  • Why is palm oil a valuable feedstock for enzymatic interesterification?
  • Palm oil and fractions are also valuable feedstock for enzymatic interesterification in which applications are for commodity oil (low-trans margarines and shortenings) and for special products (cocoa butter equivalents, infant formulation, …).
  • What is palm oil production chain (POPC)?
  • The Palm Oil Production Chain (POPC) is integrated process with several segments started from good cultivation practice to obtain fruit of high oil content through well integrated refinery process for maximal separation and utilization of each oil fraction and ended by the better use of different processes by-products.
  • How is palm kernel oil made?
  • The fruit is pressed to separate the oil from the ‘cake’ (a mixture of kernel and fibre). The oil is then purified and clarified. Crushing The kernel is cracked to remove the palm kernel shell (Palm Kernel Expeller or PKE) and the kernel is crushed and pressed to produce Palm Kernel Oil or PKO.
  • How does hydrogenation affect the iodine value of palm oil?
  • During hydrogenation, the iodine value of POL was reduced from 55.2 to 46.0 while trans fatty acid (TFA) content and slip melting point (SMP) increased from 0% to 7.15% and from 24.0°C to 37.8°C, respectively. The rapid increase of palm oil (PO) production in the last 20 years has made it the most important oil in the world.
  • Which country produces the most palm oil in the world?
  • Currently, Malaysia accounts for almost 50% of world palm oil production. As most of natural oils, PO has only a limited application in their original form, as a consequence of its complex chemical composition. PO contains free fatty acids, sterols, tocopherols, hydrocarbons, pigments, vitamins and many other components.
  • Why is palm oil a good choice?
  • Specially refined oils open a market for new high quality products (golden palm oil, red palm oil, white soaps, etc.). Palm oil is a good candidate for the multi-step dry fractionation process, aiming to the production of commodity oils and specialty fats (cocoa butter replacers). New technological developments allow quality and yield improvements.
