Palm Acid Oil
Palm acid oil (PAO) is a by-product obtained from the refining of palm oil. Palm Acid Oil specifications contain mainly of Free Fatty Acid (FFA) up to 50% and neutral oil, with 2-3% moisture and other impurities. It is similar to palm fatty acid distillate, however FFA is generally lower in palm acid oil compare to palm fatty acid distillate.

Applications
Animal Feed Manufacturing
In the manufacturing of animal feed, palm acid oil (PAO) is used as a raw material
Biodiesel Industry
Palm acid oil (PAO) is used as the base material for biodiesel manufacturing.
Chemical Intermediates
Palm acid oil is used to manufacture palm-based different fatty acids for industrial uses.
Mainly palmitic acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, and linoleic acid are manufactured from palm acid oil.
Since it is cheaper compared to crude palm oil, so it finds applications in the manufacturing of
low-cost fatty acids for industrial applications.
Palm-based Fatty Acids Manufacturing
Palm acid oil also can be used to manufacture various palm-based fatty acids such as palmitic
acid, oleic acid, stearic acid, and linoleic acid.
Soap Manufacturing
Palm acid oil (PAO) is used as a raw material in the production process of laundry soaps
