  • Where can oil palm be grown in the Congo Basin?
  • Most of the roughly 280 million hectares (Mha) of additional land suitable for oil palm in the Congo Basin are found in the Democratic Republic of Congo (60%), Cameroon (11%) and the Republic of Congo (10%). Many heavily forested countries in the Congo Basin are setting national targets to increase production to meet national and regional demands.
  • Will oil palm production increase in the Congo Basin?
  • Land area allocated to oil palm increased by 40% in the Congo Basin and five additional top-producing countries in Africa between 1990 and 2017. Without intervention, future production increases in the region will likely come from expansion rather than intensification due to low crop and processing yields, possibly at the expense of forest.
  • Can palm oil mills reduce deforestation in the Congo Basin?
  • Sustainability strategies initiated by companies and aimed at certifying palm oil mills are unlikely to be effective at curbing deforestation in the Congo Basin. Smallholder farmers are an engine of growth in the region’s palm oil sector, and recent evidence suggests they are actively clearing forest to expand.
  • Which organic solvent is used to extract oil from palm oil mill effluent?
  • The parametric study of the oil extraction from palm oil mill effluent (POME) has never been done before. Therefore, four organic solvents including n-hexane, methanol, ethanol, and toluene were used in soxhlet extraction to extract the oil.
