In order to produce refined, bleached palm oil (RBDPO),palm oil refining process is necessary.Palm oil degumming & deacidification process is the first step in palm oil refinery plant.Palm oil degumming process aims to removing the gum impurities in the crude oil to make it suitable for further refinery process.Palm oil degumming & deacidification process can realize both degumming and neutralization processes by adding alkali, water and acid.

Our crude palm oil refinery plant are specifically designed to give the minimum operation costs and maximum output results. For refining the edible oil, there are four basic processes in the palm oil refinery process: Degumming & Deacidification →Decolorization → Deodorization.

First process is Degumming & Deacidification (also called washing and neutralization) process in the palm oil refinery plant.There is still about 500ppm soap in the neutralized oil from the separator. To remove the remaining soap, add into the oil about 5~8% hot water, with water temperature 3~5 ℃ higher than the oil generally. To achieve more stable palm oil degumming effect, add phosphoric acid or citric acid during degumming process. The re-mixed oil and water in the mixer is heated to 90-95℃ by the heater, and then enters the wash separator to separate the remaining soap and most water. The water with soap and oil enters into oil separator to separate out oil in the water. Further catch the oil outside, and the wastewater is discharged to the sewage treatment station.

There is still moisture in the oil from the wash separator, and the moisture will affect the stability of the oil. So the oil at 90℃ should be sent to vacuum drier to remove the moisture, and then the dehydrated oil goes to the decoloring process. Finally, pump out the dry oil by canned pump.
