Celsius
and pressure of 3.1 bars, during 90 minutes.
2.1.3 Threshing
The sterilised FFB are sent to rotary drum threshers to separate the sterilised
fruits from the bunch stalks. The generated residues from this process
include empty fruit bunches (EFB) which contain moisture. EFB can be used
as organic fertiliser and soil conditioner as it maintains humidity of the soil.
It can be sold to local farmers for using as a substrate for mushroom cultivation.
Some mills introduce EFB pressing techniques to achieve lower moisture content
in the EFB, which can subsequently be used as biomass fuel in suitable boiler
systems for steam/electricity production.
2.1.4 Digestion
The separated fruits are discharged into vertical steam-jacketed drums
(digesters) and treated mechanically to convert them into a homogeneous oily
mash. Hot water is added to the digester to facilitate homogenisation.
This mash is subsequently put into the oil extraction press (screw press).
2.1.5 Screw Pressing
Screw pressing is a process to extract palm oil from mash. The extracted oil
phase is collected and discharged to the purification section while the solid
parts comprising fibre and nuts are separated by physical means.
This recovery process is further detailed in Section 2.1.8.
2.1.6 Oil Purification (Clarification and Drying)
The process of oil purification is divided into four (4) sub-processes during
which the suspended matter is dissociated from the raw crude oil.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
2-3
Vibrating Screen of Raw Crude Oil
Screening of raw crude oil is carried out in order to separate large size of
solids such as dirt, fibres and fragments of the pericarps from the liquid phase.
Water is added to the raw oil and passed through a vibrating screen (Johnson-
Screen or Sweco-Screen) in order to improve the separation process. After
sieving, the oil still contains small size solids and water. Due to large surfaces
of contact of oil with air, the oil quality can be affected as an oxidation process
can occur.
Separation of Suspended Solids from Oil
The process is carried out to produce raw crude oil with expected composition
of 90%oil and 10% water.
The conventional procedure of separation of oil from water and suspended
solids is the oil separation tank method. Oil is heated either by the
introduction of live steam or with closed steam heating coils which facilitates
gravity separation. Depending on the applied settling tank surface loading
rate and retention time, this procedure has a low-separation efficiency, which
is about 50%. As a result, either the separated oil still contains a high
concentration of suspended solids or the settled residue (settling tank bottom
sludge) contains a high content of oil. In addition, long retention times
combined with high temperature can also reduce oil quality. To improve the
separation process, some mills switch from the settling tank system to a more
efficient oil clarification system using a three-phase centrifuge (decanter).
The separated oil floating on top of the settling tank is then collected by
a funnel system and sent to the oil purification system. The settling tank
underflow is collected in the sludge tank and subsequently treated for
recovery of oil.
Purification
Purification is a final process during which fine suspended solids are
separated and removed from crude oil.
Raw crude oil from the settling tank (top oil) is combined with recovered oil
from the treatment of the settling tank underflow. This results in a total
crude-oil production of about 163 kg per ton of FFB being processed.
Centrifuges carry out this final oil purification step (solids removal).
For improved operation efficiency, these centrifuges are equipped with
an automatic cake discharge and cleaning system. As the suspended solids
content in raw crude oil is low, generated volumes of solid residues are
negligible leading to a lower impact on the environment.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
2-4
Oil Drying and Cooling
Due to high content of water in the purified crude oil, a treatment process
referred as oil drying and cooling is required.
The purified crude oil goes into a vacuum evaporation system. Subsequently,
the dried crude oil is kept in storage tanks and sold to an oil refinery.
This crude oil drying process-step has a lower environmental impact.
2.1.7 Recovery of Oil Separator Tank Underflow (Bottom Sludge)
The recovery process comprises two (2) sub-processes, which are carried out
in order to recover oil and to decrease the organic load of the liquid residue.
The bottom sludge from the oil separation tank is characterised by high oil
content (around 14%), high concentration of organic substances (both in the
dissolved form and suspended solids) and water-soluble substances.
In addition, the water phase contains fine fibres and sand.
Desanding
Desanding is a process to pre-clean the bottom sludge prior to being passed to
the decanter. Desanding is implemented to protect the equipment in the
subsequent process steps (in particular centrifuges) against clogging.
The bottom sludge is pre-cleaned by means of microstrainers/ hydrocyclones.
These desanders are frequently cleaned by discharging the accumulated
solids to the drain, followed by the injection of fresh water. Washwater
consumption for desanding is normally around 5 litres per ton of FFB.
Decanting-Separating
Decanting process recovers the oil contained in bottom sludge from separation
tank. The oil is then returned to oil separation tank.
The output of desanding process is discharged into decanter and separator,
producing recovered oil, decanter cake and wastewater, which is treated at
wastewater treatment plant.
2.1.8 Kernel Recovery Plant
After the solids parts leave the screw press, fibre and nuts are separated by
physical means. The fibre is used as biomass fuel in boiler on-site, whereas
the nuts are sent to the nutcracker or ripple mill section for recovery of palm
kernel, which is another product of palm oil mill besides crude palm oil
(CPO). The shell is separated from the kernel and collected for sale as fuel to
other industries. Only a small portion of shells is used as boiler fuel at
the palm oil mill.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement

