Lauric oils
Palm kernel oil and coconut oil are obtained from the oil palm and the coconut palm, respectively. Whereas palm oil is derived from the fruit of the oil palm, palm kernel oil is extracted from the kernel. Palm kernel and coconut oils are classified as lauric oils due to their high levels of lauric acid (C12:0). They are unique, as no other commodity plant oil contains more than 1% lauric acid (Pantzaris and Basiron, 2002). Unlike other commodity oils, the lauric oils (particularly coconut oil) contain mainly saturated fatty acids, making them highly resistant to oxidation. Common food applications of the lauric oils include spreads, candies, and nondairy creamers. Lauric oils possess melting behavior similar to that of cocoa butter (Pantzaris and Basiron, 2002).

Palm Kernel Products in Margarine

1.
Palm kernel oil forms a eutectic with palm oil in a mixture containing about 30% palm kernel oil. This feature is used to improve the mouth feel (rapid melting) in the following formula:
Palm oil 63%
Palm stearin 7%
Palm kernel oil 30%

2.
Palm kernel olein (30 parts) interesterified with palm stearin (70 parts) forms a margarine stock. To make margarine, 60 parts are blended with 40 parts liquid oil.

3.
Equal quantities of fully hydrogenated palm kernel oil and fully hydrogenated palm oil are interesterified. A margarine high in polyunsaturated fatty acids is made by blending 12% of this hard stock with 88% of a liquid oil such as sunflower oil.

Good morning and happy new year to all our customers, it lovely to see we all made it out alive.. God will keep seeing us through. Amen.

From the desk of Shine palms limited we want to welcome you to a successful new year.

INVESTING IN PALM KERNEL PROCESSING.




The oil that is derived from palm kernel is used for cosmetic product making and other vital industrial purposes. This business is one of the
hidden lucrative and profitable business that many people are yet to know much about or anything at all.
Unless you are told of how lucrative this business is by an insider, you will never believe it makes any money let alone making millions.
But I can tell you for certainty and for free that palm oil extraction business is a mega millions business.
Are you aware that palm kernel oil product is one of the few product you can sell right at the point of production, without necessarily needing to take it to the market?
Depending on your financial capacity, It can be run in a small, medium and large scale. You may be wondering but where can one get palm kernel in large quantity? It is produced in hundreds of thousands tones in the Eastern part of Nigeria annually.
All you need to do is to go set up this business around the east or you
transport the product to your desired location and mill.
It is however most profitable when you set it up where you can Palm Kernel Nuts PKN in large quantity due to transportation costs and other
logistics. Ondo state is also good at the production of palm kernel too, so you may decide to source there if you're within West.
DEFINATION OF TERMS
PKN - Palm Kernel Nut. The is the nut you get when a palm kernel's hard shell is broken. That's the nut where the oil we are talking about is extracted from.
PKO - Palm Kernel Oil. This is the actual oil that is being extracted from palm kernel nuts, the actual product or one of the main product we are talking about here.
PKC - Palm Kernel Cake. This another product that is being derived from the palm kernel extraction process and it makes up good percentage of the palm kernel produce.
PKS - Palm Kernel Sludge. Is a residue collected from palm kernel oil.
PRODUCTION PROCESS
In summary, the production line involves reception of good palm-kernel nuts, crushing the nuts with the nut-crusher, heating the seeds with the seed fryer so as to excite the oil molecules, and transferring the heated-crushed nuts to the oil press.
The oil press presses the seeds, and expels the oil content of the seeds through the oil exit chamber, and at the same time expels the cake through the cake exit chamber.
The crude oil is collected in drums or over-head tanks and left to settle. Since the sludge (sediments) is denser than the oil, it settles below the oil. The oil can then be collected separately from the sludge.
Two to three persons can conveniently operate the machinery. Below is a brief description of the machinery used.
1. NUT CRUSHER
»Function: Crushes the palm-kernel nuts and reduces it to smaller sizes so as to ease the oil extraction process.
»Price: N350, 000.
2. ELECTRICAL SEED FRYER
»Function: Fries/roast the crushed nuts. This process heats up the crushed nuts, thereby exciting the oil molecule content of the nuts.
»Price: N480, 000.
3. OIL PRESS (2T/D)
»Function: Presses the heated nuts and expels the oil content of the nuts via the oil exit chamber, while the cake is collected via the cake exit chamber.
»Price: N450, 000
Total: N1, 280, 000.
»Note: Their is an oil press with 4T/D capacity; it costs N800,000.
From the above, you will need about two million naira (N2,000,000) to procure and install the machinery and also procure about 10tons of raw materials (palm-kernel nuts).
PROFITABILITY
~1 tone of palm-kernel nuts gives an average of 410liters of oil, 540Kg of cake, and 25Kg of sludge.
~Average price for 1tone of palm-kernel nuts is N70,000.
~Average Selling Price of the products is
»Oil = N200 per litre
»Cake = N15 per Kg
»Sludge = N20 per Kg.
So if you process 1tone, you sell:
»Oil @ N200 x 410 = N82,000
»Cake @ N15 x 540 = N8,100
»Sludge @ N20 x 25 = N500
Total sales = N90,600.
Profit = N90,600 - N70,000= N20,000
The above profit is for processing 1tone of palm kernel.
Now, if you process 2 tone per day, you get N20,000 x 2 = N40,000 per day as profit, which by extension implies a monthly profit of N1,120,000 (24days). Profit increases as production increases.
Note: If you sell your products at a bit lesser price, you will generate much more sales and still make a reasonable profit. If you are a good negotiator, you can get the nuts as low as N(60,000 - 65,000) per ton.
CONCLUSION
Palm kernel processing business is lucrative and the market for the products is vast. It even extends to the international market. Get buyers, offer them good quality products at competitive prices, and that's it.

