The palm oil
industry provides means of livelihood to many people thus contributing
substantially to the Nigerian economy. Wastes generated from the processing of
palm oil often constitute environmental hazards. At present, there is strategic
search for research, policy debates and agro-environmental schemes geared
toward the conversion of waste to wealth in the industry. It is important that
the wastes generated by palm oil processors be managed using technologically
sound, economically viable and environmentally friendly techniques. The study
investigated the financial and environmental benefits in the marketing of palm
oil wastes. Data on waste disposal methods and revenue derivable from the
marketing of palm oil wastes were collected from primary sources using
structured questionnaire. Data obtained from these sources were analyzed with
the use of descriptive statistical tools and correlation analysis.
The result showed that the major type of
palm oil waste generated was palm press fibre (PPF) (40%) and palm kernel shell
(32%). Recycling of waste (36%) dominated the waste management methods,
followed by the sale (30%), while the least was dumping method. Disposal of
palm oil waste through organic recycling had positive effect (54%) on the
environment. The sale of palm oil mill effluent had significant (p<0.05) and
positive relationship with revenue generated by palm oil processors. The
marketing of palm oil waste studied enhanced the income of palm oil processors
and improved environmental quality respectively. We recommended the development
of the emerging market for palm oil wastes in Nigeria.

Palm (Hurma) yağı endüstrisi,
birçok insana geçim yolu sağlamaktadır ve böylece Nijerya ekonomisine büyük
ölçüde katkıda bulunmaktadır. Palm yağının işlenmesi sonucu ortaya çıkan
atıklar, genellikle çevresel tehlikelere yol açmaktadır. Günümüzde, sanayi
atıklarının değerlendirilmesine yönelik araştırmalar, siyasi yaptırımlar ve
tarımsal çevre düzenlemeleri için stratejik araştırmalar yapılmaktadır. Palm
yağı işleyen işletmelerin ürettiği atıkların teknolojik ve ekonomik açıdan
uygun, çevre dostu tekniklerle yönetilmesi önemlidir. Bu yüzden yapılan bu
çalışmada, palm yağı atıklarının pazarlanmasında finansal ve çevresel faydalar
araştırılmıştır. Birincil kaynaklardan toplanan atıkların değerlendirilmesine
ilişkin veriler ve palm yağı atıklarının pazarlamasından elde edilen gelirler
özel olarak hazırlanan anket kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Anket çalışmasından
elde edilen veriler, tanımlayıcı istatistiksel araçlar ve korelasyon analizi
kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir.
Çalışmanın
sonuçları, palm yağı atıklarının büyük bir çoğunluğunu palm yağı posası (PPF)
(%40) ve palm çekirdeği kabuğunun (% 32) oluşturduğunu göstermiştir. Atıkların
değerlendirilmesinde geri dönüşüm (% 36 ) oldukça yaygındır, bunu satış (%30)
yöntemleri izlemektedir. Palm yağı atıklarının
organik geri dönüşümle atılması, çevre üzerinde (% 54) olumlu etkiye sahip
olmuştur. Palm yağı işletmesi atık sularının satışı, işletme sahiplerine gelir
getirdiği için, aralarındaki korelasyon istatistik açıdan önemli bulunmuştur (p
<0.05). Bu çalışma göstermiştir ki, palm yağı atıklarının pazarlanması, palm
yağı işletmelerinin gelirlerini arttırmış, ardından çevreyi olumlu yönde
etkilemiştir. Nijerya'da palm yağı
atıklarının pazarlanmasının geliştirilmesi tavsiye edilmiştir.
