Application of steam boiler in palm oil mill

The steam boiler has very important application in the palm oil mill. It supply the steam and heating for the palm oil production, such as in sterilizer section, digester section, clarification section, and oil drying system. But in the different section, the functions are different.

Steam boiler has very important application in the palm oil mill

1) Sterilizer station: The steam boiler supply the steam to boil the palm fruit bunches, after sterilizer the bunches will be soft and not easy to rancidity, which is the basic conditions to produce the high quality crude palm oil.

2) Digester station: The steam boiler will supply the direct steam in the palm fruit digester, which will heat the digester. And also will form some condensate water, which will promote the palm oil flow smoothly and make the palm fruit digester is higher efficient.

3) Clarification tank: Due to the crude palm oil will curdle under the normal temperature, which will make it is hard to flow, normally we use the steam to heat it, and make the crude palm oil keep the liquid all the time.

4) Drying system: There will be some water in the crude palm oil during palm oil production process, it will shorten the storage period. The oil drying system is using the steam to heat the oil, and make the water in the oil become steam under the vacuum condition, then to take out by the vacuum pump.

5) Heating system: Because the curdle of the palm oil, to ensure the good flow during the production, all the tank and main machine need the heating by the steam, so the steam boiler will supply the steam for them, including crude palm oil storage tank.

From the above, we can see that the steam boiler is important for the palm oil mill, but there are many types of the boiler in the market, we must choose the most suitable type to reach the best effect. If you have any question about the boiler of palm oil mill, our engineer will supply you the professional proposal for you.