Which is Best for Your Hair, Red Palm
Oill or Palm Kernel Oil?


Oil palms give us an abundance of edible oils that are common to some and unfamiliar to others. There is more to palm oil than many are aware of and there is more than just one oil from the amazing African oil palm tree. The two most popular are the red palm oil and palm kernel oil. First off, they are not one in the same. They come from the same tree but where and how they are extracted differ greatly.

RED PALM OIL:-

Red palm oil is also known as crude or virgin red palm fruit oil and is one of the most nutritious, edible oils in the world. Doctor Oz says it is derived from the fruit of the oil palm tree or Elaeis guineensis it gets its name from the rich, deep red color in its natural, unprocessed state. According to Livestrong , red palm oil has been consumed for body and hair for over 5000 years and holds plentiful health benefits for both.

PALM KERNEL OIL:-

The seed inside the palm fruit is the palm kernel and the source of palm kernel oil. Oilypedia says it should not be confused with coconut oil, which is extracted from the coconut kernel, despite it having more saturated fat. Along with being rich in lauric acid, palm kernel oil is a stable cooking fat that is resistant to oxidation and going rancid, so it works well in food manufacturing.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? :-

They both come from palm trees, so that creates some confusion for many but that may be their only commonality worth mentioning. Red palm oil comes from the palm’s fruit while palm kernel oil comes from the palm’s seed. Over 80% of the fat in palm kernel oil is saturated compared to only 50% of red palm oil. Red palm get its color from heart-healthy carotenoids like lycopene and beta-carotene. Red palm oil also contains mostly palmitic acid and oleic acid instead of lauric acid like palm kernel oil, which is the reason for its lower saturated fat.

