Palm Oil and Palm Kernel Oil Refining and Fractionation
Crude, degummed bleached, or fully refined palm kernel oils can be processed with this technology ( Calliauw et al., 2005) ( Table 12-M ). The saturated fatty acid content is increased from ∼80% in the palm kernel oil to 93–96% in the palm kernel stearins; the lauric and myristic fatty acid contents go up to 80%.
Palm oil has centuries׳ long use as food and medicine. This review covers the recent significant materials found in the literature on palm oil processing, refining, and use in frying especially in blends with other vegetable oils. Crude palm oil (CPO) is obtained from the fruit of the oil palm tree (Elaeis guineensis). The oil is rich in
A Review on the Fundamentals of Palm Oil Fractionation
The various fraction of palm oil allows it to be used in different types of food products such as margarine, frying oil, and cocoa butter substitute. In fractionation, proper control of the fractionation conditions is important to produce the fractions with desirable stearin and olein quality.
The refining process of palm oil includes the following: Bleaching. Deodorisation. Fractionation. The crude oil is refined using two methods, including physical refining and chemical refining, during which FFA is removed to ensure that the FFA content is not more than 0.1 %. It is essential to note that physical refining is environment-friendly
Making the Palm Oil Industry Greener, Features, The
THE PALM fractionation plant process involves crystallisation and filtration as shown in Figure 4, where refined, bleached, deodorised palm oil (RBDPO) from the refinery is crystallised through a series of cooling steps and sent to the membrane filter press for separation to obtain olein (liquid oil) and stearin (solid fats).
The oil is stored at a temperature of about 50 °C using low pressure steam in heating coils to prevent it from going rancid through oxidation and to prevent solidification and fractionation. 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).
Palm Oil Production Process: A Step-by-Step Guide
Fractionation: Fractionation is an optional step that can be used to further refine the palm oil and produce specific fractions with different properties and applications. Packaging and Distribution: Once the palm oil has been refined and fractionated (if applicable), it is packaged and distributed to customers worldwide.
There are three fractionation processes used to fractionate palm oil, namely, dry fractionation, detergent fractionation and solvent fractionation.

New Developments in Palm Oil Fractionation
were filed, one for crude palm oil and the other for RBD palm oil fractionation in which the addition-al steps were incorporated (Chong et al., 2014a, Chong et al., 2014b). These are named the MPOB modi-fied fractionation programmes for crude palm oil and RBD palm oil fractionation, respectively. The pat-ented processes produce smaller
There are two major processing methods known as chemical and physical refining. Palm oil is by far the most important fractionated oil in the world; crude, semi- and fully refined palm oil can be fractionated in multi-stage, giving access to several products for specific applications. Identically, palm kernel oil is a popular feedstock for the
