Day 1 at PALMEX Medan 2026: Beading Technology for the Oleochemical Industry
Shachi Engineering is at PALMEX Medan 2026, connecting with oleochemical and palm-based product manufacturers looking at efficient ways to convert molten products into consistent, free-flowing beads.
For oleochemical manufacturers, selecting a Beading Plant is not simply a matter of converting a molten feed into solid particles. Products such as Stearic Acid, Palmitic Acid, Lauric Acid, Myristic Acid and Hard Palm Stearin have different melting behaviour, viscosity, heat of solidification and cooling requirements.
This makes atomization, cooling architecture, particle size distribution and final product temperature important considerations when engineering a beading system.
Shachi Engineering designs Beading Plants / Spray Cooling / Spray Congealing systems for a range of oleochemical applications, including:
Stearic Acid (C18) | Palmitic Acid (C16) | Lauric Acid (C12) | Myristic Acid (C14) | Hard Palm Stearin | GMS | STS | SMS | HCO | 12-HSA | Waxes | Esters
Depending on the product and process requirement, the plant configuration can incorporate multi-stage cooling, open or closed-loop operation, fluidized-bed post-cooling, fines separation and automated process control.
For manufacturers evaluating a new fatty acid beading plant, increasing production capacity, moving from flakes to beads, or looking for a multi-product beading system, PALMEX Medan provides an opportunity to discuss the application directly with Shachi’s process engineering team.
Shachi also brings relevant experience to the Indonesian oleochemical market, including a 5 TPH Beading Plant in Medan designed for multiple fatty acids — Lauric Acid, Myristic Acid, Palmitic Acid and Stearic Acid.
