FAQ

  • QHow is refined palm oil produced?
    ATo produce refined palm oil (RPO), the objectionable impurities in the CPO are removed to obtain the required levels using two main methods: chemical or alkali refining and physical refining methods. Either of these is followed by fractionation as a final purification process to separate the oil into stearin and olein components.
  • QWhy is Physical refining preferred for palm oil?
    AFor crude palm oil with low phosphatides, high initial acidity and high carotenoid content, physi-cal refining is preferred in terms of operating costs and refining losses. Most of natural oils have only a limited application in their original form, as a consequence of their specific chemical com-position.
  • QWhat is the minimum quantity I must order?
    AWe don't technically have minimums, but if you order more than 31 sets once,we can give you a discount.
  • QWhat is crude palm oil refining?
    ATo 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). The aim of refining is to convert the CPO to quality edible oil by removal of objectionable impurities to the desired levels in the most efficient manner.
  • QWhat is vegetable oil refining?
    AAs vegetable oil is an important component of the human diet, the source and the processing play an important role in consumer acceptability. To remove impurities that affect the color, palatability, stability, and safety of oil, crude vegetable oil must be refined. This review highlights the processes and steps used in vegetable oil refining.
  • QWhat technologies are used in vegetable oil refining?
    ASome review articles were devoted to describing refining process and technology involved as well as its effects on refined vegetable oils with an emphasis on chemical composition [23 – 26]. The present review aimed at comparing the two main industrial technologies used for vegetable oils’ refining, namely, chemical refining and physical refining.
  • QWhy is palm kernel oil better than crude oil?
    ADue to high acidity and relatively low phosphatide content, palm and palm kernel oil are generally physically refined, which is preferred to the chemical process. The quality of the crude oils has to be considered as it can greatly affect the efficiency of the refining process.
