation parameters, and post-warranty service.
Palm oil production plays a vital role in the Malaysian economy. Malaysia is the world’s second largest palm oil producer and exporter, accounting for 55% of global palm oil exports
* and operates over 450 mills. Proven to deliver substantial results, products of Biomicrogels Group have already been successfully implemented in palm oil factories across neighbouring countries. The real-world benefits demonstrated include increased production efficiency and substantial waste reduction. Additionally, Biomicrogels Group has contributed positively to the factories' environmental footprint.
Furthermore, Biomicrogels Group has been recognised in the cleantech sector at the G20 International Summit as the best among all participating countries. To highlight expanding influence, the BMG Group has signed contracts with three distributors and has been accelerating container deliveries to Malaysia.
Igor Temirov continued: "The major issues faced by palm oil factories in Malaysia are boosting the OER (oil extraction rate), reducing losses and reducing waste. We've focused our efforts on addressing these problems. After intense research and numerous trials, we've found success with our products, which have shown significant results in increasing the OER by 5-15% and reducing losses."
Products of Biomicrogels Group are perfectly positioned to address specific challenges palm oil factories face in Malaysia, bringing transformative improvements to traditional oil extraction processes. Biomicrogels Group aims to drive the future of the oil industry, offering significant advantages in efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability.
Khairol Annuar Mohd Ali, Senior Manager at
HB Laboratories, said: "At HB Labs, we're at the forefront of produced water treatment for offshore oil drilling platforms, specialising in separating oil from water before discharge into the sea. Leveraging our expertise, we extended our focus to palm oil mill effluent. We achieved exceptional results through rigorous testing and the development of our specialised equipment, High Efficiency Recovery Oil (HERO). However, when we integrated BMG, we witnessed a remarkable increase in oil extraction and moisture reduction. This success enabled us to secure long-term contracts with major clients in Malaysia."
While Biomicrogels Group primarily focuses on efficiency and profitability, it also recognises the importance of aligning with sustainable practices and ESG goals. The company's offerings reflect this commitment by reducing oil losses in palm oil mill effluent (POME), decreasing water consumption up to 50% in production, and enhancing oil recovery.