2.1.9 Utilities
The main utility system in palm oil mill includes boiler, wastewater treatment
plant and biogas system (which is applicable to some of the palm oil mills).
Boiler
Steam is utilised in various sub-process of palm oil production; for example,
sterilisation and digestion. Raw water is treated in a softener plant for
removal of Ca-hardness and subsequently used as boiler feed water. Fibre is
typically used as boiler fuel. Shell can also be used as boiler fuel in case of
fibre shortage.
Wastewater Management
Generated wastewater from the palm oil mill typically goes to a biological
wastewater treatment process to ensure that effluent quality meets industrial
standard. However, in some palm oil mills, this generated wastewater with
high organic content (BOD 30,000 mg/l, and COD 90,000mg/l) undergoes
anaerobic digestion process as part of the biogas system for generating
electricity. Details are provided in the following section.
Environmental Management Guideline for Palm Oil Industry (1997) has provided
a review of suitable wastewater treatment technologies for palm oil industry,
including primary wastewater treatment, secondary wastewater treatment
and nitrogen removal.
Biogas System
Since palm oil wastewater has high organic load, it is suitable for producing
biogas by using an anaerobic treatment system. In the past, the most popular
wastewater treatment plant was pond treatment system, comprising anaerobic
pond, facultative pond, and polishing pond. Biogas generated from anaerobic
ponds was neither captured nor utilised. As energy price has significantly
increased in recent years, a biogas system has been introduced to palm oil
industry in order to reduce the cost of purchased energy.
Typically 1 m
3
of palm oil wastewater can produce 12-16 m
3
of biogas.
Consequently, biogas generated from the system is used for generating electricity
and selling back to grid. For example, 1 m
3
of biogas generally can generate
around 1-1.2 units of electricity. Moreover, biogas generated from 1 m
3
of treating
palm oil wastewater can generate around 29-39 Baht contributing to additional
revenue to palm oil industry (assuming that 70% peak and 30% off-peak is
applied, and average electricity price is 2.44 baht/unit).
In addition, organic loading of the processed wastewater can be reduced, which
eventually minimises effect on water pollution.

2.2 MATERIAL FLOW
Performance of the palm oil production process can be determined by
considering the materials flows of production process. The materials include
inputs to the process (i.e. raw materials and energy) and outputs from the
process (products, wastes and emissions). A concept of material flows is
employed to identify, quantify and improve characteristics of products,
technical processes and eco-efficiency. Through this concept, analysis of
inventory based on balances of material and energy flows, and balance
evaluation are applied.
Assessment of production performance is made possible by material flows.
Thus material flow incorporates itself as a key decisive making factor in
production process. An example of how material flow is inclusive in decision-
making includes decision on response plans or tasks to be employed in order
to improve or solve any particular problems of production process.
In a typical palm oil mill, key materials influencing the eco-efficiency
performance are crude palm oil (CPO), water, and energy. These key
materials can reflect the causes of under-performing production. Material
flows associated with CPO, water and energy are shown in Figure 2.2a - 2.2c.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
2-7
Figure 2.2a Material Flow of Palm Oil
Thru CPO production since entering fresh fruit bunches (FFB) into production
process, losses of CPO occur in various sub-processes. Losses are via empty
fruit bunches (EFB), fibre, wastewater and decanter cake. According to
Environmental Management Guideline for Palm Oil Industry (1997), about 56% of
the oil loss is through solid residues i.e. EFB and fibre, while the other 44 % is
discharged along with the liquid residues (mainly oil-room effluent).

