ZOZEN Boiler Drives Biomass Energy Revolution in Indonesia: Palm Shell Fuel Sets New Industry Trend

06 May 2025

In Indonesia, a tropical country in Southeast Asia, palm shells have become a popular choice as biomass boiler fuel. Leveraging its extensive experience in biomass energy utilization, ZOZEN Boiler offers highly customized solutions for the Indonesian market. Our biomass boilers, fueled by palm shells, are widely used in industries such as oil & fats, rubber, animal feed, paper, and food processing, providing these sectors with a stable and reliable energy supply.

Characteristics of Palm Shells and Combustion Precautions

Characteristics of Palm Shells and Combustion Precautions

Indonesia boasts vast palm plantations, notably in Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Papua provinces. Palm shells have the advantages of high calorific value, renewability, and low ash content, making them an ideal fuel for boilers. However, when burning palm shells, it is important to control the combustion temperature to prevent equipment damage caused by overheating. Attention should also be paid to cleaning during the combustion process to ensure the long-term stable operation of the boiler.

 

Palm Shells as Biomass Boiler Fuel

This is especially true in the oil & fats industry, where palm oil producers use the palm shells generated during production as boiler fuel. The steam produced by the biomass boiler is then reused on the production line, achieving resource recycling.

ZOZEN Biomass Boilers: Diverse Choices to Meet Different Needs

ZOZEN Boiler excels in meeting clients’ specific requirements. We not only consider the type and characteristics of the fuel, but also take into account the client’s production scale, combustion needs, and environmental protection requirements, offering efficient and reliable boiler equipment and services.

 

Our experience in the Indonesian market shows that 10-15 ton biomass boilers are particularly popular. For needs below 15 tons, the SZL series biomass steam boiler is the ideal choice, while for applications above 15 tons, the three-drum non-coking biomass boiler is more suitable. Both types of boilers offer broad fuel adaptability, complete combustion, high thermal efficiency, and easy operation, flexibly meeting the varied requirements of different clients.

It is worth noting that ZOZEN biomass boilers are equipped with both primary and secondary air systems. The primary air system supplies necessary oxygen for combustion, while the secondary air system, by recirculating flue gas after combustion, effectively extends combustion time, improves efficiency, and significantly reduces nitrogen oxide emissions, achieving cleaner and more efficient energy use.
