Palm oil and palm olein frying applications.
Several million tones of palm oil and palm olein are used annually in the world for frying. This paper will discuss their frying performances in three major applications - industrial production of potato chips/crisps, industrial production of pre-fried frozen French fries and in fast food outlets. In the first study, about four tones of potato chips were continuously fried 8 hours a day and fiv...
متن کاملProduction of Biodiesel from Sludge Palm Oil by Esterification Process
Sludge palm oil (SPO) is an attractive feedstock and a significant raw material for biodiesel production. The use of SPO can lower the cost of biodiesel production significantly. In this study biodiesel fuel was produced from SPO by esterification process using P-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) as acid catalyst in different dosages in presence of methanol to convert free fatty acid (FFA) to fatty a...
متن کاملBiodiesel Production from Palm Oil using Heterogeneous Base Catalyst
In this study, the transesterification of palm oil with methanol for biodiesel production was studied by using CaO–ZnO as a heterogeneous base catalyst prepared by incipient-wetness impregnation (IWI) and co-precipitation (CP) methods. The reaction parameters considered were molar ratio of methanol to oil, amount of catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time. The optimum conditions—15:1 ...
متن کاملTraining Simulator Development for Palm Oil Based Biodiesel Production
This research aims at developing anoperator training simulator (OTS) using AspenOTS Frameworkfor fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) production plant. All over the world, there is an increasing interest towards the use of vegetable oils in much desired ecofriendly biodiesel production. In view of environmental concerns due to high polluting nature of fossil fuels and also because of the limited avai...
متن کاملRbd Palm Olein-based Methyl/ethyl Esters
In this study, transesterification of refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) palm olein was carried out with methanol, ethanol and their mixtures at various methanol/ethanol ratios, while maintaining the molar ratio of oil to alcohol at 1:6. Potassium hydroxide was used as the catalyst. The process variables were temperature, methanol/ethanol molar ratio and amount of catalyst. The optimum biod...
