Looking at the Palm Kernel Oil Production Business PKN – Palm Kernel Nut. The is the nut you get when the palm kernel’s hard shelled nut is cracked. The inner nut is the nut where the oil we are talking about is extracted from. PKO – Palm Kernel Oil. This is the actual oil that is extracted from palm kernel nuts, the actual product or one of the main product we are talking about here.. The PKO is mainly bought by vegetable oil refineries that now use it to produce what the average Nigeria housewife call “groundnut oil” in the open marketplace PKC – Palm Kernel Cake. This is another product that is derived from the palm kernel oil extraction process and it makes up good percentage of the palm kernel produce. The PKC is mainly used in producing animal/poultry feeds. PKSL—This is the sludge oil that is derived after filtration of the oil. This sludge oil can be reprocessed to obtain lower grade palm kernel oil normally bought by laundry soap makers. The prospective investor first of all gets the factory set up by either renting a factory house, building a permanent or a temporary structure and then acquire the machines and equipment. The main machines and equipment for a small scale set up are, the Expeller, the Toaster and the Filter press. |

Good afternoon folks Let us look at the machines and equipment needed to start a palm kernel oil production factory. The main machines are the oil expeller (crusher), the oil filter press machine and the toaster(dryer) for the small scale articulated vehicle axle locally assembled expeller set up. This type of set up is good for a start as it can be started with the most minimal capital outlay with good return on investment. This type uses the single press system and if properly managed achieves the normal 40% of oil extraction from the palm kernel nuts. 40% oil extraction is a norm and a standard for good expeller performance such that with good management an investor will make the normal profits acceptable in the industry internationally. The main machines needed in the other system are the Malaysian type Flender Gear oil expeller and the oil filter press machine. This system is known as the double press system where one expeller will be doing the first press and the second expeller will be doing the second and final press, the two expellers working simultaneously the first expeller feeding the second expeller. The first expeller will crush the palm kernel nuts, extract a good amount of the oil content in the nuts and then the output palm kernel cake still containing between 12% to 14% of the oil will be transferred to the second expeller for the second and final press. The final output palm kernel cake from the second expeller should contain less than 7% oil. Ideally it should contain about 5% if the expeller is optimally managed 1 Like |

Good evening folks Let us look at starting a small scale palm kernel oil production factory using the Nigerian built single oil press expeller (crusher), palm kernel nuts toaster (dryer), and oil filter press (for filtration). Let us start by describing the individual machines and their uses and the processes that the kernel nuts pass as they go as raw materials to the finished products ready for sale. In this single press system the nuts must be toasted before crushing with the expeller. The process of toasting can be done by spreading the kernel nuts in the sun for one day like from morning to the evening during the sunny dry season or for more than one day during periods when the sun is not shining well. The most common method is to use a toasting machine which can toast the nuts within an average of three and half hours depending on the season of the year or how wet the nuts are. The toasting machine is a cylindrical steel drum like tank that can contain about two and half tons of kernel nuts. The toaster machine is designed to dry the nuts and agitate the oil pores in the nuts in such a way that as the toasted nuts enter the crushing chamber of the expeller, the maximum oil in the nuts are released during the extraction process in the expeller. Note that our system do not roast kernel nuts. Roasted or fried kernel nuts will produce black coloured palm kernel oil which is almost looking like the type our great grand mothers make in the villages and used as pomade and to rob on the navels of new born babies. The colour of your palm kernel oil is very important because the vegetable oil refineries who are the off-takers place a premium on golden clear coloured palm kernel oil (PKO) 1 Like |

Crushing: The crusher also known as the expeller is the main oil extractor The expeller is made of the electric motor and/or diesel engine, the main axle (articulated vehicle axle like Mark, Styer or Kamaz truck axle) and the crushing chamber. The electric motor and/or diesel engine is the prime mover which propels the expeller mechanism. The axle reduces the speed of the prime mover, adjusts and transfers the speed to the main shaft which rotates inside the basket of the crushing chamber. . At the back end is the electric motor and at the front end is the cage and bars arrangement. All these are mounted and coupled together on a rectangular main frame solidly supported by three iron blocks. On top of the machine is a hopper through which the palm kernel nuts are fed into the machine The crushing chamber is the place where the grinding and oil extraction action takes place. The main cage of the chamber is where the crushing activities take place. The main cage is made up of a basket of strong iron bars arranged and woven together to form a cylindrical cage inside which the main shaft rotates This specially designed strong iron bars (normally made from the main springs of an articulated truck vehicle) are laid side by side, and nut spacers in between them. The cage is designed with open slots from where the expelled oil drains out. The bars are very well laid so that there would be no clogging of oil or loss of solids in the main cage. The extra heavy-duty main expeller shaft in the cage is made from ringed iron bar worms (normally made from the main springs of an articulated truck vehicle), that are assembled sequentially such that the worms snake round the shaft from back end to the tip. The thrust of the pressure worm is taken upon a large ball-thrust bearing which makes for smooth crushing operation and alignmentt. As the kernel nuts are fed into the expeller through a hopper (funnel) and picked up by the rotating shaft, the nuts are propelled by the spiral ringed worms on the shaft and as it moves the nuts through the tight iron cage, the nuts are crushed and the oil squeezed out from the ground and crushed nuts. An adjustable cone is mounted at the front end of the main shaft. For maximum oil yield and to obtain the desired thickness of the cake, the cone point is adjusted to the desired pressure region. For maximum performance during press operation the adjustment should be three and half threads-in of the main shaft. The oil drips out through slits made in the basket bars of the cage while the palm kernel cake whose oil is thoroughly extracted and dried is expelled through the front end of expeller cone point. The oil collects in a through under the expeller cage from where it is channeled into the primary tank of the filter press ready for filtration. The palm kernel cake is then collected into bags measured and packed and ready for sale. |

Good morning folks After the expeller has crushed the kernel nuts and the oil expelled, the crude mud coloured oil is channeled into the underground primary tank of the Filter Press. From the primary tank the filter press machine picks the crude oil and forces it through its filtration chambers where the dirt and debris are removed and the golden clean clear palm kernel oil pushed out through its taps into a changeling trough that channels the clean oil into a secondary underground tank ready for pumping out to the storage tank |
