Oil Refining Equipment
What is Edible Oil Refining? And why crude oil should be refined with Oil Refining Equipment?
Crude oil Extracted from oil pressing machine or solvent extraction plant inevitably contains impurities. To make the oil edible, the impurities must be taken out; such a process is called “Refining” Oil refinery refers to a series of refining processes that can remove FFA, gums, waxes, phospholipids and free fatty acid (F. F.A.), pigment, off-flavor and other impurities in the oil. Edible oil refinery is necessary for vegetable oils & fats or animal oils & fats so they can be used for cooking and frying foods.
What’s Edible Oil Refining Process?
Edible Oil Refining Process
★ Degumming: Remove gums in the crude oil to improve oil edibility, storage and do well to downstream neutralizing section.
★ Neutralizing: Remove Free-Fatty Acids (FFAs) with caustic soda (NaOH). Soap stock is generate in this process.
★ Decolorizing /Bleaching: Remove color pigments contained in oils.
★ Deodorizing: Remove disagreeable flavor and odors that are naturally present or created during processing under high temperature.
★ Dewaxing (Optional): Oils like sunflower oil or maize germ oil (corn oil) have waxes present in them. At low temperatures these waxes give a hazy appearance to the oil. So in extremely cold areas, dewaxing should take into accout when processing these oil seeds.
