oil extraction rate for palm kernel in Ghana

Energy analysis for efficient mechanisation of palm oil extraction in

Oil extraction rates (OER) are lower for most of the processors in Ghana, averaging at 10-14% as opposed to a possible 19-25% resulting in lower total palm oil yield (Adjei-Nsiah et al., 2012b). The expansion of oil palm cultivation in order to soar up palm oil yield and lower cost of production is often linked to deforestation.

Processing practices of small-scale palm oil producers in the

Ghana produces about 2,000,000 metric tons of oil palm fruits annually, and small-scale processors contribute about 60% of crude palm oil production. The country is not self-sufficient in the fats and oils needed for industrial use and home consumption. A large percentage of the palm oil produced by small-scale processors cannot be utilized by the larger scale industries in Ghana or abroad

Traditional Palm Kernel Oil Processing in Ghana Process and Product

Two palm kernel processing methods were observed in the areas surveyed. All the respondents used a method based on roasted kernels. This method yields the characteristically dark brown, strong scented and strong flavoured palm kernel oil commonly found on the local markets.

Executive Summary Palm kernel oil is an important component of Ghanaian cuisine and rural industry. The traditional method of oil extraction currently utilized in rural areas is arduous, time consuming and inefficient. To mechanize the oil extraction process, a screw press implement for the MultiFunction Platform diesel engine was designed.
