  • What are the prospects for palm oil production in Ghana?
  • The demand for palm oil machine is very large .So the prospects for the palm oil production in Ghana is profitable. However, the traditional palm oil manufacturing method has can't meet the market demand of palm oil. The features of traditional palm oil manufacturing method:
  • How many palm oil processing units are there in Ghana?
  • Available data indicates that there are more than 400 small-scale palm oil processing units in Ghana (Fold and Whitfield 2012) most of which are sited in small towns and rural communities.
  • What are the different types of palm oil processing plant?
  • The new type palm oil processing plant includes palm fruit reception machine, sterilizing machine, threshing machine, digesting machine, pressing machine, crude palm oil clarification machine, palm oil storage equipment , palm kernel recovery equitpment etc. The combination of these machines can effectively extract palm oil from palm fruit.
  • How is crude palm oil stored in a tricanter?
  • Before the crude palm oil (CPO) is ready for storage in the clear oil tank and further processing in the refinery and fractionation plant (see ‘Investment programme’), it passes through a vacuum dryer to reduce the moisture content in order to slow down hydrolysis and oxidation. The bottom phase is the sludge which goes into the tricanter.
  • What is the bottom phase of palm oil tricanter?
  • The bottom phase is the sludge which goes into the tricanter. There, the remaining oil is recovered, while palm oil mill effluent (POME) and solid waste are separated.
  • What is the industrial site of gopdc?
  • The industrial site of GOPDC comprises: a water treatment plant. The fresh fruit bunches (FFB) are brought to the mill by trucks which are weighed on the weigh bridge before emptying their content in large cages at the offloading bay. These cages are placed into sterilizers.
