  • What is a deodorisation process in a palm oil refinery?
  • Learn more. Deodorisation is the key process to produce high-quality refined, bleached and deodorised palm oil (RBDPO) in a palm oil refinery. In this work, an integrated simulation¨Coptimisation approach was adopted for the analysis of a deodorisation process in an operating palm oil refinery.
  • Does refined palm oil process need simulation and optimization?
  • Conclusions Simulation and optimization of the refined palm oil process has been considered in this work.
  • Does crude palm oil quality affect the formation of glycidyl esters?
  • Besides, the effects of crude palm oil quality was assessed and it was found that the quality of crude palm oil determines the level of formation of 3-MCPDE and glycidyl esters in palm oil during the high temperature deodorization step of physical refining process.
  • Is double deodorization sufficient to produce refined palm oil?
  • Although a substantial GE reduction was achieved in T3, it is clear double deodorization with a high-low temperature scheme is not sufficient to produce refined palm oil that meets the GE maximum limits. Two publications have reported results of double deodorizations ( Matthäus and Pudel, 2013, Shimizu et al., 2013 ).
  • Should be of low pH be avoided in palm oil refining?
  • BE of low pH should be avoided, BE of mild acidity could be a great choice. Corresponding the high presence of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol esters (3-MCPDE) and glycidyl esters (GE) in refined palm oil, this paper re-evaluated degumming and bleaching processes of physical palm oil refining to reduce the amount of said contaminants.
  • How to choose the best refined palm oil?
  • The pH of BE is still the first deciding rule for the selection of BE for the mitigation of 3-MCPDE and GE in refined palm oil. BE of extremely low pH should be avoided, but BE with mild acidity could be a great choice. Beside the reduction of process contaminants, other qualities of the refined oil should also be of concern.
