  • 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 much palm kernel oil can a pilot plant extract?
  • Ikechukwu et al., (2012) designed an expeller pilot plant to extract 200 kg of oil/day. The plant was tested with an initial input of 59.52 kg of palm kernel per hour, for 10 h. As a result, 200.05 kg of high-quality palm kernel oil was obtained.
  • 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.
  • What are the products of statolizer fractionation of palm kernel oil?
  • Consequently, the two steps Statolizer fractionation of palm kernel oil results in the following three products: a palm kernel stearin IV ¡«4 (for direct use as CBS), a palm kernel stearin IV ¡«7 (for use as CBS after full hydrogenation), and a palm kernel olein IV ¡«27.
  • 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.
  • What is the difference between crude palm and palm kernel oil?
  • The quality of fully refined palm and palm kernel oils is completely inseparable from the quality of the crude oils. As said before, the high acidity of crude palm and palm kernel oils places physical refining as the first option.
