Media that palm kernel process done by the exporter as a source of chemical used to produce drugs.

According to him, chemicals come from Italy and China . but do not know which companies use its main ingredient .Palm kernel have oils within it more than oil palm fruit so this became a commodity processed exports. This is what makes Indonesia a world leader in exporting palm kernels , exported every year up to 3 million tons .

In addition to processing into cooking oil , this also has another function as a chemical raw materials for soap production. Chemical content within it mostly glycerol and fatty acids that can be separated during the refining process.

" Actually , we selling our palm kernel just as a commodity . Other countries then process it into chemicals and exported back to us , "said Al Hadi who is Director of Market Development at the Palm Oil Producers Association ( GAPKI ) on Thursday.

He added, chemical content within palm kernel oil more than about 50 percent so that if these fats were processed further they can be used as raw materials for making soap .

Glycerol Substance with a molecule of glycerin and good flux , high water retention value, and cheap prices. In addition to being processed into glycerol by the refinery, this material is also sold in its pure form for medical uses such as diuretics or laxatives drugs . Whereas fatty acid is used as raw materials for the soap industry.

" Usually this chemical is sold to other countries . That price is certainly cheaper than buying crude oil , "said Al Hadi .

Because the main production areas of palm kernel within Indonesia, China  and Malaysia  then dominates export markets . If in Indonesia there was a demand for glycerin , all or most exports of palm kernel will be directed to China . And if it comes to fatty acid then almost all exported palm kernel oil go straight to Malaysia.

Palm Kernel Oil usually only accounted for about 10 percent of the overall exports of palm products ( including fresh fruit ) by end users like food seasoning and cooking oil makers that buy her directly from GAPKI. While the rest is oil palm fruit or crude palm oil .

He said that the small fraction of exports in general terms just a raw material for making soap and glycerol production plants located outside Indonesia so it does not have much impact on prices. But if this commodity processing plants will be built inside the country, certainly there are many benefits to be derived from it , he concluded.
