  • Can motorized oil palm fruit rotary digester be used in mass processing?
  • An investigation on the development of motorized oil palm fruit rotary digester by Asoiro and Udo (2013) recommended that manufacturers should take up this innovation of the motorized oil palm fruit rotary digester and implement it in the mass processing of red oil palm fruit for export, domestic and industrial uses. III. METHODOLOGY
  • How efficient is an oil palm fruit digester?
  • An oil palm fruit digester was designed, fabricated and tested. The materials for fabrication were sourced locally. The machine was tested for throughput capacity (Dc) and efficiency (η). Average throughput capacity of 330.91 kg/h and efficiency of 62.35% were obtained.
  • What is the average throughput capacity of a palm fruit digester?
  • Average throughput capacity of 330.91 kg/h and efficiency of 62.35% were obtained. Rate of digestion increased with the increase in mass of the digesting palm fruits while the efficiency of the oil palm fruit digester decreased with increase in mass of the digesting palm fruit in some cases. The machine is simple to operate and maintain.
  • Can a palm fruit digester extract Palm oil without breaking nuts?
  • The need for a more efficient process for extracting palm oil has made researchers sought for a palm fruit digester that can carry out the extraction process without breaking its nuts or having low belt drive. Hence, for an efficient palm oil extraction system, a proper design that can guarantee capacity and efficiency is fabricated.