Fresh water is converted into steam by boiler operation. Steam is mainly used
for sterilisation, and is used for digestion of fruit bunches. The steam is
partially lost in the exhaust of the sterilisation stage. Vibrating screen and
settling tank in the oil room section also require water to aid the processes.
Process wastewater mainly comes from the oil room section prior to being
treated, and discharged as effluent from the wastewater treatment plant.

electricity is generated from the diesel generator. In some factories with
a biogas system electricity is produced mainly for selling and distributing to

the Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA). The oil room section consumes the
highest electricity, compared with the other sections.
To improve eco-efficiency, materials flows need to be established and
employed in order to understand the inputs and outputs of the production
process. The result is the identification of improvement opportunities within
the process. The material balancing flows function as pointer of where
the data should be collected and behave as balancing evaluation of material
inventory. For instance, through material balancing flow, oil loss within
the production process could be identified including where the loss is
occurring.
However, data and information on eco-efficiency in palm oil industry are
not fully made available at present. Actual information on material balance
of water and energy usage is rarely available. As a consequence, most
information regarding eco-efficiency are not fully utilised by management
to aid decision-making.
Theoretically, analysis of material inventory and balance could be
successfully undertaken, when eco-efficiency data have been continuously
collected. Therefore, the development of data collection, verification,
evaluation and information reporting is of particular concern, and is
a starting point for management information process to support decision-
making.
In this Guideline, Management Information System (MIS) is introduced for
improving eco-efficiency in palm oil production. The following sections of
the Guideline will describe MIS concept, principles and how MIS could be
applied to palm oil production.

3 MIS INTRODUCTION
3.1 BACKGROUND
Management Information System (MIS) is defined as a system or process that
manages the collection, analysis and presentation of information to assist
decision-making and to enhance business competitiveness. MIS is typically
used as a tool by management to assess and monitor business performance
and to help compare or identify possible business alternatives, i.e.
introduction of new activities and process modification in industries.
Basic functions of MIS are to systematically capture data from operations; to
analyse data and transform into meaningful information; and to report and
make use of information such as monitoring performance and improving any
given process or activities.
3.2 OBJECTIVES OF MIS APPLICATION
Since businesses have to face higher competition, Information Technology (IT)
has proven to be a crucial part of business decision making to obtain a leading
edge. Moreover, IT is also applied to other parts of the business such as
marketing, human resources, production process and eco-efficiency.
Specific objectives of MIS application depend on individual organisations
strategy. In this guideline, the main objective of MIS application in palm oil
industry is to improve eco-efficiency and competitiveness.
A number of internal and external drivers encourage organisations to focus on
eco-efficiency practices.
These internal drivers include:
Cost reduction;
Increasing quality of products and services;
Increasing innovations and employee motivation;
Responsibility to community;
Profitability;
Managing environmental risks and liability; and
Maintaining or increasing market share.
External drivers include:
Customer demands for more environmental-friendly products;
Competitive advantage by setting the trend or following market leader;
Shareholders demanding accountability and transparency;
Thai government regulations;
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-2
Public pressure for cleaner production; and
Government regulations and directives where products are exported to
overseas such as European Countries;
Market globalisation has influenced companies to greatly improve the quality
and environmental soundness of products and services they provide while at
the same time to produce goods at the lowest possible cost. In such a context,
eco-efficiency improvement by promoting the creation of products while
optimising resource use and reducing wastes and pollution, can answer
the increasing business needs together with enhancing the business
competitiveness.
In this perspective, the introduction of MIS can provide valuable support for
successful decision-making at the management level in palm oil industry.
With such a tool, eco-efficiency improvement can be achieved while at
the same time, competitiveness can be enhanced.
3.3 BENEFITS OF MIS APPLICATION
It is important to understand how MIS technology can support decision-
making and help to improve business competitiveness. However MIS can also
lead to a number of practical benefits for improving eco-efficiency.
These benefits include:
Encouraging palm oil industry to collect, analyse and transform
eco-efficiency data into meaningful information for the management in
a timely and systematic manner supporting order to support their
decision-making;
Allowing the management of palm oil factories to identify gaps for
