Palm Oil (Elaeis guineensis): A Journey through Sustainability

Sustainability in Palm Oil Processing Industry

  • How is refined palm oil produced?
  • To 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.
  • How is palm oil processed?
  • There are two major processing methods known as chemical and physical refining. Palm oil is by far the most important fractionated oil in the world; crude, semi- and fully refined palm oil can be fractionated in multi-stage, giving access to several products for specific applications.
  • What is crude palm oil refining?
  • To 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.
  • Why is Physical refining preferred for palm oil?
  • For 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.
