Huatai Group quickly assesses the most suitable palm oil production line capacity based on key variables such as market supply, seasonality, oil yield (OER), utilities (electricity, gas, water), budget, and expansion pace. As a complete palm oil equipment supplier, Huatai Group has long served West African clients, providing 5–60 TPH modular and customized solutions covering oil extraction, fiber/kernel recovery, wastewater treatment, and boiler systems.
Total annual harvestable fresh fruit bunches (FFB): Statistics include owned/contracted fruit sources, cooperative purchases, and reachable radius (recommended ≤50 km).
Effective uptime days: Considering the impact of rainy season on roads and maintenance, most factories in Nigeria have an effective uptime of 270–330 days per year.
Effective working hours per day: typically 16–20 hours per day for a two-shift system.
Target OER: 16-18% for traditional processes, 20-23% for standardized modern processes; 23-24% for high-quality raw materials and strict processes.
Growth coefficient: If the fruit supply is expected to increase by ≥20% within 3 years, it is recommended to reserve sufficient production capacity in advance.
Example A: Annual FFB capacity of 10,000 tons, operating for 300 days, 20 hours/day, growth factor 1.3 ⇒ Capacity ≈ 10,000 ÷ (300 × 20) × 1.3 ≈ 2.17 TPH. It is recommended to choose a small 2–3 TPH line, retaining the expansion interface.
Example B: Annual FFB capacity of 80,000 tons, operating for 300 days, 20 hours/day, growth factor 1.2 ⇒ Capacity ≈ 80,000 ÷ (300 × 20) × 1.2 ≈ 16 TPH. It is recommended to select a medium-sized line of 15–20 TPH, with either two-stage commissioning or a one-time completion.

1–3 TPH 20–60 tons/day
5–10 TPH 100–200 tons/day
15–20 TPH 300–400 tons/day
30–60 TPH 600–1,200 tons/day
