| Abstract | Decades of progress in the palm oil industry sees very little changes in the actual miller?s main objective; high oil extraction rate (oer). Oer hovers around 21 to 22%. Undoubtedly some countries do exceed this rate, which is established at 24%. Pisifera with oil exhibiting high iodine value (iv) has the lowest oil to bunch ratio, approximately 17%, while Dura exhibits low mesocarp to nut ratio. Their cross, the current Tenera, has an oil to bunch ratio of between 28 and 30%. The morphology of the fresh fruit bunch (ffb) does not admit oil extraction techniques using dryers and solvents. The current milling process involving ffb sterilization, clarification and purification to obtain crude palm oil (cpo). Oer values are dependent on the fruits. Sterilization determines the part of the fruit in bunches and conditions the detached fruits. Several bunch stripping methods have been tried to ensure that fresh fruit fibers have the least oil content. Changes have also been made to speed up the sterilization process and to have better cooked fruits for the subsequent oil recovery steps. The ?horizontal? sterilizer technology has been left unchanged for years until very recently, with the incorporation of continuous sterilization processes and vertical and spherical sterilizer set-ups. This paper attempts to explore factors to differentiate the effectiveness of the sterilization techniques and determine factors affecting the oer. |
