Small Scale Palm Oil Refining: A Starter's Guide to Essential Equipment & Process

Crude palm oil is a raw commodity, but its refined version—with improved color, neutral odor, and superior quality—commands higher profits and broader market access. For newcomers entering this lucrative field, a small scale palm oil refining mill represents the perfect entry point. Yet, the key to success lies in understanding not just the “why,” but the “how”: what equipment is needed and how it transforms crude oil into a premium product.

Essential Equipment in a Compact Palm Oil Refining Mill
A typical small-scale setup utilizes a batch processing system, which is cost-effective and flexible for varying production volumes. The essential equipment lineup forms a complete processing circuit:

Heart of the Process: Three core tanks: the refining tank (for degumming and deacidification), the decolorization tank (for bleaching), and the deodorization tank (for final purification).

Critical Support Systems: A steam generator provides the necessary steam and vacuum, while a filtration system (like a plate filter) removes spent bleaching agents and impurities.

The Heating Decision: The main system variation lies in the heating method. You can opt for an electric heating system integrated into the tanks, or a thermal oil heating system. The latter uses a dedicated thermal oil heater to circulate hot oil, offering more uniform and efficient heat transfer for slightly larger or more consistent operations.

The Five-Step Palm Oil Refining Process
Regardless of the heating choice, the process follows a proven chemical and physical pathway to purity:

Degumming: In the refining tank, phosphoric acid and water are added to convert and hydrate gums, allowing them to be separated.

Deacidification: An alkali is introduced to neutralize free fatty acids, forming soapstock which is then removed.

Decolorization: The oil is heated and mixed with bleaching earth, which adsorbs pigments and unwanted color bodies.

Filtration: The oil-clay mixture is pumped through a filter, separating the clean oil from the used adsorbent solids.

Deodorization: Under high temperature and a strong vacuum, volatile odor compounds and remaining moisture are stripped away, yielding stable, tasteless, and odorless refined palm oil.

How palm oil processing differs from the pressing of general oilseeds

Palm fruit and general oilseed like peanut, sunflower, soybean, cottonseed are different oil seeds, and need different pressing processes and machines. In the pressing process of palm oil and common oil, it generally requires several steps of pretreatment, pressing, clarification and drying. Below we will compare in detail the difference between palm oil making and general oilseed press.

1. Raw material differences

Palm oil is extracted from the fruit of the oil palm tree (Elaeis guineensis). The raw material is the fresh fruit bunch (FFB), which contains a mix of both mesocarp (the fleshy part of the fruit) and kernel (the hard inner seed). The mesocarp, which makes up the majority of the fruit, is rich in oil and is the primary source for palm oil extraction. The kernel, though also containing oil, is usually processed separately to extract palm kernel oil (PKO).

In contrast, general oilseeds like soybeans, sunflower, and canola are primarily seeds or grains that are processed to extract their oil. These seeds are typically smaller, with a higher proportion of oil in the seed compared to the fruit of the oil palm. For example, soybeans consist of around 18-20% oil content, while sunflower seeds can have around 40% oil content, depending on the variety.
 

2. Extraction process differences

The extraction of palm oil involves a multi-step process, starting with the harvesting of the fresh fruit bunches. After harvesting, the fruit undergoes sterilization (usually with steam) to loosen the fruit from the bunch and to deactivate enzymes that could degrade the oil quality. The next steps include:

Threshing: Separation of individual fruits from the bunches.

Sterilization: Heat treatment to soften the fruit and facilitate oil extraction.

Pressing/Extracting: The softened fruits are mechanically pressed or subjected to a chemical solvent extraction process to extract the oil. After pressing, crude palm oil (CPO) is obtained, and it undergoes further purification.

Additionally, the palm kernel is separated and undergoes its own pressing process to extract palm kernel oil (PKO), which is a distinct product with different properties and uses.

                                                 Palm oil extraction machine

For general oilseeds, the extraction process typically involves cleaning, conditioning, and then pressing the seeds using either mechanical or hydraulic presses. In many cases, the oil content of oilseeds is high enough to be efficiently extracted using a mechanical press. The process usually involves

Cleaning: Removing impurities like dirt, stones, and other foreign particles from the seeds.

Conditioning: Heating and conditioning the seeds to optimize the oil extraction.

Pressing: Extracting the oil through a screw press or hydraulic press.

If necessary, solvent extraction methods (like hexane) can also be used to extract additional oil from the pressed cake. This method is commonly employed for seeds with lower oil content, such as soybeans.

                                         Oil pretreatment and pressing machine

3. Equipment and machinery design

The equipment used for palm oil extraction and general oilseeds extraction differs significantly in terms of design, due to the different physical properties of the raw materials. Palm oil extraction typically requires larger and more robust equipment capable of handling the high moisture content and larger size of the fresh fruit bunches.

Palm oil press: We offer a range of equipment specifically designed for palm oil extraction, including fresh fruit bunch thresher, sterilizers, digesters, screw presses, and palm oil clarifiers. These machines are built to handle the special requirements of palm fruit, such as the need for sterilization and efficient separation of the fruit and kernel.

