  • How much does a palm oil refinery plant cost?
  • The cost of palm oil refinery plant is affected by many factors Actually, the exact cost of a palm oil refinery machine would vary from the different requirements and specific situations. Usually, the equipment cost for setting up a palm oil refinery plant ranges from $ 60,000.00 to $ 300,000.00.
  • Why are small scale palm oil mills so popular?
  • One of the reasons why small scale palm oil mill are very common in the global market including Indonesia and Nigeria is that they are affordable and they are enough to produce sufficient amounts of palm oil for local business. For 1-10 ton per day palm oil production, the crane is not equipped in most cases.
  • Is there small-scale palm oil processing in Africa?
  • There are publications related to small-scale palm oil processing in Africa. For instance, Poku (2002) and Prasertsan & Prasertsan (2012) have written about this topic.
  • What equipment is used for palm oil production?
  • For 1-10 ton per day palm oil production, the crane is not equipped in most cases. The crane is used for lifting the palm fruits. In mini scale palm milling factory, this job usually done manually. View the photos below to see what the complete equipment looks like.
  • How a mini palm oil mill plant works?
  • For mini palm oil mill plant with 1~10 ton per day production output, the processing flow is relatively simple, including threshing, digesting and sterilizing, oil pressing and oil filtering.
  • What equipment does a mini production of palm oil mill require?
  • A mini production of palm oil mill basically includes belt conveyor, palm fruit thresher, screw conveyor, palm oil press, oil tank, oil filter and oil pump. Attention that not all equipment is necessary except palm oil press and filter. The equipment selection is based on your budget and business plan.
