A palm nut-pulp separator consisting of a cake breaker, auger separator, hopper, 3HP electric motor, nut and pulp discharging chutes was designed, fabricated and evaluated. The results of its performance test indicated 90.05% and 419.92kg/h as the efficiency and throughput of the separator respectively. The results of the comparative analysis of introducing this machine in …
To tackle this issue, the research aims to develop a machine that can separate mesocarp fibers from nuts before pressing, enhancing oil extraction and quality. The study …
Numerous studies on the separation of mesocarp from nut shells by various techniques have already been published. West African researchers investigated horizontal palm nut-pulp separators installed after fruit digestion; these separators minimised nut fracture and reduced excessive oil loss from pressed fibres (Nduka et al., 2012). Separating ...
The parameters evaluated and compared between the new semi-mechanized palm fruit processing method with the nut–pulp separation step and the existing semi-mechanized …
The result shows that there were significant difference (p≤0.05) among the moisture content of the palm nuts, shaft speed of the machine and weight (feed rate), having a significant difference ...
Performance test analysis revealed nut breakage index, average throughput and palm oil extraction efficiency of this machine as zero, 204.51kg/h and 97.44% respectively. Thus, the integrated machine constitutes a veritable option for quality palm oil and nuts production boost in small and medium scale palm fruit processing.
Palm oil is extracted from the pulp and the kernel oil from the kernel. Cracking palm nuts to release the kernels is therefore a critical step that affects the quality of kernel oil. Traditionally, the separation of nuts from fibre is by using a woven basket to bring out the mixture of nuts and fibre from the bottom of the processing pit, and ...

2012. The influences of the driving power, P cake breaker speed, c N auger speed, a N and helix angle, of a palm nut-pulp separating machine on its specific mechanical energy consumption, SE was evaluated and quantified in order to determine the optimal setting of these operational parameters at which the separator will operate with minimum energy consumption as well as …
Palm nut–pulp separator is a unit operational stand-alone machine developed specifically based on a modified palm oil and nut extraction process which involves separating the digested palm fruit mash into palm nuts and pulp before pressing only the pulp for palm oil. ... The equation governing the nuts and digested pulp separation capacities ...
The separation of kernel from shell is a very difficult process. The manual (t raditional) method of palm nut processing is the traditional way of cracking and separating palm kernel. It is a method which nut are cracked using stones and kernel are separated by hand picking from the shell at …

nuts will be cracked, to obtain the palm kernel though, the nut of the fruit must be crushed first. This is usually achieved by the means of using the Rolek nut cracker7. And the shell and kernel will be separated by using a winnower (pneumatic separation) or a mixture of hydro cyclone and clay water bath.
Add water to cover the palm nuts and boil until tender (about 1 hour). (Photo 3) Pound – Place the cooked tender palm nuts into a mortar and pound to extract the pulp. Then transfer it all to a large bowl or pot, add 4 cups of hot water, and strain to separate the skin from the pulp. Place the palm nut concentrate in a pot.
Palm nut and fibre separating machine have been designed, constructed and tested. The essential components of the machine are the feeding chute, separating unit, pulverizing unit,...

The fruit from the betel nut palm tree is the areca nut. The mature palm nuts are brown and egg-shaped and measure up to 2" (5 cm) long. Although called a nut, this brown palm fruit is a hard-shelled drupe. When ripe, the outer layer develops a hard, fibrous shell like a nut. The areca palm nut is commonly called the betel nut.
A number of studies regarding the separation of mesocarp from nuts using other methods were already published. Researchers from West Africa have explored the potential of horizontal palm nut-pulp ...
