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. Malaysia is the largest exporter and producer of crude palm oil in the world.
The crude palm oil is gathered from the mesocarp of the palm oil. 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. Further, due to its low costs and oxidative stability, palm oil has grown popular in these regions.
As mentioned before, crude palm oil that is extracted contains impurities that require a refining process to improve the quality, physical appearance, oxidative stability, and other properties. The impurities are removed at a refinery plant, and thus, it is essential to ensure that the plant is modern and equipped with advanced technologies to make the process efficient.
