Palm oil

CAS Nr.

Body

Palm oil is derived from the fruit of the oil palm tree. The harvested fruit bundles are first cooked with high pressure steam to soften the fruit, sterilize it, stop enzyme activity and burst the small oil sacks inside the fruit. The fruit is physically separated from the stalk and pressed to release the oil from the pulp.
