Indonesia is one of the most important palm oil producers in the world. A substantial amount of oil palm wastes is produced as the byproducts of palm oil production. One problem of this wastes is the management of palm oil mill effluent (POME). This study applied supercritical water gasification technology to treat POME as feedstock to produce gas as valuable products. To set up this research, POME was fed into a continuous reactor at temperature of 500-600 °C and pressure of 25 MPa. Residence time was varied from 10 to 50 s to understand the POME gasification process with reaction time. Liquid, solid, and gas products was collected at the sampling port. Total organic carbon (TOC) analyzer was used to measure total carbon dissolve in liquid effluent. Gas chromatography (GC) was used to characterized gas products.