WHICH IS BETTER FOR HEALTHY HAIR? :-

Not all natural oils are the same nor do they harbor the same benefits for your bodies. It seems that every week we are discussing a different oil that yields longer, stronger tresses, but some oils have do not have many advantages and should either be used sparingly or not at all for beauty. For hair, red palm oil has toctrienols, which are members of the vitamin E family and has been used for many years in treating skin ailments. It is also found in many anti-aging products. Livestrong says many shampoos, conditioners, and soaps have palm oil in them to remove oil and dirt from the hair and skin, which includes the scalp.
There is a refatting agent present in red palm oil that restores the hair and skin’s natural oils that many shampoos and soaps strip away. Red palm oil also provides conditioning and softening to the hair for its deep moisturizing properties. According to Livestrong , our hair needs fat-soluble vitamin A and vitamin E to nourish our hair and roots, which can come from the red palm oil through the beta-carotene after being consumed and converted to vitamin A.
Livestrong also says one of the biggest benefits of palm kernel oil is its completely cholesterol-free and many believe this makes it much healthier than butter. It has vitamin K, which is an essential fat-soluble vitamin for bone health. Vitamin K also resists oxidation under high cooking temperatures and upon storage, which makes it a more favorable cooking oil.
Winning convincingly for moisturizing, cleansing, and nourishing, red palm oil is the oil that will care for your hair compared to palm kernel oil. It seems it can benefit all hair types, especially ones who tend to suffer from the drying effects of shampoos. If loss of moisture is also a concern than this oil would be perfect as well.

