  • How is palm kernel oil refined?
  • Palm kernel oil refining involves the following steps: Neutralization with NaOH (alkaline refining) for minutes to neutralize the oil. Then, the crude palm kernel oil is settled and decanted. The upper part is the washed oil, while the lower part is distilled water.
  • How is refined palm oil produced?
  • To produce refined palm oil (RPO), the objectionable impurities in the CPO are removed to obtain the required levels using two main methods: chemical or alkali refining and physical refining methods. Either of these is followed by fractionation as a final purification process to separate the oil into stearin and olein components.
  • How does a palm kernel oilcake work?
  • The expelled kernel oil flows through the slots distributed over the barrel circumference. The oilcake leaves the extraction machine through an adjustable cone and is then delivered to the second pressing. Because of their high oil content, Palm kernels have to be subjected to 2 stage pressing for maximum oil yield.
  • Why is refining palm oil important?
  • The processing of palm oil, from fruit pulp to refined oil, is detailed, highlighting the importance of refining in maintaining quality and extending application ranges. While palm oil offers health benefits because of its rich fatty acid composition and antioxidant properties, its production poses significant environmental challenges.
  • Where does Morocco import palm oil?
  • At the same year, Palm oil or fractions simply refined was the 918th most imported product in Morocco. Morocco imports Palm oil or fractions simply refined primarily from: Indonesia ($4.81M), Spain ($1.72M), United Arab Emirates ($845k), Netherlands ($630k), and Cote d'Ivoire ($278k).
  • Why are palm kernels pressed twice?
  • Because of their high oil content, Palm kernels have to be subjected to 2 stage pressing for maximum oil yield. The expelled kernel oil flows through the slots distributed over the barrel circumference.
