| description | Sterilization is the most important steps in the palm oil milling process prior to oil extraction. Experiments involving
dry heating sterilization (SD) couple with solvent extraction of palm fruits were done to determine the relationship
of palm oil yield and deterioration of bleachability index (DOBI). As a comparison, the conventional method of wet
heating was used (SW). The optimum sterilization treatment parameters were determined by using response surface
methodology (RSM). Central composite rotatable design (CCRD) was used to study the effects of sterilization
temperature, X1
(°C) and treatment time, X2
(min) to oil yield (%), and DOBI. The sterilization temperature and time
were conducted between 70 and 90 °C and 20 to 90 min, respectively. Preliminary results proved increasing temperature
and time of sterilization process increased oil yield for both SD and SW. Furthermore, the DOBI showed a similar trend
as the oil yield. Optimization study using SD gave the optimal response through a combination of parameters, SD: X1
= 90 °C and X2
= 68 min, where the oil yield obtained was 43.21% and DOBI 4.05. However, sterilization treatment
using SW showed insignificant results (p>0.05) between temperature and time since R2
value was 0.4368 and the low
degree of agreement between adjusted R2
(0.03) and predicted R2
(-2.43). It was also found SD treatment produced high
DOBI value though the oil yield was lower than SW. |
