Pak Tatang, Holland dan Rekans,
Bagaimana nich, koq Indonesia kalah dengan Vietnam ? yang telah
berhasil mengembangkan biodiesel dari ban ban bekas ?
Atau telah ada teknologinya sehingga di Indonesia pun bisa langsung mulai ?
Apakah di Vietnam telah dihitung kelayakannya ? dan ternyata ekonomis ?
Bedanya dengan pabrik dan campuran untuk bahan baku dari CPO, Jarak
maupun biji karet apa saja ?
Salam,
Zaenal

Vietnam to Recycle Waste Rubber into Industrial Oil Soon
The Vietnam Institute for Building Materials under the Ministry of
Construction has recently succeeded in a project to recycle waster
rubber into industrial oil, the Kinh Te Viet Nam & The Gioi
newspaper reported on June 6.
The project used initial raw materials including waste tyre and tube
of bikes, motorbikes and autos to recycle into industrial oil, said
Dr. Mai Ngoc Tam, one of the research group.
Tam said one kilogram of rubber worth VND1,500 ($0.09) is estimated
to be converted to 0.4 tael of oil priced at VND5,000 ($0.31) per
liter, adding that heat from pyrolytic oil of 10Kcal/kg is much
higher than that from both diesel oil (DO) and fuel oil (FO).
According to the Vietnam Institute of Tropical Technology and
Environment Protection (VITTEP), emissions of the pyrolytic oil will
not cause air pollution.
Saigon Environment, Energy Technology Joint Stock Company is now
producing pyrolytic oil by a production line using 200 kg of waste
rubber/hour.
Vietnam is also preparing for bio-diesel oil production from sesame
in order to substitute imported diesel oil (DO), which is becoming scarce.
Without major oil refineries, Vietnam now has to import almost all
of petroleum products. The first oil refinery Dung Quat is under
construction in central Quang Ngai province with expected operation
in February of 2009.
The country is forecast to import $4.85 billion worth of 5.83
million metric tons of petroleum products in the first five months
of 2008, up 68.7% on year and 6.2%, respectively, the General
Statistics Office (GSO) said. (Vietnam & World Economy Jun 6 p5)
