  • What is crude palm oil refining?
  • To prevent iron oxidation, the storage tank is lined in a suitable protective coating. The oil at this stage is called the crude palm oil (CPO). The aim of refining is to convert the CPO to quality edible oil by removal of objectionable impurities to the desired levels in the most efficient manner.
  • What is palm oil refining industry?
  • The palm oil refining industry has witnessed a commendable growth in recent decades and thus, has emerged as one of the vital manufacturing sectors in the world. Further, it has gradually become the most abundant traded vegetable oil in the world, owing to the growing demand.
  • Does palm oil need a refining process?
  • However, the crude palm oil that has been extracted contains unwanted impurities and requires a refining process to partially or eliminate them to produce edible oil. In the current scenario, palm oil is widely used in tropical countries in South East Asia, Africa, and parts of Brazil for cooking purposes.
  • What is a good quality palm oil?
  • Broadly speaking, high quality palm oils are used in the edible oil industry while lower quality oils are used in the non-edible industry for biofuels, candles, cosmetics and soap ( Henson, 2012 ). Good quality oil contains more than 95% neutral TAGs and 0.5% or less FFA. As an industry rule, the FFA content of refined oils must be ≤0.1%.