Palm kernel meal is an important feed ingredient and the by-product of the oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis Jacq.). This palm tree is cultivated for its oils rich in highly saturated vegetable fats: the palm oil, extracted from the fruit flesh; and the palm kernel oil, extracted from the fruit kernel. Palm oil is both a major staple oil (a "poor man’s cooking oil", common in South-East Asia and tropical Africa) and an indispensable ingredient for the food industry ( Prabhakaran Nair, 2010). It has also numerous non-food applications, including as a feedstock for biodiesel. Palm kernel oil, which is semi-solid at room temperature, is economically less important. The demand for palm oil, fueled by the growth of the Chinese and Indian economies, has been growing rapidly since the 1990s. Palm oil production doubled between 1996 and 2005 and increased yearly by 10% during the 2000s. Palm oil overtook soybean oil in 2004 to be the world’s leading vegetable oil (45 million t in 2010). The production of palm kernel oil, while less important (5.6 million t in 2010) overtook that of groundnut oil in 2007 ( FAO, 2012).
The oil palm tree
The oil palm is an evergreen monoecious tree, 18 to 30 m tall (Ecocrop, 2011 ; Ataga et al., 2007 ). Though the tree can live up to 200 years, its productive life is about 25-35 years as older trees are too tall and impractical to harvest ( Ecocrop, 2011 ). The tree has a stout trunk, up to 75 cm in diameter, a crown made of 40-100 fronds (leaves) spirally arranged at the top, and an adventitious root system ( Rossin, 2009 ; Ataga et al., 2007 ). The compound leaves are up to 8 m long with 250-350 leaflets irregularly inserted on the rachis (Ataga et al., 2007 ). Inflorescences are borne at the leaf axil. After pollination, female inflorescences develop into large and heavy fruit bunches bearing about 200-500 fruits (Ecocrop, 2011 ; Ataga et al., 2007 ). A tree may bear between 2 and 6 bunches a year. The fruit is a fibrous, ovoid drupe, 2-5 cm long and about 2 cm broad, usually orange when ripe. The fruit has a thin epicarp, a fleshy and oily mesocarp and a hard endocarp that contains an oil-rich endosperm (kernel) (Vaughan et al., 2009 ). Fruit bunches can be harvested 3 to 4 years after planting and the largest amount of fresh fruit bunches is obtained after 8 to 10 years ( Poonam Singh Nigam et al., 2009 ). The fruit bunches are cut off or knocked down carefully when the fruit is ripe (Ecocrop, 2011 ).
Palm oil and palm kernel oil extraction
The fruit yields two different oils:
Palm oil is extracted from the fleshy mesocarp and is rich in palmitic acid (42-47%) and oleic acid (37-41%) ( Basiron, 2005 ).
Palm kernel oil is extracted from the kernel and is rich in lauric acid (44-51%) (Gervajio, 2005 ).
In the traditional oil extraction process, the fruits are boiled, pounded in a wooden mortar, and the pulp is soaked in water until the oil rises to the surface. The oil is then skimmed off and boiled to remove the last traces of water ( Vaughan et al., 2009 ). In the industrial process (see Figure ), the fruit bunches are steam-sterilised to stop the formation of free fatty acids. The fruits are detached from the bunch and conveyed to a digester where they are heated, stirred and screw-pressed to extract the crude palm oil, which is put in clarifying tanks to remove dirt and moisture before decantation and drying (Teoh Cheng Hai, 2002). Industrial units can mill 20-60 t bunches/h (Rossin, 2009 ). The fruit yields about 43% of crude palm oil and 57% of press cake, which consists of 35% pericarp (fibre) and 65% nuts (Pickard, 2005 ).
The nuts remaining after the palm oil extraction process are separated from the press cake and cracked to release the kernels, which are crushed in a separate plant to obtain crude palm kernel oil (Teoh Cheng Hai, 2002 ). Palm kernels can be mechanically extracted or solvent extracted, a more efficient but more expensive process that is generally done in larger industrial units. The kernels are broken into small pieces, passed through rollers that reduce them into flakes, which are then steam-cooked and screw-pressed (mechanical extraction) or treated with a solvent (usually hexane). The resulting palm kernel oil is clarified in decanters ( Poku, 2002). Palm nuts consists of 83% shells and 17% kernels, which yield approximately 50% of each of palm kernel oil and palm kernel cake (Pickard, 2005 ).
Oil palm processing by-products
Oil palm processing yields numerous by-products.
Palm kernel meal is the main by-product of the palm kernel oil extraction process. It is a highly fibrous and medium grade protein feed, hence most suited to ruminant or rabbit feeding (Pickard, 2005 ). Palm kernel resulting from mechanical extraction contains 5-12% oil and solvent-extracted palm kernel meal contains 0.5-3% oil (Chin, 2001 ). Most of the palm kernel meal production goes to animal feeding (FAO, 2012).
Empty fruit bunches (50% of the fresh fruit bunches) are a moist (60% water) and bulky product used as mulch in oil palm plantations and orchards (Prasertsan et al., 1996 ).
Nut shells are less bulky than the fruit bunch but much more difficult to decompose. They are used as mulch in oil palm plantations or burned as fuel (Prasertsan et al., 1996).
Palm press fibre is the oily and fibre-rich by-product of palm oil extraction. It can be mixed with empty fruit bunches and nut shells and is usually burned to produce steam to generate electricity at the mill plant ( Pickard, 2005 ).
Palm oil mill effluent is the liquid residue of palm oil extraction and oil purification. It contains soil particles, residual oils and suspended solids. It can be further processed by decantation (sludge, slurry), filtering, centrifugation and drying (Pérez, 1997 ).
Other oil by-products should either be designated, by the term cake, the raw, unground product obtained from mechanical oil extraction, or meal , which is the ground or solvent-extracted product. However, both terms are used interchangeably in practice and this datasheet will only use the name palm kernel meal .
Distribution
80% of palm oil originates from Indonesia and Malaysia. Indonesia is the largest producer and exporter of palm oil and palm oil by-products. In 2010, this country produced 21.5 million t of palm oil (48% of world production) and 2.3 million t of palm kernel oil. Malaysia produced 17 million t of palm oil (38%) and 2 million t of palm kernel oil. The other 5 main producers (Nigeria, Thailand, Colombia, Papua New Guinea, Ecuador) represent less than 10% of the world production (FAO, 2012).
