Refining of edible oils: a critical appraisal

  • 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.
  • Can mmmz make sunflower oil more widely available in Zambia?
  • The company will buy all sunflower produced by contracted out-growers. MMMZ wants to make sunflower oil more widely available in Zambia through this project. Sunflower oil is more nutritious than other edible oils and if processed from locally produced seed can be sold at prices which are affordable to low-income consumers.
  • Who sells edible oil in Zambia?
  • They hold about 45% of the Zambian edible oil market. MMMZ has their own processing plant with an oilseed crusher (200,000MT/annum capacity) and an edible oil refinery (140,000MT/annum capacity). They sell refined oil to wholesalers and the hotel industry, big retailers and also offer oil through dispensers via smaller outlets.
  • Is palm oil a vegetable oil?
  • World supply of vegetable oils. Palm oil has a unique fatty acid (FA) and triacylglycerol (TAG) profile which makes it suitable for numerous food applications. It is the only vegetable oil with almost 50–50 composition of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. CPO is used for cooking, frying, and as a source of vitamins.