improvement, to monitoring performance (either for their own internal
benchmarking or industry benchmarking), and also to compare various
alternatives such as process modification and installation;
Increasing palm oil productivity and maximising return on investment;
Cost reduction measures (and increasing revenue) through more efficient
use of materials, resources and energy;
Reducing risks and liabilities with appropriate environmental
management planning and avoiding the use of toxic substances;
Enhancing brand image through efforts on marketing and communication;
and
Improving environmental performance and reducing toxic emissions by
reusing and recycling unused materials.
3.4 MIS PRINCIPLES
Basic requirements for MIS application and implementation are categorised
into three (3) main elements comprising People, Implementation Process,
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-3
and Tools (hardware and software). Principles and relationship between
these elements are elaborated in this section.
3.4.1 People
The most important element in MIS is the people involved since all objectives
and benefits will be addressed by understanding personnel who will also
oversee MIS process, information and tools.
An MIS operation comprises of several tasks; therefore, it is necessary to
group such tasks, based on relevance, and assign roles and responsibilities to
fulfil them. By doing so will not only clearly define roles and responsibilities
to perform MIS processes but also assist plant owners to be able to select and
recruit suitable personnel.
It should be noted that the amount of MIS personnel is based on plant owner
consideration. Typical roles and responsibilities in MIS implementation are
described as follows.
Roles, Responsibilities and Qualifications:
In general, there are three (3) levels of roles and responsibilities for personnel
involved in MIS implementation, comprising management role, supervision
role, and operation role.
Management Role
Every successful MIS requires management support and involvement.
Without management, all data collection and analysis for decision making will
not be meaningful. The main role of management is to bind MIS and other
operation together to implement the decision made from MIS reports and/or
decision-making process. Also, management needs to take an active role in
facilitating the followings:
Use and interpret information from MIS reports for decision-making;
Align MIS strategy and policy with business strategy;
Guide MIS supervisors on objectives and benefits of implementing an MIS;
Provide and manage MIS budget and personnel;
Communicate the importance of MIS to all employees including
MIS personnel and all other department personnel; and
Provide support in further development and improvement of MIS in the
future.
Supervision Role
Personnel in charge of MIS supervision can be someone who posses an overall
understanding on how to reach the objectives and realise the benefits, while
manage and supervise MIS operation. Thus MIS supervisor is not necessarily
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-4
Information & Communication (ICT) trained or certified personnel. Typically,
the supervision role is undertaken by a plant manager, production manager,
or dedicated MIS supervisor. However, it will be beneficial if MIS supervisor
is comfortable with computer technology.
Supervision roles and responsibilities include:
Oversee all MIS processes, information and tools, are implemented in
a correct and good manner with clear understanding of realising the
objectives and benefits;
Introduce the MIS procedures and its objectives to MIS operation
personnel;
Analyse data and create useful information;
Report information findings and recommendations to management for
decision making; and
Organise maintenance, troubleshoot, and upgrade all MIS hardware and
software (optional).
Operation Role
Operation role can be assigned to any plant staff, who is involved in any
particular process that needs data collection. Typically, the plant personnel
taking the operational role come from different departments such as
production staff and laboratory staff. Understanding that data collection and
MIS procedure implementation are different tasks from regular operation
tasks, selecting personnel for this role requires those who understand and able
to perform MIS tasks with comprehension and care.
At the plant floor, implementing MIS procedures are secondary to operational
tasks unless acquire dedicated MIS personnel. MIS supervisors need to make
sure that MIS operation personnel are trustworthy and honest to their
responsibilities. Otherwise, MIS procedures and data collected will be skewed
and not present actual findings, which will lead to poor analysis, poor
reporting and poor decision making. Above all, it will not assist in realising
the objectives and benefits set out to implement MIS in the first place; hence,
careful selection and monitoring of MIS operation personnel is vital.
Operational roles and responsibilities include:
Implement MIS procedures and tasks at any particular process required;
Collect and enter data into provided system (i.e. software) accurately and
honestly; and
Organise maintenance and troubleshoot, and upgrade all MIS hardware
and software (optional).
It should be noted that dedicated MIS team/personnel is recommended to
supervise, monitor and implement MIS procedures, tasks and tools.
Nevertheless, this would depend on the plant owner insights, budget and
operations.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement

3.4.2 MIS Implementation Process
People, as described in the previous section (Section 3.4.1), will need to adopt
MIS processes and understand the information flow to implement MIS, and
successfully meet its objectives and benefits. A methodology for applying an
MIS needs to be selected for MIS implementation.
Every industry is different and so are their processes, information flow and
methodology. Conversely, the MIS processes could be applied to the palm oil
industry. This section describes typical MIS processes, information flow and
methodologies for applying an MIS.
Typical MIS Processes
Preparation Stage
At this stage, people roles need to be assigned, tools need to be selected and
acquired; processes will need to be set and communicated to relevant
personnel and departments. Training is often required for personnel of
related process. Management shall take on the role in identifying the needs
for MIS implementation, setting the strategy, objectives, and the foundation
and its cooperation between internal departments and management, which in
turn determines the achievement of MIS commencement.
Personnel involved: Management, MIS, and Related Department Heads
Data Collection and Consolidation
Data collection and consolidation is a crucial process as it gathers actual data
from plant level. In most cases, this process is undertaken by existing plant
staff and not specifically dedicated MIS personnel; therefore, training and
reminders are often provided. To ensure the quality of data, a data audit
process shall be conducted from time to time.
After collection, data need to be consolidated and stored such as entering data
into software
1
to be systematically structured for further analysis.
This process is sensitive and is regarded as the most human error process in
MIS. Entering incorrect data, into the system would lead to poor analysis.
To prevent human error, data verification process based on each plants MIS
policy may need to be implemented.
Personnel involved: MIS Supervisor and Assigned Operator
Data Cleansing & Verification or Data Auditing
This process is optional depending on each plants MIS policy. This process
varies from industry to industry but is required for financial application
(1) Software-enabled method
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-6
processing such as credit card or loan. For palm oil industry, it varies from
plant to plant whether data collection and consolidation is adequate and
reliable. If not, MIS supervisors will need to allocate additional resources to
verify data collected. Consequently, this process will not be emphasized in
this guideline.
Data Processing
Processing of entered data will create sets of information that will allow
management to support decision-making. Each set of information will then be
compared and analysed to measure each production processes efficiency,
illustrated by key performance indicators (KPI), creating plant and industry
benchmarks. Data processing is generally carried out by software.
This process is viewed as the most vital process in MIS processes since data
processing will provide key information such as how efficient each process is,
how each data collected can help improve efficiencies, and how to initially
adjust each process for better throughput according to data analysis.
Personnel involved: MIS Supervisor and Management
Information Reporting and Analysis
Following analysis, set of information will need to be arranged in a
presentable format for reporting. The purpose is to formalise sets of
information in a simple visual format so that high-level executives or
management can easily review it.
In regards to time constraint on management to review the information, it is
critical to standardise reports so that management has little-to-no learning
curve understanding the information. MIS needs to design this displaying
information process into formatted reports while incorporating minimum
time usage as possible; automate such process will be ideal. Recent researches
indicate that significant MIS time and resources are allocated to report
creation rather than necessary processes.
Since different management require different information based on their
interests; therefore, MIS reports should be designed to provide necessary
information for decision-making in the viewpoint of their interests.
Decision-making
This process is mainly managements responsibility. MIS takes a supportive
role. Undeniably, this process is the pinnacle of MIS processes as it
summarises all MIS effort and allows MIS to make recommendations to
management based on analysed information.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-7
Despite the outcome, implementing managements decision is an assigned
departments responsibility which may need MIS support to fulfil such
implementation.
Information Flow
Relationship between MIS process and MIS roles and responsibilities is
summarised and shown by a typical information flow diagram in Figure 3.4a
as follows.
Methodologies
To capture and enter data through analyse and present information, all MIS
processes need to apply a methodology to centralise and store such data while
enable the information flow. Methodologies can be categorised as such:
Manual Method
This is the most labour intensive approach to carry out any process.
It requires involved personnel to utilise basic tools such as paper forms and a
calculator to perform process tasks. Filing of gathered or even analysed
information is at the heart of each method. The manual method requires
paper-based filing (storing) as actual working documents while act as back-up
copies at the same time.
This manual method requires the most resources when compare to the next
two methods but may present the most cost-effective approach due to low
investment in tools and low maintenance. However, this method presents
frequent human errors.
Unavoidably, as information technology becomes more sophisticated and
more economical, businesses grow to rely heavily on them; hence, the need of
continuity plan is becoming more important. It has been proven time and
time again, that when unforeseeable event occurs, technology cannot aid the
continuity of business processes. Although primitive technology-wise, this
method became the standard continuity process for MIS practice.