Palm kernel meal is an important feed commodity internationally traded with 90% of the production (5 million t) being exported, 50% of it to the European Union (FAO, 2012; USDA, 2013 ).
Processes
Several processes have been proposed to increase the nutritional value of palm kernel meal. The addition of enzymes has been shown to be beneficial in pig (Ao et al., 2011 ) and poultry diets (Soltan, 2009 ; Esuga et al., 2008;
Sundu et al., 2006 ; Sundu et al., 2005 ). Fermentation has also been tested in poultry ( Mirnawati et al., 2011 ; Dairo et al., 2008 ) and fish diets ( Hem et al., 2008 ; Ng, 2004).
Forage management
Yield
Oil palm is a high yielding crop, though productivity is variable, from 0.3 t/ha in Nigeria to 4.2 t/ha in Indonesia (Ataga et al., 2007 ). In optimal conditions, the fruit yield can be as high as 30 t/ha/year, which corresponds to 7 t/ha of palm oil, or 3 times the oil productivity of coconut and 7 times that of rapeseed. Palm kernel oil productivity is much lower and about 0.8 t/ha (Ecocrop, 2011 ; FAO, 2012).
Integrated farming systems
In Malaysia and Indonesia, palm oil is generally produced in large plantations owned by private companies, though smallholders account for as much as 33% of the output. Elsewhere, as in West African countries, smallholders produce up to 90% of the annual harvest (Vermeulen et al., 2006 ). Oil palm can be included in integrated farming systems where it is grown with companion crops such as legumes and grass grazed by livestock. In Malaysia, more than 60,000 cattle are raised in oil palm plantations ( Khusahry et al., 2003).
Environmental impact
The tremendous growth of oil palm production is a major cause of environmental concern and has become a matter of public debate since the 1990s.
Deforestation and biodiversity losses
In the past decades, millions of hectares of tropical rainforest in South-East Asia, which provides the highest biodiversity of any terrestrial ecosystem, have been converted to oil palm production. In 2010, Malaysia and Indonesia grew oil palm on 4 and 5 million ha respectively, a two-fold and seven-fold increase since 1990 (FAO, 2012). This high rate of deforestation has resulted in the loss of habitat for a number of key species, such as the orang-utan (Wakker, 2005 ; Wakker, 2000 ).
Land clearing practices
Land clearing for oil palm cultivation used to be done by burning felled biomass, which resulted in large emissions of greenhouse gases. A catastrophic forest fire in Indonesia in 1997, which was partly blamed on plantation owners, caused massive air pollution in South-East Asia. This led to a ban on burning in Asian countries with the adoption of zero-burning, which has resulted in shredding palm trunks and stacking them in the interrows (Mohd Noor, 2003; Mohd Hashim et al., 1993 ). Zero-burning allows recycling of large quantities of nutrients through the two-year decomposition process, improvements in the physical properties of the soil and reductions of 20-30% in the requirement for inorganic fertilizers during the first 4 years of growth (Prabhakaran Nair, 2010 ). An objection to zero-burning management is that unburned biomass promotes the breeding of diseases and pests such as the rhinoceros beetle ( Oryctes rhinoceros ). Integrated pest management systems involving a mix of cultural, physical, chemical and biological control have been developed in order to decrease the use of chemicals (Mohd Noor, 2003; Teoh Cheng Hai, 2002 ; Kamarudin et al., 1997 ; Chopra et al., 2005 ).
The soil is particularly susceptible to erosion during the clearance period, which may turn into an acute problem in upland regions (Wakker, 2005 ). In some cases, a leguminous cover crop is established to limit erosion, but this requires the preventive use of weed killers ( Mohd Noor, 2003 ).
Approximately 4% of palm tree plantations in Indonesia and Malaysia are on peat soils, which store large quantities of carbon. When these soils are drained for palm plantation, the increased aeration results in oxidation and in the release of carbon dioxide. Estimations for carbon emission in tropical peat soils vary between 10 and 20 t/ha/year (Schmidt, 2007 ).
Pesticides
Large scale oil palm cultivation may require up to 25 different pesticides, including Paraquat, a common herbicide. The use of Paraquat in palm oil production is controversial as this product is toxic to humans and could be dangerous for plantation workers (it has been prohibited in the European Union since 2007) (Wakker, 2005 ).
Waste management
Palm oil processing yields large quantities of solid and liquid wastes. The more fibrous wastes are generally used for energy production within the mill plant or may be valuable as mulch or as mushroom substrate (Chavalparit et al., 2006 ). Palm kernel meal is recycled in animal feeding. The most environmentally problematic palm oil waste is palm oil mill effluent: it was once estimated that a processing plant with a capacity of 10 tons fresh fruit per hour would require a water treatment plant comparable to that required by a population of half a million inhabitants (Brezing, 1986 ). Most mills have outdoor basins in which the effluent is stored and partly detoxified (by adding oxygen) but these basins easily overflow during heavy rain or intensive production. Some companies allow the liquid to flow directly into the rivers. Because of its high Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), palm oil mill effluent is highly polluting to waterways and has significant negative effects on aquatic life downriver ( Wakker, 2005 ).
Positive impacts
Oil palm is sometimes used for rehabilitating degraded areas. In Sumatra, it has been established successfully on abandoned farmlands taken over by Imperata cylindrica . Its shading effect is lighter than that of other plantation crops such as rubber or cocoa and it is suitable for undergrowth that can be grazed by livestock ( Orwa et al., 2009 ). Cattle in oil palm plantations participate in weed control: in Malaysia, reduction in weeding costs varied from 32 to 73%/ha/yr ( Sharun et al., 2003). Raising livestock in oil palm plantations is a subsidiary source of income (Orwa et al., 2009 ).

