Is Palm Kernel Cake a Suitable Alternative Feed Ingredient
Palm kernel cake (PKC), a by-product of oil extracted from palm nuts through expeller press or solvent extraction procedures is one of the highest quantities of locally available and potentially inexpensive agricultural product. PKC provides approximately 14–18% of crude protein (CP), 12–20% crude fiber (CF), 3–9% ether extract (EE),
By-product Utilization. The palm kernel cake (PKC) that is high in protein and fats content is mainly used as one of the main components for feedmeal formulation for the ruminant industry. The use of PKC as part of feedmeal formulation for the non-ruminant and poultry industry is limited due to its high fiber content (Wan Zahari & Alimon, 2004 ).
Soxhlet, microwave-assisted, and room temperature liquid
In this study, the extraction of oil and bioactive compounds from palm kernel cake (PKC), a byproduct of the palm oil mill, was investigated using Soxhlet extraction (SE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and room-temperature liquid extraction (RTLE) using isopropanol as a solvent.
It is produced palm oil, palm kernel cake and meal according to the method of extraction. Palm kernel cake resulted from the mechanical expeller procedure contains 5-12% oil while, palm kernel meal obtained from solvent extraction technique contains 0.5-3% oil 32. Palm kernel cake has been used as a feed for various livestock production 2,24-26
Effects of palm kernel cake on nutrient utilization
Palm kernel cake (PKC; Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is the main co-product obtained from palm kernel oil extraction, whose worldwide production has increased by around 50% in the last 10 years (FAOStat, 2021). Hence, a large quantity of waste from this industrial process could be discarded, resulting in significant environmental problems.
Abstract. This book chapter explores scientific interventions aimed at improving the utilization of palm kernel meal (PKM), a by-product obtained during the extraction of palm oil. The chapter emphasizes the potential of PKM as a source of bioactive peptides and its application in animal nutrition. Bioactive peptides derived from PKM are a
Palm kernel, Wikipedia
The palm kernel is the edible seed of the oil palm fruit. The fruit yields two distinct oils: palm oil derived from the outer parts of the fruit, and palm kernel oil derived from the kernel. [1] The pulp left after oil is rendered from the kernel is formed into "palm kernel cake", used either as high-protein feed for dairy cattle or burned in
3.2.1 Palm Kernel Cake. PKC, also called palm kernel meal, is the residue after the extraction of palm kernel oil from the seed. PKC availability in large quantities is due to its industrial uses and export potential. Being the largest producer of palm kernel cake, Malaysia produces an annual quantity of 1.4 tons as a by-product in the milling
