REFINING OF CRUDE PALM OIL
 Thecrude palm oil obtained from the mill is dark
orange in colour. Before finding its many uses in
the market ,the crude oil has to undergo the
process of refining oil.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF
REFINING OF PALM OIL…………
 To further a refined to get a wide range of palm
oil product of specified quality.

OLEOCHEMICAL
INDUSTRY
 The large availability of the raw material had
caused the changing in the Malaysia palm oil
industry towards creating capacities for producing
oleochemicals.
 Its derived from plant and animals fats.
PURPOSED
 Due to increased in the capacity of producing the
fatty acid.
 Its were cheaper.
