Why crude palm oil should be refined with oil refining machine?

What is palm oil fefining? And why crude palm oil should be refined with oil refining machine?
Crude palm oil extracted from palm oil pressing machine inevitably contains impurities. To make the standard edible palm oil, the impurities must be taken out; such a process is called “Refining” Oil refinery refers to a series of refining processes that can remove FFA, gums, waxes, phospholipids and free fatty acid (F. F.A.), pigment, off-flavor and other impurities in the oil. Edible palm oil refining machine is necessary for vegetable oils & fats or animal oils & fats so they can be used for cooking and frying foods.

What’s Edible Palm Oil Refining Process?
Edible Palm Oil Refining Process:
★ Degumming: Remove gums in the crude oil to improve oil edibility, storage and do well to downstream neutralizing section.
★ Neutralizing: Remove Free-Fatty Acids (FFAs) with caustic soda (NaOH). Soap stock is generate in this process.
★ Decolorizing /Bleaching: Remove color pigments contained in oils.
★ Deodorizing: Remove disagreeable flavor and odors that are naturally present or created during processing under high temperature.
★ Dewaxing (Optional): Oils like sunflower oil or maize germ oil (corn oil) have waxes present in them. At low temperatures these waxes give a hazy appearance to the oil. So in extremely cold areas, dewaxing should take into accout when processing these oil seeds.
