Palm Oil Milling Process in Large Complete Palm Oil Plant
Complete palm oil production process in large scale or industrial scale palm oil factory begins with harvesting the fresh fruit bunches (FFB) of oil palms. After the fruit is harvested, it is processed in a palm oil mill, where the FFB is sterilized, digested, and pressed to extract the palm oil. The extracted oil is then clarified and dried before being sent for fractionation, which involves the separation of the various triglycerides in the oil. It generally requires a big investment.
