Precision Engineered Oil Refinery Plants

Vagetable Oil Refining has undergone sea change during the last few years, more economical technologies have been developed. Better understanding of the behaviour pattern of Triglycerides, Phosphotides, Tecopherools, Tricontenols, Oryzanol etc. has been reached. It is now clear that wherever possible Physical Refining route has to be adopted.

ADVANTAGE:

• It reduces steam consumption 30%
• It reduces oil losses by 25%
• It produces refined oils with no peroxide value.
• It produce no soap stock and avoids environmental pollution

The system is designed to fully refine, i.e. degum / neutralize, bleach, strip and deodorize seed oils. The Degumming / Neutralizing System are used as the first step in chemical refining referred to as Neutralizing. This step will generally produce oil with lower levels of residual phosphatides and less residual pigments and therefore require less bleaching earth in bleaching as well as help generate finished  deodorized oil with a lighter color and longer shelf life. The process design is illustrated on the attached drawing. The Bleaching System is based on treatment with bleaching earth followed by filtration.

The system is designed to fully refine, i.e. pre treat, bleach, strip and deodorize Palm olien. In the Pre Treatment section phosphoric acid is added to crude oil, which reacts with the gums present in oil. The Bleaching System is based on treatment with bleaching earth followed by filtration. The process design is illustrated on the attached drawing. The High Efficiency Deodorizing System can be used for deodorizing of neutralized oils as well as stripping and deodorizing of high FFA oils as part of physical refining. The process design is illustrated on the attached drawings.
