First, put the crude oil into oil refining tank, stirring quickly, and simultaneously heating by steam. And then add the hot water. It is the most important stage , you should manage the water amount, temperature and water adding speed. At the same time, alkali is added to remove the FFA.

Next, Inhaling the definite quantity de-coloring agent (active clay, active carbon) into the oil by vacuum, then they are continue stirred and heated for  25mins. After pumping the oil and clay mixture into vibrating filter to remove the waste clay, the de-colorization is finished.

After the decolorized oil pumped to the deodorization pot or the deodorization tower, it’s begin to heat. When the temperature reaches above100℃, the direct steam is added to take the odors away.

After all of these, the palm oil should be cooled in vacuum cooling tank. When the temperature is nearly 80℃, it can be transferred  to another  container, then we got the refining palm oil.

After the refinery palm oil processes, the refining palm oil have different kinds of usages. It is edible oil, and also can be used for other purposes. It is widely used in food manufacturing and production, and the other 10% of the palm oil is mainly used in soap and oil chemical production.