Software-enabled Method
This method requires an interaction with software on a personal computer
(PC). A minimum set of a PC is at the base of this method.
As discussed in the section Data Collection and Consolidation, to
systematically structure entered data, the software interface (screen) is
extremely important. This part in software design is called Graphical User
Interface or GUI. GUI is not only formatting fields on a computer screen but it
is a psychological behaviour pattern that is interpreted into a screen layout so
that users can understand how to use it at best.
Decent GUI allows users to engage and interact with data whether entering,
formatting, calculating or so on with a low learning curve. However, good
GUI design also depends on the software functionality. If it serves simple and
straightforward functions such as data entry, it shall be designed to
accommodate the sequence of data to be entered for such industry specific
process.
No matter how well designed-software GUI is, error occurs at the interaction
of human and PC since human performs data input. In addition, data
auditing and process monitoring are viable options to assure better data
quality and lower human errors.
Calculation and analysis including other MIS processes except decision-
making can adopt software usage in two approaches: file-based and
purchase.
File-based is where MIS personnel create or adopt file associated to each MIS
processes and deploy them on role usage basis. For instance, data entry at
sterilisation process may have one PC with a file to enter data for such
particular processes involved. This approach, although widely practice,
presents problems of storage, analysis and reporting since data are scattered
in files on multiple PCs. To solve this problem, MIS can customise
productivity software such as Microsoft Excel and Access to service the
information flow. Such approach is an in-house software design, which
requires time, tools (network, cable wiring, database, server and so forth) and
resources and is not standard but highly customised to that particular
business. Consideration to take this approach depends on MIS know-how
and skill.
A viable and standard alternative is to use purchased software, which is
created by reputable companies who have deep knowledge in industry
processes. Supporting information flow for a palm oil mill may require
software that interconnects from each production process to process. This
particular type of software is called Manufacturing Resource Planning or
MRP. MRP is industry standard software but needs to be customised to fit
each plants production process, financial and accounting, and required
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-10
information in other departments. It may be costly, but it is proven to be the
most productive tool to enable efficiency boosting.
Automated Method
A sophisticated approach, which entails investments beyond computer
hardware and software, requires control over each process using hardware
and electronics that are able to capture data, alert on out-of-setting events and
interconnect to a computer network. This method is generally controlled via
a network of electronic controls and computers. Details of this method vary
highly from process to process; therefore, will not be discussed in this
guideline.
3.4.3 Tools
This section introduces MIS tools from paper-based to sophisticated tool, and
their attributes to consider its suitability to adopt.
Paper, Pencil/Pen and Calculator
Paper, pencil/pen and calculator are the most basic tools for any business
operation, and also the fundamental tools for MIS. No matter how
sophisticated MIS implementation can be, these tools would always be
required in business, as they are extremely familiar to any level of business
operation and are mostly adopted. Thus, application of these basic tools in
MIS process is straightforward. The advantage of these tools is that they
require almost no explanation in usage. The manual methodology requires
these sets of tools as mentioned previously for business continuity planning
and support.
For MIS, these tools can be applied specifically to data collection and
calculation processes. Unavoidably, as manual it is, prone to errors it
becomes. Repetition and verification of each process may be required to
guarantee its correctness.
Personal Computer (PC) and Productivity Software
In the late 1970s and early 1980s the personal computer (PC) has made its way
into every business. The reason is because it can support several tasks in one
machine lending a lot of equipment obsolete such as the typewriter.
However, it is the software inside the PC that makes all the difference.
Software are computer programs designed to serve specific tasks. The most
widely adopted next to operating system (programs to make PC function) is
productivity software such as Microsoft Office.
In a package of productivity software combines a word processor,
spreadsheet, presentation, communication, small database version of software
for users to work on.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-11
The success of Microsoft Office made the standard productivity tools
synonymous with its brand name such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel,
Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Access respectively.
These software normally substitute any manual process due to its ease of use,
functionalities, and versatility; hence, it is standard for any business operation
to deploy PCs with productive software as it can serve any business.
File Cabinet and Database
The common purpose of these two is storage of data; the difference is in its
form. A file cabinet files paper-based documents, but database files digital
information in a digitally structured file cabinet.
A database is crucial to store data for data input such as entering data for data
collection and data output such as displaying data consolidation to perform
calculation or even as a report. Database is an electronic centralised place for
data storage. Normally the access of data is from many PCs; therefore, a
database is usually placed in a server on a network of PCs to access.
Before or after storing data electronically, the actual paper is used for writing
down data collection from any production process to print outs of data forms
to perform calculation or reports. All need a physical location to store, which
is the file cabinet.
File cabinets act as a backup location for databases data printouts whether in
forms of raw data, data tables or reports. File cabinets are proven inadequate
to serve data input and output like databases. Hence, in business practice,
both coexist due to dependability. Procedures to guarantee the safety of
business data are also critically required; backup procedures are commonly
adopted.
Server and Local Area Network (LAN)
A server is a regular PC but dedicated as a public PC to allow other PCs to
access information on it such as a database.
A Local Area Network (LAN) comprises of multiple PCs, servers and network
equipment (i.e. hub, router, switch, etc.) to enable communication with other
PCs. The purpose of communication is to exchange information whether
being email, documents, data, and any forms of electronic information.
There are two (2) types of networks, which are wired/cable and wireless.
Wired/Cable Network
Wired/Cable network will use a physical network cable to physically connect
each PC. The advantage of using cable is that data transmission is reliable,
fast and cost-effective.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
3-12
Wireless Network
Wireless Network will use radio emission as media to carry the data over the
air between each PC. The advantage of wireless is the flexibility of location if
within radio emission reach, but it will sacrifice speed. When compare similar
size of networks, wireless networks are more expensive than wired.
MRP and ERP
MRP stands for Manufacturing Resource Planning; similarly ERP stands for
Enterprise Resource Planning. Both are software designed to connect
business processes and facilitate information flow using PCs, servers, and
network.
Each industry has its own specific MRP/ERP as processes are different.
For a given industry, MRP/ERP attempts to consolidate most processes by
using MIS. Currently, the average business that implements MRP/ERP can
bind 20% of the overall operation. This is due to the complexity of each
department and the interconnectivity to facilitate information flow.
Each department has its own sets of processes, which can create a complex
flow of information within the department. Implementing MRP/ERP requires
the management to to emphasize to all departments for cooperation. Over the
past two decades, Key Performance Indicator seems to be the driving force for
department cooperation.
Figure 3.4b illustrates different tools at each MIS process in accordance with
information flow.
A misconception of tools is to select, acquire and utilise the most advanced or
up-to-dated hardware and software when, functionality-wise, a moderate set
of computer hardware and software can perform such tasks adequately.
Adopting overqualified tools always irrationally causes increase in MIS
budget.
It should be noted that tools are to facilitate people to carry MIS processes and
information flow; understanding the methodologies, nonetheless, is more
essential than selecting and acquiring tools. The reason being that with such
understanding, MIS can better select and apply suitable tools that support
process requirements.
Table 3.4a addresses suggested tools for different methodologies (Manual,
Software-enabled and Automated) associated with MIS processes.

