Small-Scale Palm Oil Production in Ghana

Energy analysis for efficient mechanisation of palm oil

  • What type of palm oil is produced in Ghana?
  • Artisanal and small-scale palm oil producers occupy a greater share of Ghana’s palm oil processing industry, producing 60–80% of the country’s palm oil. However, the current processing systems used by the palm oil producers are mainly the traditional metal cooking pots and steel tanks.
  • How many small-scale palm oil processing mills are there in Ghana?
  • Twenty-five (25) small-scale processing mills were selected from four (4) palm oil processing Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDA) namely Cape Coast Metropolitan Area (CCMA), Abura Aseibu Kwamankese District (AAKD), Twifo Hemang Lower Denkyira District (THLDD) and Mfantseman Municipality (MfM) all in the Central region of Ghana.
  • Are wastewater treatment technologies applicable to small-scale palm oil processing mills in Ghana?
  • Additional studies are needed in other palm oil production regions of Ghana to generate national-level data. This will guide the development of a compendium of wastewater treatment technologies applicable to small-scale processing mills in Ghana. The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare that are relevant to the content of this article.
  • How is palm oil extracted?
  • This is followed by the extraction of the palm oil by men, by pressing the hot, pounded fruits that are confined in a metal press cage. Clarification is in principle the last stage of processing. It is usually omitted in order to reduce operational costs.
