Palm nut shell separation system

Palm kernel shell (PKS) is the shell of palm kernels that are extracted from the pulp during the palm oil extraction process. The shell of the kernel is then removed. The removed part is the palm kernel shell (English name: Palm Kernel Shell (PKS)). Its characteristic is that it generates more heat than ordinary biofuels when burned, and its unique chemical properties can reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Palm kernel shells are used as biofuels and mixed with coal to generate heat energy. Today, many European countries including the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Italy have begun to try to use palm kernel shells mixed with coal to provide energy in order to ease the rising fuel costs and reduce carbon emissions.

Palm nut shell separation system equipment composition

The complete equipment of palm kernel shell separation system consists of palm kernel shelling machine, bucket elevator, air shutoff device, air separator, air net, high-pressure centrifugal fan, electrical cabinet, frequency converter, rack and other equipment.

Operation process of palm nut shell separation system

When the palm nut shell is separated, the fiber-separated palm nut core is first transported into the palm kernel shelling machine. After peeling, the shell on the core cracks and falls off, while the palm kernel remains intact. If the palm kernels are of uneven size, you can also equip them with a kernel grading screen to separate the large and small kernels so that the shelling effect is better.
After shelling, the kernel shell mixture enters the air separator through the bucket elevator for air separation. The air separator uses the difference in suspension speed between kernels and shells to separate kernels and shells. After the kernel shell is separated, the kernel contains shell <5%; the shell contains kernel <5%.

Features of palm nut shell separation system

1. Using air separation method, it is efficient and pollution-free.
2. Compact structure, simple operation and convenient maintenance.
3. Small footprint and low investment cost.
