This paper deal with incineration of the oil palm empty fruit brunches into biochar as carbon fertilizer for planting medium. The inceration process uses carbonized technology at temperature of 400 °F, developed by Ishenny Noor (2015). Application of 22-23% biochar as carbon fertilizer could increase soil carbon content from 0,4-0,7% to 2% / Ha, physical and chemical soil quality, ground water storage, fertilizer activity of soil microorganisms, soil nutrients. Application of biochar on rice plantation yielded 10 tons / ha of black rice / Ha, while application on oil palm plantation yielded oil palm fruit bunch of 20 to 40 kg / bunch. Production of biochar from oil palm empty bunches could give an extra profit for a palm oil processing factory by Rp. 471,926,000 a year (with a capacity of 100 tons/hour of the oil palm empty bunches in 24 hour operation a day) with the ROI of 78%/years, and B/C ratio of 1,71.
Study the effect of biocar and liquid smoke from solid waste of palm oil mill to enhance products palm, quality of fresh palm fruit bunches (FFB), and economic value-added. The study was conducted in 2017 at Langsa-Aceh. The method used is the analytical method of comparing FFB products and FFB quality, between land treated with biocar 2 ton/ha and spraying liquids moke formulation : water = 1:100. Data collection through on-site observation, interviews from various parties, laboratory tests for the yield of CPO and the content of FFA. The results showed that the products of FFB increased from 19% to 28%. The weight of FFB shows an increased of 17.5 kg. to 25 kg/FFB. Increased products of fresh fruit sign per Ha for a year of 223% and the quality of palm bunches that gave fresh fruit yields with 90-95% better maturity uniformity, compared with not treatment which only reached 60-70%. A higher yield of CPO 26-27% compared with no treatment of 19-21%, FFA content 2-5% lower than with no treatment of 2-15%. Application of biocar technology and liquid smoke can reduce the loss of economic value of Rp. 20.8484 T. annually over 4.7 million Ha of palm oil in Indonesia
