Studies on bleachability of palm kernel oil, olein and stearin : Optimum conditions and effects on composition and quality

The optimization of small scale refining for the Seed Crushers and Oil Processors’ Association (SCOPA) was studied. The performance of three types of bleaching earths, WACSupreme, Pure-Flo, SBE Gold and two types of degumming agents, phosphoric acid and water were compared. The samples used were crude palm kernel oil and its fractions. The effects of […]
