Product Description

Processing of Refined Palm Oil or Kernel Oil: To get high grade oil products, the crude palm oil can be further processed in palm oil refinery equipment.

The small scale palm oil refining plant makes an appealing business venture for investors and the like looking into creating palm oil processing business. It has proved rather advantageous in the booming market of palm oil production.
 

The Prospects of Small Scale Palm Oil Refinery

 

Our oil refining equipment unit for small scale production has all the bells and whistles including decreased land usage requirements and investment capital. Due to the small size of the equipment set, it is also easy to install and maintain. There are several types of crude oils you can choose to work with including palm oil (CPO), palm kernel oil (PKO) and other types of vegetable oil such as sunflower oil, fish oil, peanut oil, etc.

Refining Process of Crude Palm Oil (3 Types)

You have the opportunity to carefully select which type refining process you want to specialize in. There are three common types of edible oil refining process: batch oil, semi-continuous oil, and continuous oil. Each type of refining process can determine the exact size and detailing process of the refinery plant.

Natural Crude Red Palm Oil Vs. Refined Palm Oil

 

Batch Oil Refining Process (1~30 ton/day)

This line of an oil refinery is perfect as a mini or small-scale palm oil mill plant. It requires low investment capital and a smaller occupation of land. You are able to refine almost every type of crude edible oil. The primary refinery process includes three stages which are de-gumming, neutralizing, bleaching, and deodorizing. This process eliminates all the impurities which make the oil inedible.

The refining process also includes making the oil palatable and rancid-resistant if and when it is stored for long periods of time. Batch oil refining holds a capacity of 1TPT to 30TPD.
 

Semi-Continuous Oil Refining Process (10~50 ton/day)

This line is suitable for medium-scale palm oil refining factory which are efficient in accommodating clients requests. You are able to refine different types of crude oils as well as plant and animal oils. It has a capacity of 10TPD to 50TPD.
 

Continuous Oil Refining Process (over 30 ton/day)

This line is specifically for large-scale palm oil refinery. It operates automatically with the refinement of the oils with the utmost efficacy. lts daily capacity stands at over 30TPD.

 

Palm Oil Fractionation

To separate solid phases (Stearine) and liquid phases (Olein), the refined palm oil should go through fractionation process. It is achieved by thermo-mechanical means.

Main Steps of Edible Oil Refining

1. Crude Oil Degumming: In this step gums in crude oil are removed by hydration with the help of phosphoric acid.
2. Neutralization: In this step, free fatty acids are neutralized by using sodium hydroxide and convert them into soap. Additional impurities are also removed by adsorption on the soap.
3. Bleaching: During bleaching, unwanted pigments are adsorbed physically and oil will become much clearer.
4. Deodorization: Deodorization is used to remove unacceptable odors by steam distillation, the odoriferous compound are stripped off with the help of live injected steam into heated oil under high vacuum pressure.
5. Dewaxing (necessary for cold areas)
Some kinds of oil like sunflower, maize germ or corn oil have waxes inside, if these impurities are not removed, the oil will freeze easily under low temperature, thus affecting oil quality and appearance. so this process is necessary for extremely cold areas.
