Palm oil is the reddish-orange oil extracted from the fruit and
kennel of a palm tree (Elaeis Guineensis), a native to tropical
West Africa. It is the most widely produced vegetable oil in the
world. This edible oil contains a very high percentage of saturated
fat and used in making soaps, margarine, and lubricants, besides
being used in cooking.
Since palm oil has been consumed for its nutritional value and
health benefits for more than 5,**0 years, it is often said as
nature's gift to the world. Today, it is the most widely produced
vegetable oil of the world. In some Asian countries, it is termed
as ‘gold oil', for its perfect balance of saturated and unsaturated
fatty acids which do not adversely affect cholesterol levels.
The purest form of palm oil is easily available in the tropical West Africa, Indonesia and Malaysia, where it is widely cultivated. Besides being used in personal care products and toiletries, it is also used to treat wounds and as a feedstock for biofuel.
Palm Anatomy
Oil palm is the only fruit in the world that can give two types of
oil. We can obtain oil from the mesocarp (flesh of the fruit) and
the lauric palm kernel oil from the kernel at the fruit's core. It
is available in variety of forms in the market like RBD palm oil,
fractionated palm olein, crude palm oil, palm olein, palm stearin
and pal mid-fraction. This oil is used in many industrial and
domestic applications including cooking, soap & washing powder
manufacturing, etc.
Oil Palm Tree
This tropical plant commonly grows in warm climates at altitudes of
less than 1,**0 feet above sea level. The plant can reach ****0 ft.
in height in nature, but is rarely more than *0 or *0 ft. in
cultivation. Its leaf bases are persistent for years and are up to
*5 ft. in length, with leaflets numbering ******0 per leaf. The
fruit has a single seed – the palm kernel – protected by a wooden
endocarp or shell, surrounded by a fleshy mesocarp or pulp. Each
palm tree produces approximately one fruit bunch, containing as
many as ***0 fruitlets, per month.
Palm Oil Composition
Palm oil comprises of natural fats and oils including triglyceries,
mono and diglycerides. The oil palm gives its name to the *6 carbon
saturated fatty acid palmitic acid found in palm oil;
monounsaturated oleic acid is also a constituent of palm oil while
palm kernel oil contains mainly lauric acid. Besides this, it is
the largest natural source of tocotrienol, part of the Vitamin E
family. It also contains high concentration of Vitamin K and
dietary magnesium.
Palm Oil Processing
Palm oil is produced from the fruit and kennel of the palm tree.
The fruits are first collected and pressed, yielding a rich,
dark-red oil which is high in carotene. The oil thus obtained, is
exposed to heat through processing and cooking which turn its
colour to pale creamy color. Conversion of crude palm oil to
refined oil involves removal of the products of hydrolysis and
oxidation, colour and flavour.
After refining, the palm oil may be fractionated (separated) into liquid and solid phases by thermo-mechanical means (controlled cooling, crystallization, and filtering).

Uses of Palm Oil
As much as *0% of the palm oil produced finds its way into food
products, while remaining *0% is consumed by various industries. It
is widely used preparing margarine, shortening, and vegetable
cooking oil. In many parts of the world, it is still consumed in
its unrefined state to obtain a distinctive colour and flavour.
Palm oil is extensively used in preparing dry cake mix used for
baking biscuits, cakes and sponge cakes, soaps, sauces, fat
substitutes, etc. Recently, palm and kernel oils have been
increasingly used as biodiesel fuel.
It is also used in producing oleochemical products
