How palm kernel oil is produced? ( the entire processing process from palm nuts to palm kernel oil )

July 8, 2022 16:09/ FAQ/ leave a message

In addition to the flesh of palm fruit, palm kernels also contain oil. The oil content of palm kernel is about 50%, which can be extracted by pressing. Palm kernel processing plant has small workshops and medium and large factory. Compared to small scale plant, medium and large plant has a complete palm kernel oil production line. This article mainly introduces the working process of the complete palm kernel oil production line with a processing capacity of 0.5 to 2 tons per hour, and helps you understand the detailed process of palm kernel oil production line.

The working process of palm kernel oil production line:

Mixture of palm nuts and fiber → Fiber and palm nuts separation→ Palm kernel and shell separation → Crushing → Cooking → Pressing → Filtering → Palm kernel oil

Step 1, Remove fiber from mixture of palm nuts and fiber

If the raw material of our palm kernel oil production line is a mixture of palm kernel and fiber, we need to separate the fiber and palm nuts, which is conducive to the subsequent squeezing process. Besides, and the problem of clogging of the pressing by the fiber can be avoided.

Step 2, Crack palm nuts and separate palm kernel from palm shell

The clean palm nuts also need to be transported into the palm kernel cracker and separator machine in order to separate the palm kernels from the shell, which is a quite important step in palm kernel production line and makes it easier to squeeze out palm kernel oil from the palm kernels.

Step 3, Crush palm kernel to make them into small pieces

Crushing aims to divide the palm kernel into small pieces and increase the surface area of the palm kernel, which can improve the efficiency of palm kernel oil pressing process and can also extract more palm kernel oil. The equipment used in the crushing process is a crusher.

Step 4, Adjust the condition of palm kernel

Cooking is used to adjust the temperature, humidity of palm kernels to make them in good condition before pressing. The cooker is a device used in cooking.

Step 5, Extract palm kernel oil from palm kernels by pressing

Pressing is an important step in the palm kernel oil production line, which extracts palm kernel oil from palm kernels by mechanical extrusion. Due to the high hardness of palm kernels, there are some differences between the palm kernel oil press and the common oil pressers in terms of structural design and equipment material.

Step 6, Filter the crude palm kernel oil to get the clearer one

The pressed palm kernel oil should be filtered by plate filter, so that a clearer palm kernel oil can be obtained, and the quality of palm kernel oil also be better.
