SECONDARY PALM OIL (SPO) RECOVERY CHEMICALS

Secondary Palm Oil (SPO) Recovery Chemicals offered by HB Laboratories are specialized formulations designed to extract residual oil from waste streams such as palm oil mill effluent (POME), sludge pits, or centrifuge rejects—oil typically lost after primary separation. Our SPO Recovery Chemicals Series enhance extraction efficiency while promoting waste valorization and resource recovery, helping to reduce environmental pollution and lower the carbon footprint of palm oil processing. By enabling the reclamation of valuable oil from waste, HB Laboratories supports more circular and sustainable palm oil production practices.

HB Laboratories offered HB SPO Demulsifier Series that can separate oil from emulsified water-oil mixtures found in POME or residual sludge and these demulsifiers are often used before dissolved air flotation (DAF) or skimming tanks. Contact us to learn more about our HB SPO Demulsifier Series.

HB SPO Coagulant Series by HB Laboratories can be used to destabilize emulsified oil droplets in POME or sludge and agglomerate fine particles, helping release trapped oil. There are various types of coagulants in HB SPO Coagulant Series so contact HB Laboratories to understand the right SPO coagulant for you.

HB SPO Flocculant Series by HB Laboratories work together with the HB SPO Coagulant Series as flocculants work after the coagulation process to bind suspended solids and oil droplets into larger flocs for ease of separation. Flocculants improve settling rate and enable better oil separation from wastewater. Similarly, contact HB Laboratories to recommend the right SPO flocculant within the HB SPO Flocculant Series that can work well with the SPO coagulant.

In the context of secondary palm oil recovery, foam can trap oil, reduce separation efficiency, and overflow tanks leading to oil loss, mess and equipment inefficiencies. HB SPO Antifoaming Agents Series offered by HB Laboratories are used to suppress or eliminate foam formation during agitation or the recovery process. These products help to prevent foam from interfering with the efficiency of the recovery process and improve the overall quality of the recovered oil.
