Through the four processes of deacidification, degumming, decolorization and deodorization, palm oil refinery can remove most of the impurities in crude palm oil, so as to obtain refined palm oil that is beneficial to people's health. The palm oil refinery process has many advantages, such as extending the storage time of palm oil, benefiting health, earning more profits, etc.
1. Extend the storage time of palm oil
Free fatty acids are removed from crude oil during the deacidification stage of the refinery. The high content of free fatty acids will cause the oil to deteriorate in a short period of time, and the deteriorated palm oil cannot be eaten, which greatly affects the storage time of palm oil.
2. Health Benefits
The refinery process helps reduce the amount of harmful components in palm oil, such as free fatty acids and impurities. This makes it a healthier choice compared to crude palm oil. Refined palm oil is also rich in vitamin E, which has antioxidant properties that benefit skin health.
3. Make more profit
Refined palm oil has a higher market value than crude oil and is more profitable. At the same time, by-products such as soap liquid and fatty acids produced in the refinery process can be used to produce products such as soap, and more profits can be obtained by using these products.
4. Refinery type can be selected
Palm oil refinery can be divided into physical refinery and chemical refinery, depending on the refinery capacity and the by-products that investors want to obtain. The main difference is the deacidification part, where chemical deacidification removes the acid from the oil through acid-base neutralization. Physical deacidification, extracting free fatty acids from palm oil by high temperature evaporation.

Complete Guide to Setting Up a Palm Kernel Oil Mill Plant – Efficient & Automatic Small-Scale Production
If you are considering entering the edible oil industry, palm kernel oil production offers a lucrative opportunity, especially with today’s automated small-scale processing systems. A well-designed palm kernel oil mill plant can turn raw palm nuts into high-quality oil efficiently and profitably. In this guide, we’ll walk through the entire automatic palm kernel oil processing line, perfect for small oil mills looking to improve yield and reduce labor costs.
Why Choose an Automatic Palm Kernel Oil Processing Plant?
Automation in oil milling isn’t just about reducing manual work—it’s about: (1) Higher oil yield through precision-controlled steps (2) Consistent oil quality with regulated temperature and moisture (3) Lower operating costs over time (4) Scalable production suitable for small mills planning to grow
Step-by-Step Process in a Modern Palm Kernel Oil Mill Plant
1. Fiber Separation The process begins with separating palm kernel from fiber. An automated fiber separating machine uses a rotating triangular shaft to gently agitate the mixture, allowing fiber to fall through while kernels move to the next stage.
2. Cracking & Shell Separation Palm nuts are sorted by size before being cracked in dedicated palm kernel crackers. This tailored cracking reduces kernel breakage. After cracking, an air separation column separates kernels from shells based on density—kernels drop down while lighter shells are blown out.
3. Crushing Due to their hardness, palm kernels are crushed into small pieces (4–6 mm) to increase surface area. This step ensures better heat and moisture penetration during cooking.
4. Cooking / Roasting The crushed kernels enter a drum roaster, where temperature and moisture are carefully adjusted. Proper cooking improves oil release and flavor stability.
5. Oil Pressing A specially designed screw palm kernel oil presser applies continuous mechanical pressure to extract oil. Our engineered press is known for high extraction rates and durability.
6. Oil Filtration Finally, crude oil passes through a plate-frame filter to remove impurities, resulting in clear, market-ready palm kernel oil.

If you want to refine crude palm oil, you had better to know some related things about palm oil refining plant in advance, such as the crude palm oil refining process, the types of palm oil refining equipment, how to select suitable palm oil refining equipment, the national standard of palm oil, etc. Knowing these will help you finish your project faster.
1. The feature of crude palm oil refining process
You should know that crude palm oil refining process is different from other kinds of crude vegetable oil refining process, which is related to the characteristic of crude palm oil.
In crude palm oil, there is less colloidal impurities, but higher acid value and more pigment. So to refine crude palm oil is able to use dry degumming method to remove colloidal impurities, which has advantage of less waste water. As for high acid value, we recommend to adopt physical refining method to remove the free fatty acid. Besides, the dosage of white clay in decolorization process will be more. If you want to set up a palm oil refining plant, it is very necessary for you to discuss the palm oil refining process with engineers.