Oilseed press: For general oilseeds, the equipment used are typically smaller and more straightforward. These include seed cleaners, oilseed conditioners, oil presses, and sometimes solvent extractors. Our screw press and hydraulic press machines are designed for different types of oilseeds, ensuring the best oil yield and minimal loss.

4. Oil yield and quality

Palm oil extraction typically yields a higher quantity of oil compared to many other oilseeds. The oil yield can be as high as 20-25% of the fruit’s total weight. Furthermore, palm oil contains a unique composition of fatty acids that gives it desirable cooking properties, including high oxidative stability and resistance to rancidity.

While the oil content of general oilseeds varies, the oil yield is typically lower compared to palm oil. However, oilseeds such as sunflower, rapeseed, and soybean produce oils that are preferred for specific applications due to their nutritional profiles, such as lower saturated fat content or higher unsaturated fat content.

5. Market applications

Palm oil is highly versatile and used across various industries. In addition to its common use in cooking and food products, it plays a significant role in the production of biodiesel, cosmetics, and personal care products. Its low cost and high yield make it an attractive option for large-scale commercial use.

General oilseeds are primarily used in food production (such as cooking oils and margarine), animal feed, and industrial applications. The oils extracted from seeds like sunflower, soybean, and canola are often seen as healthier alternatives, particularly due to their polyunsaturated fat content.

Henan Glory understands difference between palm oil making and general oilseed press. Our advanced, high-efficiency extraction equipment is designed to meet the specific needs of both oil making. Whether you are involved in large-scale palm oil production or processing other oilseeds, our range of equipment guarantees excellent oil yields, high product quality, and operational efficiency.

How about our 1-5tph palm oil making process?

Due to the difference in production capacity, palm oil making processes will be slightly different, the standard 1-5tph palm oil making process roughly includes: raw material reception, sterilizing, threshing, digesting, pressing and filtering. Doing Company has a rich experience in the palm oil making equipment manufacturing and palm oil plant installation, today, let me introduce you the specific palm oil making process. For the making process with small processing capacity, you can refer to: How to extract palm oil at home?

5tph small scale palm oil mill

Firstly, we should receive the palm fruit bunches timely. As we all know, fresh oil palm had better to being processed in the 48 hours after harvesting. So, it is necessary to install a raw material receive station to ensure the unity of material freshness. And it is also helpful to calculate palm oil yield by weighing the materials on this station.

Secondly, we can use the sterilizer to sterilize the oil palm fruit. In this step, sterilizer aims to make palm fruit bunches softer, which is convenient for subsequent processing. At the same time, sterilization can destroying enzymes in the flesh to prevent the free fatty acid content in the oil from rising.

Thirdly, we can use the drum type thresher to separate the palm fruits and the empty palm fruit bunches. Then we can transform the palm fruits to the following pressing station.

Fourthly, we usually use the digester and the palm oil press machine mashed the whole palm fruit into palm fruit pulp, and then palm oil is squeezed from the fruit pulp by the external mechanical force of the palm oil press machine. This step is also the most important step in the whole palm oil making process and the palm oil press machine is also the core equipment of all palm oil making machines. Lastly, we may filter the crude palm oil by plate and frame filter to remove the impurities in the crude palm oil.

Palm oil production process

 The above is the whole 1-5tph palm oil making process. As the professional palm oil processing equipment manufacturer and the producer, Doing Company can not only provide you with this small scale palm oil processing equipment, but also can offer you professional suggestions in the palm oil making processing process and palm oil plant installation.

How to process palm fruit into red palm oil？

 It takes mainly 5 steps to press palm fruit to obtain crude palm oil, including sterilization, threshing, digesting, pressing and filtration.

First of all, put the fresh palm fruit bunches in the fruit cage, and put the fruit cage in the sterilization tank with a row crane for sterilization. The function of palm fruit sterilization: on the one hand, it increases the humidity of the fruit, which is beneficial to the separation of the fruit from the fruit bunch. On the other hand, it destroys the activity of the fat-decomposing enzyme and slows down rancidity, so as to prevent the content of free fatty acids (FFA) from increasing, causing the oil molecules to condense on the surface and destroy the interior, the structure is easy to press, and is conducive to the subsequent separation of pulp and core. 

Secondly, The sterilized palm fruit bunches are de-fruited in a Drum Type Thresher. Realize fruit drop through physical collision. The obtained palm fruit is transported by auger and bucket elevator into the digesting tank for digester. Digesting the fruit is to better squeeze out the oil. Part of the oil produced during the digesting process will be transported to the temporary storage tank. Then press the digested palm fruit in the palm oil presser. After processing, you will get crude palm oil and mixture of fiber and nut. 

        The last step is to filter the crude palm oil. The vibrating screen filters large fibers, the clarification tank filters heavy impurities and silt, and the plate filter filters fine fibers and absorbs water. The vacuum drying system separates oil and water, and draining water is conducive to crude oil storage. Store the obtained crude oil in an oil storage tank. We get the crude palm oil.

The vibrating screen is double-layered. The clarification tank has a built-in heating coil. Because the crude palm oil has a low melting point, the heating coil can increase the fluidity of the oil. For clean oil, the vacuum drying system is carried out under vacuum and high temperature.

Here is the whole process flow chart with the machine:
