• What is the Physical refining process for palm oil?
  • The physical refining process is suitable for both crude palm oil and palm kernel oil. Our physical refining plants are built for large-scale production. Our process technology is based on a fully continuous and automatic fractionation of palm oil.
  • What is rpko ¨C refined palm kernel oil?
  • Here we also have the option to process the oil at the refinery to obtain refined palm kernel oil (RPKO). The cake remaining after the pressing, is also used in the plantation. Crude palm oil, after extraction from the bunch, looks at room temperature (e.g. 25¡ãC) like a pasty and strongly red-coloured material.
  • How is palm kernel oil produced?
  • Cracked shells and palm kernels are further separated in a clay bath. The shells also go to the steam boiler as fuel. The palm kernels pass through drying silos and into the palm kernel crushing plant. At the palm kernel crushing plant, presses crush the kernels in two stages. The oil produced is filtered and stored as crude palm kernel oil (CPKO).
  • Does palm oil produce pericarp & kernel oil?
  • The palm oil fruit can yield two distinct edible oil ¨C the pericarp and the kernel parts of the palm fruit. The physical refining process is suitable for both crude palm oil and palm kernel oil. Our physical refining plants are built for large-scale production.
  • What is a Palm Oil crusher & refiner?
  • Palm oil crushers and refiners are key nodes in a complex, global supply chain. Over 21 million ha1 of oil palm plantations are harvested annually across the tropics, 73 million MT of palm oil and 8.6 million MT of palm kernel oil is produced globally,2 and products containing palm oil ¨C from food to cosmetics ¨C are ubiquitous.
  • What is a palm oil production column?
  • The Palm Oil Production Column will introduce the details of each process, providing you with the guidance and support you need for your palm oil business. Palm oil production is a complex process that involves a variety of stages, each of which is critical to the success of the overall operation.