2. The types of palm oil refining equipment
The types of palm oil refining equipment are divided into three kinds: Batch type, semi-continuous and full continuous. They have different daily processing capacities, from 1tpd to 1000tpd.
3. How to select suitable palm oil refining equipment
It should depend on your budget. Because the palm oil refining equipment with advanced crude palm oil refining process usually is with high cost and large daily processing capacity. If your budget is limit, you can select small kind of crude palm oil refining machine, such as 1tpd, 2tpd, 5tpd batch type palm oil refining machine. And then you can expand your palm oil refining plant later if you have more capital.
4. The national standard of palm oil
Another thing you should know is the national standard of crude palm oil in your country. Doing this is to make sure that the palm oil refining equipment you bought can produce eligible refined palm oil. Besides, if you plan to set up a palm oil refining plant, you must talk this national standard with the engineer to make sure that the final oil can be qualified.
All in all, if you want to refine crude palm oil, welcome to ask us. We Henan GLORY Company has more than 10 years experience. As long as you want to set up a palm oil refining plant, any questions will be welcomed.
For decades, manual separation of palm kernels from their shells has been a major bottleneck for palm oil mills. It's a process synonymous with high labor costs, slow output, and inconsistent quality that directly impacts your final oil yield.
But what if there was a way to automate this entirely?
The solution lies in an integrated automatic palm kernel cracker and separator system. This technology is revolutionizing how modern mills operate, transforming a costly challenge into a streamlined, profitable process. Let's dive into how this system works and why it's an essential upgrade for your business.
The Problem: Why Manual Separation is Costing You Money
Sticking with traditional manual methods means accepting several critical inefficiencies:
Skyrocketing Labor Costs: Manual separation is incredibly labor-intensive, requiring multiple workers for minimal output.
Unacceptable Slowdowns: The process is slow, creating a significant bottleneck in your entire production line.
Poor Kernel Quality: Hand-separated kernels often have higher moisture content and are more likely to be broken or contaminated with shell fragments, which degrades the quality of your precious palm kernel oil.
The Solution: A Look Inside the Automatic Palm Kernel Cracker and Separator
An automatic palm kernel cracker and separator system is a series of interconnected machines designed to handle the entire process from raw nut to clean kernel. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the workflow:
Fiber Separation: The process begins by feeding the palm nuts into a Fiber Separator. This machine effectively scrubs and cleans the nuts, removing any residual fibers that could interfere with subsequent steps.
Grading & Sorting: The cleaned nuts are then elevated into a Grade Sieve Separator. This crucial component sorts the nuts by size into large and small categories. Pre-sorting is vital for optimizing the cracking efficiency in the next stage.
Precision Cracking (The Core of the Palm Kernel Cracker and Separator System): This is where the palm kernel cracker comes into play. In a high-efficiency setup, you will find dual palm kernel crackers—one calibrated for large nuts and another for small nuts. This specialized approach is the key to significantly reducing the broken kernel rate and maximizing the peeling rate, ensuring you get more high-quality, intact kernels from your raw material.
Efficient Separation: After cracking, the mixture of kernels and shells moves to the Air Separation Column. Here, the system cleverly utilizes the difference in density between kernels and shells. The heavier kernels fall straight down for collection, while the lighter shells are pneumatically blown out and captured by a Cyclone system. The result is a clean, highly efficient separation.
Key Benefits of Automating Your Process
Investing in a palm kernel cracker and separator system delivers immediate and long-term returns:
Drastic Reduction in Labor Costs: Automate the most labor-heavy step and reallocate your workforce.
Massive Boost in Efficiency: Process vastly higher volumes of nuts in the same amount of time.
Superior Product Quality: Achieve a higher purity of kernels with less breakage and moisture, leading to a better quality of palm kernel oil.
Excellent Return on Investment (ROI): The savings on labor and the increased output quickly pay for the system itself.
