OPTIMUM OIL AND KERNEL LOSSES CONTROL

Example of Optimum Oil and Kernel Losses Control ;


Press cake - Nut = 44% ; Fibre = 56%

Nut breakage in press fibre - Cracked nut < 5% ; Broken kernel < 1%

Ripple mill cracking - Whole nut <> 95%

Production kernel - Shell & Dirt < 6% ; Moisture < 7%

Press fibre / Cyclone fibre - Oil/sample < 4% ; OIL/NOS < 7%

Dry nut - Oil/sample < 1% ; OIL/NOS < 1%

Empty bunch - Oil/sample < 2% ; OIL/NOS < 7%

Steriliser condensate - Oil/sample < 1% ; OIL/NOS < 15%

Sludge - Oil/sample < 1% ; OIL/NOS < 15%

CPO production - FFA < 5% ; Moisture < 0.15% ; Dirt < 0.03%


OIL LOSS TO FFB LIMIT :

In fibre - 0.65
In nut - 0.10
In bunch - 0.40
In steriliser condensate - 0.10
In sludge - 0.35
Total - 1.60

KERNEL LOSS TO FFB LIMIT :

In dry shell / LTDS - 0.05
In wet shell - 0.06
In fibre - 0.21
Total - 0.32