As shown in Table 3.4a above, a wide range of tools can be adopted
depending on the methodology selected. However, in the real practice, a mix
of methodologies is applied.
Whether noting down data on a piece of paper then enter into a database form
or key-in collected data into a software on the plant floor and printout to store
in a file cabinet, a mixture of tools are often used based on each plants
operation, familiarity and budget. Therefore, a pre-defined set of tools is often
mistaken.
In summary, each methodology (Manual, Software-enabled or Automated)
will evidently require different types of hardware. For example, Software-
enabled, file-based method, requires MIS personnel to design program
productivity software such as Microsoft Excel and Access, to create forms
(in MS Access), to interface with data entry formula sheets (in MS Excel) to
calculate such data and so forth.
Whereas, the automated method requires more complex and sophisticated PC
to communicate and enable the automation of data capturing via other
hardware such as steam gauge censor. This method minimally requires
a local area network (LAN) to facilitate the information flow.

In conclusion, plant owners can select a methodology with comprehension
while being empowered with tool knowledge to be able to select suitable
software and hardware accordingly.

Applying MIS Process to
Palm Oil Industry
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement

4 APPLYING MIS PROCESS TO PALM OIL INDUSTRY
This section describes how an MIS process is applied to palm oil industry in
order to improve eco-efficiency. A production process model that facilitates
the MIS application for palm oil industry is hereby addressed. Also, the MIS
process for typical palm oil industry starting from data collection and
consolidation, data processing and to information reporting, is described.
4.1 PRODUCTION PROCESS MODEL
In order to facilitate data collection as part of the MIS process for improving
eco-efficiency, a representative Production Process Model for a typical palm
oil mill has to be established. As a consequence, a typical production process
of palm oil mill (shown in Figure 2.1a) can be arranged or sub-divided into
five (5) sections comprising: Primary Production Process; Oil Room; Dry
Process; Wastewater & Biogas; and Utility.
4.1.1 Primary Production Process (Section# 1)
Primary production process involves mainly with the conversion process of
raw material Fresh Fruit Bunch (FFB) into raw crude palm oil. This process
comprises sterilisation, threshing, digestion and screw pressing. Apart from
raw crude palm oil, a certain amount of Empty Fresh Fruit Bunch (EFB) is also
generated from this section (from threshing) which can be further used and
sold as biomass fuel or as media for mushroom cultivation.
4.1.2 Oil Room (Section# 2)
Once raw crude palm oil comes out from screw pressing step, it enters the Oil
Room. The main task of Section 2 is to purify the raw crude palm oil and to
improve physical property of crude palm oil. This section comprises vibrating
screen, oil separation tank, de-sander, decanter-separator, purifier and dryer.
This section also produces a significant volume of wastewater and decanter
cake.
4.1.3 Dry Process (Section# 3)
Dry process has a series of separation and drying activities of the fruit starting
from fibre-nut separation, nut drying and cracking, shell-kernel separation
and kernel drying. Kernel is one of the products from palm oil mills, which is
typically sold for further crude kernel palm oil production. During this
process, by-products are also generated such as fibre and shell. These by-
products can be used and sold as biomass fuels for other industries, such as
cement and power plants.
Department of Industrial Works MIS Guideline for Eco-efficiency Improvement
4-2
4.1.4 Wastewater and Biogas System (Section# 4)
This section is mainly a wastewater treatment plant, which manages process
wastewater from palm oil production. Outputs from the treatment plant are
wastewater sludge and treated wastewater or effluent. In addition, some
palm oil mills have equipped the wastewater treatment plant with a biogas
system that generates electricity from the use of biogas generated from the
wastewater treatment process.
4.1.5 Utility (Section# 5)
This section comprises a process of plant steam and electricity generation.
Typical fuel that is used for boiler operation is fibre from the dry process.
Boiler is employed for generating steam to be used within the palm oil mills,
whereas a steam turbine is used for producing electricity for plant internal
use. Stack emissions from boiler are one of the pollution outputs from palm
oil mills.
A representative Production Process Model for MIS application for
improving eco-efficiency in palm oil industry is shown in Figure 4.1a.

