Palm oil is in shit loads of stuff! - uninteresting fact of the day!



Palm oil requires particular temperature conditions (SC II) (storage climate conditions).

A written heating order must be obtained from the consignor before loading is begun. This order must always be complied with during the entire transport chain.

The solidification temperature is of considerable significance in the transport of fatty oils and fats. They must remain liquid during loading, during the voyage and during unloading. Chill haze (separation) begins if cooling causes the temperature of the oil to approach solidification point, the oil becoming ointment-like and finally solid, such that it is no longer pumpable.

Separation and the associated change in consistency from liquid to solid occurs more readily upon cooling, the higher is the solidification point.

Palm oil has a relatively high solidification point/range of 41 - 31°C. In its native countries it has a liquid consistency, but in temperate latitudes it is fatty and has to be heated. Palm oil is thus also known as palm fat.

The oils must only be heated by a few °C per day, otherwise the risk of rancidity and other negative changes arises.

The following Table merely constitutes a rough estimate of appropriate temperature ranges. Temperatures may deviate from these values, depending on the particular transport conditions.

# The amount of rainforest being chopped down in Borneo to make way for Plam oil crops is shocking.
Picutres shown on TV were bad but when I went last year I was speechless. Miles and Miles and Miles of palm trees!

Beutiful place though, wonderful animals!
