  • How can Malaysia improve the oil extraction rate?
  • One strategy is to improve the oil extraction rate (OER) during the milling process. The average OER in Malaysia has remained stagnant between 19 and 21% for the past 40 years. Based on the world production of palm oil in 2018, approximately 3 million tonnes of additional palm oil can be produced globally with a 1% increase in OER.
  • How is the efficiency of palm oil mills evaluated?
  • Similarly, the efficiency of mills in terms of their ability to extract starch or sugar can be evaluated if the quality of the product entering the mills is known. In oil palm, the FFB received at palm oil mills is graded for ripeness and other criteria that may affect the milling process and oil extraction rate (OER).
  • Does increasing oil extraction rate improve sustainability?
  • Increasing oil extraction rate (OER) improves sustainability Factors affecting OER and the methods to improve OER are discussed OER must not be improved at the expense of oil quality An industry-feasible method is still required
  • How do palm oil mills calculate OER?
  • The palm oil mills process FFB of unknown oil content from many sources, and then estimate the OER based on the amount of oil they produce.
  • Which extraction method gives the highest oil yield?
  • The recovery efficiency varies depending on the extraction methods: soxhlet extraction, cold extraction and reflux extraction. Reflux extraction was found to give the highest oil yield (i.e. 4.94% dry basis), whereas cold extraction and soxhlet extraction gave an oil yield of 4.35% and 3.78%, respectively (Neoh et al. 2011 ).
  • How does a palm oil mill work?
  • A palm oil mill typically adopts a solvent-free process that uses steam and water for oil extraction. Interestingly, the process to extract the oil from the palm fruitlets has remained relatively unchanged for the past 50 years. Figure 1 shows the block flow diagram of a typical palm oil mill for the production of crude palm oil.
