For input capacity more than 20 tons per day , total palm oil production process includes three workshops: Palm oil pre-press machine, palm oil extraction and palm oil refining. You can customize your palm oil production equipment according to your capacity.
Palm oil production process:
1. Palm oil pre-press
FFB after sterilizing, threshing and crushing will be pre-pressed, which is not necessary to press as much oil as we can because pressed cake will be extracted.1. Palm oil pre-press

2. Palm oil extraction
Palm oil extraction is using solvent to extract oil from palm cake, finally oil residue inside meal is less than 1%. And dry meal is better than cake for animal feed. So palm oil extraction is becoming more and more important for palm oil production.

3. Palm oil refining and fractionation
Palm oil refining has two ways : chemical refining and physical refining, here is talking about chemical refining, which means using alkali to neutrallize free fatty acid inside palm crude oil. Fractionation adopts differnt temperature to make stearin frozen and separated from olein.
