Palm and palm kernel oil production

  • Is palm olein tainted in Nigeria?
  • Presently, crude palm oil is imported for refining in Nigeria, although some quantities of refined bleached and deodorized palm olein are being disguised as crude palm oil and acid oils. Sometimes RBD palm olein is tainted with about 0.03% of crude palm olein and imported into the country as crude palm oil.
  • Why is palm kernel oil so popular in Nigeria?
  • The Nigerian vegetable oil market uniquely features palm kernel oil packaged for household and commercial food frying. More than 60% of refineries in Nigeria are built on palm kernel oil as raw materials. This is because processing of palm kernel oil involves degumming, bleaching, deodorization, cooling, and packaging.
  • Can palm oil production improve Nigeria's economy?
  • The study has shown that improving the local capacity of palm oil production in the Niger Delta would not only impact positively on food security and local economy but also portend huge prospects for future exports that will advance Nigeria‟s economy.
  • Is palm olein good for frying?
  • Matthaus (2007) reported that palm olein was comparable with high oleic vegetable oils and hydrogenated sunflower and cottonseed oils in terms of oxidative stability during frying. Palm oil is resistant to oxidation, polymerization and foaming. Palm oil does not produce any gummy or sticky residues in the fryer.
