Refined palm oil (RPO) is made from crude palm oil (CPO), and can be fractionated into palm olein (POl) and palm stearin (PS).
Fractional crystallisation, dry fractionation, and solvent fractionation are the three basic fractionation procedures used in the PO industry.
In palm oil processing, a palm oil fractionation process consists of a controlled cooling of the oil, thereby inducing a partial, or 'fractional', crystallization. The remaining liquid (olein) is then separated from the solid fraction (stearin) by means of a filtration or centrifugation.
Benefits of RPO(refined palm oil)
It is well proven that RPO(refined palm oil), POl, and PS extends the oil's shelf life in the food business. These oils have a more significant saturated fat content and antioxidant compounds than some vegetable oils, such as olive and coconut oils, making them more stable.
Furthermore, when ingested modestly daily, palm oils, especially RPO and POl, provide health benefits such as cardioprotective, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and antithrombotic effects.
