• How is palm kernel expeller made?
  • The production of Palm Kernel Expeller begins with the processing of oil palm fruits, which are harvested from oil palm plantations. The fruits undergo mechanical pressing or solvent extraction to separate palm oil and palm kernel oil. Palm kernels, the seeds within the fruit, are then subjected to expeller pressing to extract more oil.
  • What is palm kernel expeller (PKE)?
  • Environmental Sustainability: Through sustainable practices and certification, Palm Kernel Expeller plays a pivotal role in mitigating environmental impacts associated with agricultural production. Palm Kernel Expeller (PKE) stands as a testament to the versatility and sustainability of the palm oil industry.
  • 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 is palm kernel explorer (PKE)?
  • Palm Kernel Expeller (PKE) is obtained from the residual cake remaining after the extraction of palm kernel oil from the seeds of oil palm trees (Elaeis guineensis). The oil palm industry primarily focuses on extracting palm oil and palm kernel oil, with PKE emerging as a valuable by-product.
  • What is palm kernel expeller cake?
  • Palm kernels, the seeds within the fruit, are then subjected to expeller pressing to extract more oil. The residual cake that remains after this process is Palm Kernel Expeller. This cake is dried to reduce moisture content and enhance its shelf life before being marketed for various applications.
  • What is the oil palm industry?
  • The oil palm industry primarily focuses on extracting palm oil and palm kernel oil, with PKE emerging as a valuable by-product. Its production involves a series of mechanical processes aimed at extracting oils from palm kernels, followed by drying and processing the leftover cake into Palm Kernel Expeller.
