Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for extraction or separation of crude palm oil and the crude palm oil obtainable by the process. Description of the Related Art
  • Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil which is obtained from the mesocarp of palm fruits. Palm fruits or fruitlets grow in large bunches. The palm fruitlets are stripped from the fruit bunches after being sterilized. The high temperature causes the enzymes naturally occurring in the palm fruits to denature and facilitates stripping of the fruits from the bunch stalks.
  • the palm fruitlets are discharged into vessels commonly referred to as digesters, whereby a digested mash of palm fruits is produced under controlled temperature. The digested mash is then pressed, e.g. by using a screw press for subsequent recovery of palm oil.
  • the crude palm oil may be subjected to screening, e.g. to remove coarse fibers, and then to a clarification process to separate oil from water, cell debris and any remaining fibrous material.
