摘要

Palm kernel oil refining requires efficient degumming to remove phospholipids that negatively impact oil quality and stability. The optimization of phospholipids removal and oil quality parameters with three factors: FCW concentration (0.05 – 0.15 w/w), temperature (80 – 100 °C), and reaction time (10 – 20 min) was studied using Central Composite Design (CCD) of Response Surface Methodology. The phosphorus content, of FCW-assisted deacidification, after degumming ranged from 8.58 – 42.62 mg/g, while acid value, free fatty acid content, iodine value, and saponification value also showed variations across experiments. Linear models were obtained for all responses and a significant lack of fit for phospholipids content and limited predictive power for most quality parameters were obtained. Experimental optimization identified optimal conditions at phosphoric acid concentration of 0.15 w/w, temperature of 80 °C, and time of 10 min, achieving a validated phosphorus content of 7.73 mg/g (59.3% removal). In the case of FCW-assisted degumming, the best degumming performance was achieved at conditions of 80 °C, 10 min, and 0.15 w/w FCW, yielding 8.58 mg/kg phosphorus (54.8% removal). The study demonstrates that FCW is an effective, low-cost, and eco-friendly agent for degumming CPKO.
