A Comprehensive Guide to the Edible Oil Refining Process.
The process begins with heating crude palm oil (CPO) to a specific temperature, typically around 70-75°C (158-167°F). This heating reduces the viscosity of the oil, making it more fluid and easier to work with. Crystallization: After heating, the CPO is gradually cooled down under controlled conditions.
This further diversifies the oil׳s usefulness. Worldwide, 90% of palm oil is used for edible purposes while 10% is used in the soap and oleo-chemical industries. Palm oil is widely used as frying oil because of its high smoke point (230 °C) and a stronger resistance to thermoxidation than most other vegetable oils. Blending palm oil with more

Palm oil, Wikipedia
Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil derived from the mesocarp (reddish pulp) of the fruit of oil palms. [1] The oil is used in food manufacturing, in beauty products, and as biofuel. Palm oil accounted for about 36% of global oils produced from oil crops in 2014. [2] Palm oils are easier to stabilize and maintain quality of flavor
Crude palm oil is rich in minor components that impart unique nutritional properties. The most relevant are tocopherols and tocotrienols (vitamin E) and carotenoids (α- and β-carotene). Palm oil is generally refined by the physical process, which is preferred over the chemical process since high acidity (up to 5%) can lead to excessive loss
