Palm fruit oil mainly comes from its peel, the oil content of the peel of palm fruit is as high as 45% to 50%. In order to extract palm oil from palm fruit, palm oil mill plant generally needs to go through several processes of sterilization, threshing, digesting and pressing, oil clarification, and drying. The process of extracting palm oil from the palm fruit is as follows.
Palm oil processing equipment
1)Sterilization
In the sterilization station, we inject 0.3 MPa steam into sterilizer to process for 60 to 90 minutes to destroy the lipase activity and soften the fruit bunch to prepare for threshing below.
2)Threshing
The threshing section usually uses a thresher to centrifuge the palm fruit and the empty fruit bunch.Then the threshed palm fruits are transported to the digesting and pressing station.
3)Digesting and pressing
The digester can mash the palm fruit into fruit pulp, which is more conducive to squeezing out the palm oil. Then transport the fruit pulp to double screw palm oil press for squeezing, so that we can get the crude palm oil and the mixture of palm nuts and fiber.
4)Oil clarification
The crude oil clarification tank purify crude oil by sedimentation, filtration and separation. The machines used in this section are vibrating screen, crude oil clarification tank and filter. After processing in this section, the crude oil is basically free of solid impurities.
5)Drying
The clarified and filtered crude oil contains a large amount of water, which can easily make the crude oil rancid and deteriorate, which is not conducive to long-term storage. Therefore, it is necessary to pass into a vacuum drying system to stir and evaporate to separate the water to obtain high-quality crude palm oil.
Henan Glory Oils & Fats Engineering Co., Ltd. Is a professional manufacturer supplier of palm oil processing machine, we can provide a variety of palm oil processing machine with different output requirements. No matter what scale of palm oil processing equipment you need, we can provide you with the most suitable project solutions.
1.If your output is only 1-5tpd, we recommend you to buy a single screw palm oil press, which can help you to get crude palm oil. The threshing and cooking of crude materials can be done as the traditional palm oil processing method, but the speed will be slower.

2.If your output is 5-20tpd, we recommend that you can buy a small palm oil press production line, which can increase the processing speed of raw materials and product quality, which will greatly improve economic benefits.
Small palm oil press production line = threshing machine + double screw palm oil press machine + plate and frame filter.
Small scale palm oil processing equipments
3.If your output is over 20tpd, we recommend that you can buy a new type palm oil press production line, which can help you achieve large-scale and efficient production and make your economic benefits better.
New type palm oil press production line = sterilizer + threshing machine + digester + double screw palm oil press machine + crude oil clarification machine + vacuum drying system.
