TOKYO -- Japanese engineering giant JGC Holdings is teaming up with Indonesian state energy company Pertamina to turn methane generated in palm oil production into a biofuel.
Palm oil mill effluent collected from Indonesian plantations on the island of Sumatra and in Kalimantan will be fermented and refined to produce biomethane. Production is expected to begin in 2025 at an annual 10,000 tons, with plans to boost it to 100,000 tons by 2030.
