- Do processing parameters affect the yield of palm oil?
- Conclusions The results have demonstrated that processing parameters affect the yield of palm oil. It has been established that: 1. Increase in extraction pressure increases oil yield. Pressures above 25 MN/m 2 are however not to be used as these pressures do not increase yield significantly.
- Why do we need to conduct a research on palm oil processing?
- Therefore, there is need to conduct this research in order to determine the appropriate processing conditions in terms of sterilization time, digestion time and screw speed required for optimum oil yield and screw press operation which will in turn give maximum oil yield and more profit for palm oil processors and farmers.
- How to choose the best palm fruit processing conditions?
- For palm fruit processing, there is therefore the need to carefully select the processing conditions that will give the least solid impurity content of the oil as a measure of crude palm oil quality, highest oil yield and best oil quality.
- Do processing conditions affect the efficiency of a screw press machine?
- Investigations were carried out on the effect of processing conditions (sterilization time, digestion time and screw speed) on the efficiency a typical screw press machine. Palm fruits were collected, cleaned and sterilized for 30, 60 and 90 min; then digested for 4, 7 and 10 min and later pressed at a screw speed of 4, 10 and 16 rpm.
- Which processing factors affect oil yield?
- Processing factors known to affect yield of oil include sterilization time, digestion time and applied pressure (Baryeh, 2001., Owolarafe et al., 2002). Increase in sterilization time and digestion time has been observed to increase oil yield. Palm fruit bunches were obtained fresh and processed immediately in order to get accurate results.
- Does extraction pressure increase oil yield?
- Extraction pressure ranged from 5 to 35 MN/m 2, heating time 10 to 40 min, heating temperature 80°C to 140°C and extraction time 2 to 30 min. Oil yield increased with extraction pressure up to 25 MN/m 2. Extraction pressures higher than 25 MN/m 2 did not result in any significant increase in yield.
