  • How much FFA is in palm oil?
  • High percentage of FFA in palm oil can affect human health and the quality of palm oil. Based on quality standards specification set by Malaysia Palm Oil Board (MPOB), the allowable content of free fatty acid (FFA) for crude palm oil (CPO) must not exceed 5%, meanwhile less than 0.1% of FFA in Refined Bleached Deodorized Oil (RBDO).
  • What contributes to FFA build-up in crude palm oil production?
  • Another key contributor to FFA build-up is loose fruit (LF), which is collected following FFB harvesting and is commonly processed together with FFB into crude palm oil (CPO) at the mill. The aim of this study was to identify pivotal points of FFA formation during the process of crude palm oil production.
  • How can FFA be released naturally in CPO?
  • Other than that, FFA also can be released naturally in CPO by microbial lipases process and also during storage when the oil response with eater . The techniques to measure the amount of free fatty acid in other oils is similar with the process used in palm cooking oil.
  • Where does FFA Formation occur in crude palm oil production?
  • The aim of this study was to identify pivotal points of FFA formation during the process of crude palm oil production. Results: The present study shows that the highest FFA accumulation occurred during the conveying process at the mill before sterilisation due to significant fruit damage.
