Abstract: Formic acid
pulping of oil
palm frond was
conducted to study
the influence of
process variables (formic acid
concentration, hydrogen peroxide
concentration, and pulping
time) on the properties
of pulp produced
(yield pulp and
lignin content). A
second order polynomial model consisiting of three
independent process variables was found to accurately describe the formic acid
pulping of oil
palm frond. The
propose equations reproduce
the experimental results for the
dependent variables with erros less than 5% for both yield dan lignin content. The
most influential factor on yield pulp was formic acid concentration. Whereas,
the cooking time has greater influence on lignin content.
Keywords: formic acid,
lingocelulose, pulping, pulp organosolv, oil palm fronds
