Crude Palm Oil Refining Plant Working Stages
The main steps of crude palm oil refining are degumming, deacidification, bleaching, and deodorization.
CPO(crude palm oil)→ refining → bleaching → deodorizing →RBD palm oil → crystallization → fractionation → RBD olein & RBD stearin
Degumming
The degumming process aims to remove the gum impurities in crude palm oil to make it suitable for further refinery processes. Water or acid is added to remove phospholipids and gums.
Neutralizationg
Alkali solution (typically sodium hydroxide) is added to neutralize free fatty acids. Deacidification is a process that has a
great impact on palm oil quality. If there is a problem with the neutralization process, the following decoloration will be
greatly affected. The free fatty acid in crude palm oil can affect the stability and relish of palm oil. We can add some lye to
neutralize the free fatty acid, this process is also called alkali refining.
Bleaching
The palm oil bleaching process is to remove oil pigment, residual soap, and metal ions. All the pigments can be removed by the adsorbents method. The bleaching process can improve the oil color, relish, and increase the oxidation stability, thus providing a good condition for the deodorization process.
Deodorization
Steam distillation removes volatile components that cause odors. The palm oil deodorization section plays an important role in improving palm oil quality. The refined palm oil is nearly colorless and transparent in the liquid state and white in the solid state.
Details
Palm Fruit Collection And Reception
Purpose: Transport FFB to the reception station, flow to the scraper conveyer and convey to the sterilizing station.
Process: Palm Bunch Reception is the first step in crude Palm Oil processing plants.The palm fruit bunch reception process is finshed at the loading ramp, which adopts hydraulic segmented discharge. The loading ramp is a platform for palm fruit unloading, cleaning, and storage. Under the slope, there are some cages to receive the palm fruits. To ensure high oil quality, it's better to process the palm fruits within 24 hours of harvesting
Palm Fruit Bunch Sterilization
Purpose: FFB transported by scraper conveyer falls into the sterilizing tank, to inactivate enzymes that cause oil deterioration,
soften the fruit for easier separation of the fruitless, and get more oil yield.
Process: Rail cars bring raw materials from the reception station into the sterilization tank. FFBs are placed in large sterilizer chambers where steam is introduced to raise the
temperature to 130°C to 145°C for 1-2 hours. This also loosens the fruits from the bunch. Palm fruit can easily separate from palm
fruit can be easily extracted from palm fruit due to its high humidity. The Palm kernel can also be easily separated from the kernel
shell.
Equipment: Horizontal or vertical sterilizer. Steriliser Service Platform. Condensate Pit. Sterilizer Control System.
Scraper Conveyors.
Palm Fruit Threshing
Purpose: To detach the sterilized palm fruits from the bunch.
Process: The palm fruit is softened in the sterilizing process and
then sent to the threshing machine via the bucket elevator. The palm fruit threshing machine uses strong vibration to separate the
palm fruit from the palm bunches. Palm fruit after separation is delivered to the pressing plant. The empty bunches can be used as
fertilizer in farmland or palm fruit plantations or pressed into fuel pellets.
Equipment: Palm fruit Thresher drum. Conveyors
Palm Fruit Digestion
Purpose: To crush and soften the palm fruits to release the oil, making the extraction easier. Process: The palm fruits are sent to a
digester where they are heated to 85°C- 90°C and mashed through stirring and squeezing, to destroy the palm skin, separate the
palm pulp and nuts, and pound the palm pulp, helping to release the oil in the palm oil pressing process. In small palm oil mill
plants, the palm fruit digestion process is usually designed without heat insulation and steam injection to reduce cost.
Equipment: Digester with rotating knives and steam heating.
Palm Fruit Oil Pressing
Purpose:To extract crude palm oil from the digested fruit.
Process: The digested palm fruits are fed into a palm oil press machine, which applies mechanical pressure to separate the oil
from the mesocarp fiber. The commonly used palm oil press machine is a double screw expeller. The pressing process maximizes the
extraction of palm oil from the pulp, but the kernels cannot be broken because the crushed palm kernel oil will contaminate the
crude palm oil and affect the quality. Using two or more pressing processes can effectively reduce the cracking rate of nuts. The resulting crude oil mixture which contains oil, water, and solids flows out, the crude palm oil will be delivered to the clarification section, and the fiber and nuts are separated and sent for nut recovery.
Equipment: Screw oil press machine.
Crude Palm Oil Clarification
Purpose: To purify the crude palm oil by separating water and impurities.
Equipment: Vibrating screen, settling tank, centrifuge.
Process: The crude oil passes through a vibrating screen to remove large fibers, then goes through a clarifying tank to allow oil,
water, and solids to separate. The oil mixture is heated to 85-90ºC and allowed to separate in the clarification tank. A settling time of 1-3 hours is acceptable.Oil form the top is skimmed off and purified in the centrifuge before drying in the vacuum dryer. The final crude palm oil is then cooled and stored. The
lower layer from the clarification tank is sent to the centrifugal separator where the remaining oil is recovered. The oil is
dried in the vacuum dryer, cooled, and sent to the storage tank. The oil undergoes centrifugation to remove residual impurities,
producing clarified crude palm oil. The Plate and frame filters can filter out most of the impurities to make the crude palm oil
reach the standard of edible oil. At this stage, the palm oil can be sold as lowquality palm oil or sent on for further
processing. For the further palm oil process, the palm oil refining process and palm oil fractionation process are necessary.
Palm Kernel Recovery
Purpose:Separate the palm kernel to extract oil from the nuts.
Process: The nuts are separated during the palm fruit pressing process. The pressed cake(fiber and nut mixture) is transported to
the fiber separation system for fiber and nut separation by the physical method. The nuts are sent to the nut silo. The palm
kernel will be recycled from the nuts by the cracking machine. The palm kernels are further processed in the palm kernel oil
extraction plant to produce palm kernel oil (PKO) and palm kernel cake (PKC). Equipment: Nut and fiber separator, nuts cracker, Palm kernel oil press.
We provide the equipment of complete production line, from fresh fruit bunch to the finished palm oil. We also can provide the filling and packing machines as the buyers' demand.
