Coconut Fatty Acid Distillate (CFAD) is a byproduct of the physical refining of coconut oil. It is a reddish brown liquid at room temperature. CFAD is a versatile product that can be used in many industries, including:
Palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) has many uses, including
Animal feed, Biofuels, Candles, Oleochemicals, Soaps, Vitamin E
PFAD is also a potential source for: Squalene, Phytosterols, Calcium soap.
PFAD is a residue from palm oil refining. It has a high content of unsaturated fatty acids.
Some value-added products that can be extracted from PFAD include: Vitamin E, Squalene, Phytosterols, Calcium soap. These products could be of value for the: Nutraceutical industry, Cosmetic industry.
Palm kernel fatty acid distillate (PKFAD) is a renewable raw material that is used in many industries and products. It is produced during the refining process of palm kernel oil.
PKFAD is used in:
Soap and detergent manufacturing
Personal care products
Cosmetics
Pharmaceuticals
Lubricants and greases
Biofuels
Candles
Animal feed
Oleochemicals
PKFAD is a yellowish semi-solid at room temperature, but melts into a light brown liquid when heated. It is made up of more than 80% free fatty acid (FFA), with palmitic acid and oleic acid as the main components.
Sunflower fatty acids are high in unsaturated fatty acids. They can be used as a sustainable alternative to petroleum-based materials in industrial applications.