Palm kernel nut for sale,in large quantity interested buyers, should contact me.

You can contact me Sir, or you drop your contact , I will give you a call. Thanks anticipation.

The palm kernel is the edible seed of the oil palm fruit. The fruit yields two distinct oils: palm oil derived from the outer parts of the fruit, and palm kernel oil derived from the kernel.
The pulp left after oil is rendered from the kernel is formed into " palm kernel cake ", used either as high-protein feed for dairy cattle or burned in boilers to generate electricity for palm oil mills and surrounding villages.

Nursery of Tenera and Dura is ready for sale any interested person should contact me. Thank you

Palm kernel is the edible seed of the oil palm tree and the fruit is commonly known for its usefulness in producing two types of oil; palm kernel oil from the kernels and palm oil from the fleshy parts of the fruit. Palm kernel is originally from Africa especially Nigeria, Guinea, Angola and the Gambia before spreading to other parts of the world such as Central America, Madagascar, Pacific Oceans, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indian Islands, Sumatra and the West Indies. Ideally, a matured palm kernel tree grows up to 20 m tall and is usually single - stemmed.

The palm kernel tree is characterised by a stout trunk that grows up to 75 cm in diameter with an external root system. Normally, the palm tree grows approximately 30-100 leaves or palm fronds, which are spirally arranged at the top of the tree. Their leaflets are arranged on either side of the stem, especially in pairs that are opposite to each other and the leaves tend to grow between 3-5 m long. The palm kernel flowers are usually densely clustered with small flowers that have three sepals and three petals.

Healthier species of palm kernel fruit is the Elaeis guineensis popularly known as akwu ojukwu by the Ibos. Traditionalists believe that this species is very sacred because of its tendency to cure certain diseases as well as neutralise poisons and charms. Moreover, researchers agree that it is capable of curing certain illnesses and its oil is highly medicinal. Other palm kernel species that produce palm oil include Elaeis oleifera and Attalea maripa. The palm tree can reproduce for approximately 25-35 years and live up to 200 years. The fruits take approximately 5-6 months to mature from the onset of pollination to maturity.
A normal palm kernel produces approximately 30 leaves annually and each fruit comprises of a pericarp, which is an oily, fleshy outer layer of the fruit, with a single seed (palm kernel), which is also used for producing palm kernel oil. The tree undergoes pollination and afterwards the female inflorescences transform into big kernel bunches bearing approximately 150-500 fruits. A palm kernel tree can produce between 2 to 7 bunches of kernels in a year. Palm kernels are characteristically fibrous in texture, reddish in colour with an oval shape and they grow up to 2-5 cm long and do grow in big bunches. They are the primary source of palm oil and are rich in saturated vegetable fats.
