Brief Overview
Palm kernel olein is the liquid component of palm kernel oil obtained from fractionation. Palm kernel olein is a light-colored oil. The oil characteristics of palm kernel oil are similar to refined coconut oil but more liquid at ambient temperature. It has excellent flavor stability and storage quality. It contains fewer short-chain constituents of C6, C8, and C10 compared with refined coconut oil. Besides, palm kernel olein is used as raw material for producing RBD palm kernel olein.
Manufacturing Process
Initially, palm fruits are gathered from plantations and subsequently threshed. Threshing allows the shell to be removed from the core of the fruit. The removed shell is sterilized for a period of time before the fruits are pressed by utilizing a mechanical press. The pressurized palm fruits are squeezed and the crude palm oil is extracted from the fruits. Further, distillation is conducted to separate the stearin (solid) and olein (liquid) of crude palm oil.
