What is palm kernel oil extraction & refining?

Palm kernel oil (PKO) extraction and refining techniques involves operations such as sorting of kernels, handling, mechanical pressing, filtration of crude oil, thermal, chemical and physical treatment of crude oil to obtain desired edible oil that suits variety of applications.

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.

What is crude palm oil refining?

To prevent iron oxidation, the storage tank is lined in a suitable protective coating. The oil at this stage is called the crude palm oil (CPO). The aim of refining is to convert the CPO to quality edible oil by removal of objectionable impurities to the desired levels in the most efficient manner.

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.