4.2 DATA COLLECTION AND CONSOLIDATION
In order to apply MIS, a set of data will continuously need to be acquired for
further usage. The first step as described in MIS principal process will be
the data collection and entry of each section in MIS production process model
(Figure 4.1a). After collecting data from each section, MIS will need to
consolidate all data into one centralised place whether on paper or in
a computerised format such as an excel file or a database. This is to help
facilitate the information flow for further processes.
As a baseline, users requirements and palm oil mills representatives needs
have been identified. A set of proposed data to be collected has been
established based on their current data collection, analysis and information
usage, and their needs for applying MIS to enhance business competitiveness
and eco-efficiency. Table 4.2a-4.2f illustrate the proposed data collection
scheme for each simplified production process model/ section of palm oil
industry.
The data collection scheme addresses proposed data, measurement unit,
priority of data collection, objectives, collection frequency, responsibility, and
measurement methods. It should be noted that the proposed data set has been
prioritised into Priority 1 and Priority 2 based on the main purpose of
enhancing the palm oil mills to implement a meaningful MIS. Criteria for data
prioritisation are given below:
Priority 1 Data that are directly related to palm oil productivity and the
use of main raw materials as well as the management of value-added
unused materials where economically viable to palm oil mills. In addition,
environmental data required to be reported to the government are also
included (Examples of data include the use of fresh fruit bunch, the use of
water, saleable shell and effluent quality); and
Priority 2 Data that are indirectly related to productivity of the palm oil
mills including pollution outputs from the production process, and also
those data that play a key role in the production process however are
hardly or costly measured at present (Examples of data include disposal of
decanter cake and boiler stack emissions).
Priority 1 data are the minimum data requirements for applying meaningful
MIS for increasing business competitiveness and enhancing eco-efficiency for
a typical palm oil mill. In addition, these data will be further processed into
information or performance indicators to allow the management to use and
make decisions based on the given information. A set of management
information is addressed in Table 4.4a of this Guideline.
Locations of data to be collected are illustrated in Figure 4.2a-4.2e.
The collecting locations addressed in Figure 4.2a-4.2e are indicated by code
consisting of a letter with numbering.
IP-GTZ Department of Industrial Works

Abbreviations of these numerical codes are provided as follows:
P = Products and By-products (Valuable Unused Materials)
S = Sales
L = Efficiency and Losses
C = Purchases
I = Input Materials
E = Energy and Fuel
W = Waste and Emissions
Whereas, Priority 2 data are optional data requirements that are useful and
help business competitiveness and eco-efficiency however these data are
considered as the second priority for the palm oil mills (with less concern than
Priority 1 data). Thus, these data will not be transformed to the information
or performance indicators in this Guideline (but can be added on according to
the specific needs of individual palm oil mill).
In general, the collected data are first stored in a database and processed in
MIS software, and then key performance indicators (KPIs) are created and
these information are reported to management for decision-making.

4.4 INFORMATION REPORTING & ANALYSIS
Minimum data requirements or Priority 1 data need to be processed into key
performance indicators to assist management representatives of palm oil mills in
decision making. Apart from the defined key performance indicators, some of
Priority 1 data can also provide valuable indicators to the management such as
daily use of fresh fruit bunches (FFB), daily production of products, unit costs and
prices of those materials, as well as data that are required to be reported to the
Department of Industrial Works (i.e. treated wastewater and usage of chemical
and electricity for wastewater treatment).
Information in various aspects can become important to different groups of people
in the organisation. Typical interested management personnel in the palm oil
mills are factory owner, factory manager, production manager and utility
manager.
Management personnel of the palm oil mills may require different information.
Typical reporting contents for each management personnel are addressed below
(It should be noted that the needs of information by these personnel have been
established base on the interviews with management representatives of selected
palm oil factories).
