FAQ

  • How much palm kernel oil is produced a year?
  • The quantity of palm kernel oil produced is on average 12% that of palm oil. World production in 1998 was 2.9 million tons. After extracting the oil from the palm fruit, a hard kernel is left behind. The kernel is related to a coconut, but with a diameter of about 1 inch.
  • What is the yield of palm kernel oil per acre?
  • Yield of palm kernel oil per acre is approximately 8% of palm oil yield, with global production of about 4 million t. With approximately 82% saturated fat, it is very hard and brittle at room temperature but melts quickly at body temperature (Table 6.A). This is explained by the presence of 48% lauric acid, a low melting point saturated fat.
  • How to extract oil from palm kernel?
  • The Oil Extraction for Palm Kernel mainly include 2 methods, Mechanical extaction and Solvent extraction. Mechanical extraction processes are suitable for both small- and large- capacity operations. The three basic steps in these processes are (a) kernel pre-treatment, (b) screw-pressing, and (c) oil clarification.
  • What is the moisture content of palm kernels?
  • The important variables are temperature, retention time and moisture content. In the palm kernel, the meals are normally cooked to a moisture content of 3 percent at 104-110°C.
  • What is kernel pre-treatment?
  • Proper kernel pre-treatment is necessary to efficiently extract the oil from the kernels. The feed kernels must first be cleaned of foreign materials that may cause damage to the screw-presses, increasing maintenance costs and down time, and contamination of products.
  • How do you cook palm kernels in a steam cooker?
  • Steam trays heat the cookers, and live steam may be injected into each compartment when necessary. The important variables are temperature, retention time and moisture content. In the palm kernel, the meals are normally cooked to a moisture content of 3 percent at 104-110°C.
