The Cepros system uses 30 percent less electricity than when processing palm oil the conventional way, freeing up energy can that can then be sold to state electricity companies supplying power to the areas located near the factories.

"I called it continuous echo process because the technology works non-stop so no time is wasted," he said, promising that he would invite media and NGOs to witness Cepros technology at the factory's launch in January 2010.

Born in Mojokerto, East Java in 1967, Bambang spent most of his childhood in his hometown, then moved to Malang to study engineering at Brawijaya University. He also studied at Merdeka University and majored in law.

He started working for the largest ceramic producer in Tangerang in 1998, PT Kedaung Group, and was sent a few months later to Denmark to study water pumps.

After working for more than a dozen industrial firms within five years in Tangerang, Bambang, decided to work as an independent consultant for PT Arizal Bangun Perksasa, focusing on ground water drilling and electrical engineering.

The expert in ground water mapping soon invented a multi-purpose drilling tool that could be used for mining and a water purifier.

Given Bambang's concern for the environment, commercializing was never at the forefront of his mind.

"The most important thing for me is that Cepros can be useful in helping save the environment." THE END
